    May I suggest that this thread be merged with this one and that the title be amended to reflect the correct date, Sat 29th June?

    Cheers

    June as far as I am aware Ryan
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I think 13 in all as a few have dropped out and generally id expect a couple more to drop out -so we have 2 liberal left wing pacifist non shooter soft cocks being me and Bobby -so I will probably have Bobby work with me managing the shooters scoring , timing and spotting and 11 hard men polyfleece wearing types

    Can I ask "ALL" competitors to do their best to make a drop chart for their rifles - use this link to get a free on line chart using your inputs

    Why are you not going to be shooting? I have both a drop chart and software (that seems to work well in the limited amount of time I have used it). If you are taking a BBQ then I will still bring some venison steaks and sausages. Will check with you on the Friday to determine what you think will be the final number. Hey on another note I saw Matt in Gillie's latest video. Either Gillie's lens was wonky or Matt has been nose down in the trough.

    I havent got a barrel that shoots the arse off flys and Matt makes me go home and cry with him kicking my arse .With he amount of people there we need better organization for both safety and fluidity - if I win any more my head will float of filled with to much ego gas --gotto to give back a some stage
    Dead is better likes this.

    even with 7 it was a good day so were almost double -Ill crack it good as long as the shooters arrive prepared .I know there are some that are wanting to learn a little more about longer ranges but that only comes with commitment to knowledge and time in the mud

    Good luck then, it'll be an enjoyable day even it is a bit longer

    Pity i can't make it along, Gem is heading up to Auckland and had already paid for the flights. I'll keep an eye on the weather and might end up shooting with Andyanimal anyway
