HFT scope

[Bramezy]

Here are the Hunter Division rules from the AAFTA rulebook.

I think the rule is open to interpretation depending whether or not your scope maxes out at 16x versus it being capable of going to higher than 16x. Maybe someone has received clarification on this rule and can further state what is and is not allowed.

I read it as, if your scope has a max of 16x (or lower) power, there is nothing in the rules stating you cannot adjust your scope power during the course of fire. However, if your scope can be set to something higher than 16x, you MUST set it to 16x or less, which seems to indicate you can't change it during the course of fire.

Perhaps the "must" should be interpreted as "must not adjust to above 16x during the course of fire".

This was discussed before and yes, as far as the marking on the scope of a max of 16x and cannot be turned up beyond that but it can be turned down during the course of fire and back to 16x but again, no further. You cant range at 50x then back to 16x for the shot but you can range at 12x and shoot at 12x and back to 16x for the next lane if you want.
