The 2013 German Open

Good going.

What do the Germans and other Nations shoot in these Centrefire comps? I notice from the Embassy Cup 2013 results that the Bisley Team won the Mannschaftswertung - .30 M1 Carbine Zeitserie comp. Do you compete against semi auto's with your Marlins?

They borrow 30 M1 carbines.

No - these are all different events and they are all (mostly) shot in different classes. For the IGRF international we shoot smallbore and centrefire rifle. For most people in reality this is Marlins for CF and Rugers for SB. The .30 M1 is a purely German affair - mainly for historical reasons. Anyone who travels can shoot a bunch of comps with the M1 and get yourself a classification with it for next time.
