Yeah, this is completely brutal. I want a 9mm if I'm getting a hand gun. Lol

SFC currently only issuing exception letters for 22, I think 17hmr (maybe it’s .177 air pistol >500 fps??) too but I’m not 100% sure about that. They’re not approving anything for centre fire afaik, even 32ACP, which is what we use for bullseye centre fire

How do you send the proof that you are practicing. Any help would be appreciated.

for practices, just write down your scores from each practice, put it in a document (I put it in a text file), and upload it.

For SFC sanctioned matches, you need to have the link to the results of that competition, and put it in the form.

Thank you and how long my training needs to be?

Mws. Training about a month (~4 entries) is what I was told. Personally I did about 3 months.
