Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
Glen,
The problem with your assumptions is that most people already shoot only one gun (especially when traveling) so the number of competitors aren't "cut in half", therefore you won't double the number of competitors by going to one gun.

Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
Your assumption is wrong. There aren't two sets of people going to matches, one standard and one hunter. It is 95% of them shooting the two guns, so you aren't doubling anything.
And if you look at it, standard always has a few more shooters than hunter, so there are a few people that only shoot standard and then leave or enjoy the day. Rules stability is the main thing need, which we kinda have now

Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
I started smallbore MS in the early 2000's , had only one rifle, Anschutz 54 MS, didn't own a hunter legal rifle for
about 5 years, shot state and national matches at ridgeway along side Eric Amick, now deceased, who never owned a hunter
style rifle. if I remember correctly, there were always more standard rifles than hunter

Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
Hello ,
I have shot One rifle and left … many times .
You were there at least 2 times …
Further - I submitted MANY possible advantages to altering the present state of Silhouette …
You realize that - although you chose to comment on merely one .
My main point was :
What would happen IF -
We change smallbore Hunting rifle to 9 lbs ???
We allow vertical pistol grip - ie 54MS style stock from Anschutz design ???
I pose those two questions to You …
What is your response to those 2 questions ???
GSL

Hello all ,
I enjoy when people take a snippet of words -
Out of context and then proceed to destroy that snippet
For their own agenda …
I submit that if someone else had made those two suggestions :
9 lbs
Vertical pistol grip
There would be a much different response …
Thank you

Light and heavy, let's stop this hunter foolishness. Lots of folks are hunting with rifles that wouldn't be legal for hunter.

Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
I agree with GSL. What would it hurt? 8ozs! As far as grip goes, we're already there with the Old Nesika, Pharr, Wooster, Merrier. I don't see the difference. Just my opinion.

Re: vertical grip stocks - peace through understanding
We are also already there with the HS Precision silhouette stock as a hunter stock. This stock has been approved by the NRA for a HPHR stock and used in a couple of Nationals. The competitors using this are absolutely people of great integrity and would not skirt the rules. They went through the proper procedure and have a letter from the NRA stating that it is legal for Hunter use so there is no debating the legality. If you look at this stock it is nearly identical in shape to A 54 MS stock except for the pistol grip is longer.
