First, the closet two 1,000 Ranges are the Reade Range in Fallen Timbers Pa and the Bridgeville Rifle and Pistol Club in Delaware.
Now to answer your question:
You need a rifle that can fire a round and keep it supersonic at 1k Yards ( Above 1050 FPS ).
I have shot a 1,000 using a Vortex Razor Gen II 3×18
I am currently using a Nightforce Competition 15×55
I shoot a .308 with a 30" Bartlein barrel. I use 200gr Berger Hybrid with 44.1 grains of Varget.

I am looking to gauge the intrest in holding an " Introduction to Smallbore F Class " Clinic in 2020. The Clinic would be held in either Pa or NJ and would cover the following material:
What is Smallbore F Class Rifle
Optics
Bipod/ Rest
Ammunition
Targets
Basic Wind Reading
Course of Fire
The Clinic would be taught by experienced SB F Class Competitors

On 4/20/2019 at 10:12 PM, BullzeyeNJ said:How many rounds does it take to wear out a 308 f class barrel in your experience? Acceptable accuracy and velocity for the sport in consideration.
I " shot-out " my last F Class barrel at 2,865 rounds.
Let's be clear about the meaning of shot out. In F Class competition, you must hold 1/2 MOA to win a Club Match. At a National or Regional Match the rifle should be shooting 1/4 MOA. The barrel in question opened up to 1 MOA.
Barrels are a consumable items in F Class Competition. They can be purchased fairly cheap.

2525 if I've added it correctly without my coffee. Glass is another topic. Also, bipod and some of the other stuff that goes with it are additional. There are other mods that can be done to the stock as well, that is just the base price on the XiT.@Iggyort in the ballpark?
The number are in line with a Trued Rem action.
Below is the cost of my Custom Build. The McMillan stock was less because at the time Mcmillian was given out Veteran's a discount. Unfortunately , some entitled idiot ruined it for the rest of us Veterans.
The pillar bedding and bedding was around $200.
In total, the complete Pierce F TR Rifle was $3,055.00.

Tier 1 of course. My former shooting partner and I had our old F Class Rifle done by them . Tier 1's work is excellent.

I am using Berger 200gr Hybrid. The load is 44.1 grains of Varget.
In a 30" barrel , I am getting 2765 FPS
My Competition Rifle is single shot so my COAL is 2.901.
Yes, F Class at Mid Range (600 yards) but I have a LR (1,000 yard ) Match coming in June.

Today I received my Mcmillian XIT Stock after a 7 month wait. Now I will begin building a spare F TR Rifle with a trued Rem action that I have and the spare barrel from my Pierce Engineering F TR Rifle.
I plan to use the same Bix'n Andy trigger that I have on my current rifle.
The barrel will be Bartelin 30" HV 1:10.
The idea is to duplicate my Competition Rifle as closely as possible.

Yes, that is a " F Class Bipod". I will post a picture of the others I have used over the years later but I have settled on Phoenix which is showen in the picture.
Note, that we all started with Harris Bipods at one point.
Do not buy a F Class Bipod until you have tried all the ones I have in my basement. Learn from my mistakes.
I looked at the device in the picture. It is a barrel tunner. It is used to set the barrel harmonics to an optimal level for the ammo you have loaded. They are legal to use in F Class and are very common in Bench Rest Shooting Competitions.
I took the muzzle break off my Ruger Precision Rifle to make it legal for F Class shooting. Since my rifle is chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor , I shot it the F Open Division.
The match fees at Cumberland for the F Class Matches are $35.

I spent all last season running the pits that when I saw your picture of the line, that it reminded me what the OTHER side of the match looks like!!
The weather was GREAT
@Bully i suspect you had an equipment failure on your 3rd target. What happened?
You others, you don't know what you're missing not shooting at 600 at Cumberland
Come out and shoot!
@njJoniGuy
Don't bring this, when you have a proper F TR Rifle.
That is what happened
