Before we have all out war may I remind everybody that the actual discipline is called "Special Snap" where 8 rounds are fired in 35 seconds with a minimum caliber of 0.330". Four rounds may only be loaded in the bolt actions when first loading and then it is up to the shooter to decide in what order he loads and shoots the remaining four. It is open to bolt action, double rifles and single shots. The original concept for the event was nothing more than having fun shooting 8 rounds in 35 seconds, it was never supposed to be a test to prove one type of firearm to be better than another. The discipline is very popular and is the favorite event of most shooters. I should mention that among all the people who shoot, and most of the BGRC people shoot regularly, there is en even mix of bolt action and doubles with the odd single shot. In the end most people whether young or old and regardless of the firearm type finish the event in between 30 and 35 seconds.
