Shhhhhhh! Don't want anyone to know I'm using the same platform that was used in 7 of the top 20 places last year in Sportsman Class...
Oh, crap, OK, I'll spill the beans...
.30 FX Bobcat Mk2 ST barrel, Hawke Sidewinder 6.5-20x42, JSB 50.1 grain, 855 FPS

My prediction Fx or Daystate?, but in the end who really cares!, should be about the shooter and his skillset knowing his equipment, conditions etc.! Given the right shooter could win with any of the top air rifles!

, with 
pellets, and a 
optic. @nomojo65, exactly, well said. It all comes down to who is best at reading the wind and holding off correctly. There are many shooters attending that could shoot 250 with no wind...

I am going to use a heavily modified Hatsan Bully. Trying out a new theory, let's see if it pans out.

In the 75/100 (if I qualify) I'll be shooting an FX Streamline topped with an SWFA SS 16X, and JSB Kings. I'll be using this same rifle in the American Field Target.
The 50 yard line will see me in the spring gun class again. This time it will be with a .177 Beeman R1 shooting JSB Exact Heavies. I've not quite decided on which scope, yet.
Speed Silhouette will be my Armada, again with iron sights. But, since the rules have been changed a bit, I'll have to shoot from the bench instead of my preferred prone position.

The SWFA scope is rated for a muzzle braked .50 BMG which has the same problem as a magnum springer. The muzzle brake creates a forward acceleration which reduces the recoil. It and the Hawke Sidewinder Tactical (which is what I will be using on my springer) have not had problems with any of my spring guns.
