You can use just about anything. I had better luck with open sites than a scope. For the first day it will be all 25 yard shooting unless they changed it. The second day might be known distance out to 300+ yards so I would take a center fire also. First day will be a lot of interesting history, basics of shooting with a sling, a good cheek weld, and natural point of aim. Most of which a scope will not help you much.

You need a mag fed semi auto. You can do it with a tube fed bolt but it will not be easy or fun. After two days you will be tired and sore (or alt least I was) You do a lot of position changes. 10 standing, 10 sitting , 15 laying etc. (total shots might not be correct) but you get the general idea.

My second day I was popping 12" balloons at 300 yards with a M1 and open sites. I could of went out to 400 but I could not see the balloons.
