I have been playing with the idea of getting into benchrest shooting and possibly participating in the benchrest matches at Kenmore when they begin in March (this would allow me to get plenty of practice in and equipment ready).
As I understand it there is factory and customs classes, would be more interested in the factory class as I am just starting out, does anyone have any information on what the gun (weight and caliber) and optics restrictions are for this? Or any other information for that matter. I tried calling them but the fella I spoke with seemed to be in a hurry so I may just have to stop in. I currently visit Kenmore frequently for shooting my hunting rifles, bow and pistol so I am familar with the complex.
A final question, what sort of group should I be shooting at 200/300 yds to be at least a little competitive, I have no illusions on placing in the top 3 or anything like that, just curious to know what a respective grouping would be in this type of competition.
Mostly just looking to have some fun and keep myself busy, I reload so cost of ammo isnt really a big concern.
Thanks
