    So, your shooting style in FTR may actually give you an advantage particular with quick electronic marking and a constant wind condition. The Ozies call it machine gunning.
    The fastest I've shot in competition was on a manually marked target at Trentham in the 2020 300 metre competition.
    10 shots on each target face, 6 times, in a 75 minute time limit.

    I shot the 6 targets in 42 minutes, with 22 minutes being spent letting the barrel cool between target faces.

    That's 60 counting shots in 20 minutes, an average of 20 seconds per shot. Had the best marker on the day.

    Scored 598/600, using a barrel with a round count of over 5500.
