<br/><br/>300m FACTORY CLASS RULES
<br/>300 Metre Fly 'Factory' Class -Wagga (only applies to fly matches -not to Wagga club competition)
<br/>The rules have been drafted to reflect what is most commonly used in the field, both in terms of makes and models and common accuracy tweaks. Rules Any standard rifle from a major manufacturer (no catalogued 'target' models or custom shop versions). A list of specialist makers whose rifles is always changing as new gear comes on the market. Each rifle will be scrutineered in advance. If in doubt please email the match director with your guns full details.
<br/> Single shot models are permitted. Allowable modifications are limited to action bedding, barrel free-floating, altering length of pull and adjustment, alteration or replacement of trigger (trigger must be safe, that is it must not discharge if the butt is bumped firmly on a hard surface). Stock to retain its original shape and weight with a fore-end no wider than two and one half inches (2.5"). No attachments other than a bi-pod if desired. Barrel replacement limited to a similar profile to the original available in that model in either the original or other catalogued calibre for that model. Barrel may come from the original maker or an aftermarket supplier. A factory round must chamber in the replacement barrel. Weight is limited to 5. 000kg ( as Wagga scales are certified as being accurate to +!- 5 grams (0.005kg)) a reading on these scales up to and including5.005kg meets the weight requirement. Scope power limited to 25X. Higher powered variables to be set at 25X and taped. Muzzle brakes are NOT permitted. If factory fitted and not readily removable they must be sleeved to make them non-functional. Rifles may be shot from sand-bag type rests or from a bi-pod. Magazines, when fitted, may NOT be loaded. All shots to be taken from single loading only. In the event of a dispute regarding eligibility for the class the decision of the protest committee is final. Conduct of matches as per normal Fly rules. Specialist Makers (incomplete list) - HS Precision, Robar, Christensen, Cooper, etc

Hi All, I’m posting this message to let people know that we’ve got a new place to go for information on our discipline and the events where it is happening.
<br/><br/>The Nabble platform that this forum is operated through has been a little problematic for people to interact with for a little while now, making it difficult for those of us trying to advertise events to do so easily and making it difficult for everyone else to interact and share information.
<br/><br/>Matty Riches has spent a lot of time working on this new site for us : www.flyshooter.com.au so please pass on your thanks for his contribution our sport when you see him!
<br/><br/>Cheers,

While I was able to search the forum and find some targets I though it would be beneficial if there was a thread where people could post some of their targets and maybe list their rifle, action, barrel etc the projectile, powder, AOL, etc. This could be handy for shooters just getting into the sport to see what equipment is being used .
<br/><br/>To get the ball rolling these are the current (as of 12/03/2018) records most of us covet.
<br/><br/>This one definitely deserves to be at the top of the list.

Well the WA Fly State Titles are done and dusted and was sponsored by Nightforce and Barry and Sons Firearms
<br/>on Saturday we the 500m DF LG and then HG. we were not blessed with good weather but storms and winds up to 50km/h but we soldered through with some rain during the shoot and very tricky winds coming straight as us flicking all over the place and nothing consistent..
<br/>Just as we finished LG the heavens opened up and we were delayed for about 1.5 hours over lunch.
<br/> When then got started and completed our HG warmers then the rains came again and another 30min delay as we couldn't even see the targets.
<br/>but once the rain stopped the conditions got better and we had a consistent wind straight across the range left to right and score picked up for HG

I am in the market for a Farley, Lenzi or SEB mini. I have the MAXI and it's too big for BR but perfect for fly. I'll be at the Nationals, and happy to pick up there or anywhere between Gladstone and Wagga.
