Barrels for walls

[Out of Ammo]

My question is relating to 10.2.1.  I know you can't use supports outside the shooting area, but what about a barrel?  Can a shooter use a barrel that's used in front of a shooting area as a support for shooting at targets?

Excerpt from 10.2.1...

 

"...while stepping on or gaining support from an object wholly beyond a shooting area, will receive one procedural penalty for each occurrence."

 

If the barrel is entirely outside of the shooting area, and we can agree that a barrel is an 'object', penalties would apply.

A barrel isn't a wall support, so you could gain support from it, you would just receive a procedural for shooting while doing so.

Probably one per shot if it gives access to more targets

If the barrel forms the front of the shooting area then you can use it as support just like you would a wall that is used in place of a fault line.  If you have a fault line and the barrel is in front of that then it is off limits.

Thank you for the information.
