The Competition Dynamics Team Challenge involves a lot of shooting and movement with all of your equipment. Having good glass and accurate rifles as part of the loadout are essential. Given that movement is on the clock for the large field courses, not being loaded down with heavy rifles and superfluous gear makes a difference.

Aw, this was a really good post. Taking the time and actual effort to generate a really good article… but what can I say… I put things off a whole lot and never seem to get anything done.| а
