General Information

Centrefire field rifles may be of any calibre and chambered for any centrefire factory or wildcat cartridge. A bolt-action repeater is ideal, but any type of action that is safe can be used, including bolt-, lever- and slide-actions. The weight limit is 5.5kg including the bolt, empty magazine, sights and all accessories, except a sling.
