Hello Ron, I have a technical question about the rear bag. One of mine, a leather rabbit-ears type which I use for accurate load development, is filled with lead shot. I've been told that it is not acceptable for competition use due to the lead filling. Is this correct?

I shoot F-TR with an AR scoped rifle on a bipod.

See you on Saturday!

What kind of equipment does one need/want for these? (I'm new to the AR world)

[Brass]

Personally, I use very little equipment. Just my scoped AR with a bipod, a rear bag and a shooting mat. The only thing I had to do is remove the muzzle brake, as they are prohibited because they bother adjoining shooters. Almost everyone else uses bolt action rifles.

All shots are from the prone position at a constant 600 yard distance.

And it's only 25 books to shoot?

[Brass]

Yes. There are small cash prizes. I shot two matches and won three or five bucks each. Not sure how I did that, but they gave a little cash.
