I'd be keen most likely... as long as another weather bomb doesn't hit.
You got a location?
location yet to be finalised but have two areas in mind, dependant on numbers
I'd be keen if the timings right :thumbsup:
i might be able to make it depending on dates, not sure if i'll hit anything but i'll give it a go with my old school 308.
I am sure all the usual crew will be keen. Its only locations that are generally the problem.
I keen, just need prior notice
Dont under rate the most versatile caliber in the world. :DQuote:

So possibly, and just to put it out there but SATURDAY 28th APRIL? Location ????????

As usual I'd be a starter, Check with Andy Animal as we might be able to shoot at our Kune range again ( My plates are still sitting there from last month )Quote:

If we shoot at the Kune range - we must go longer this time! Although I will need to extend my drop chart :)
Great I have no idea where kune is but.......... Im not sure if ill have any of my LR toys at this stage.... Prob just my .270 but its a shoe in to 500m & been known to get all touchy much further lol...

I'll be running the Rotorua Half Marathon on the 28th - so that puts me out :(
I am keen :)
Looks like we might have to postpone this for a couple of weeks or so, once the start of the Duck shooting season is out of the way :)
Sounds good - you better have that T3 7mm mag up and shooting :)Quote:

What format will this shoot take -just turn up and plink? or a comp under a bit of time pressure ?
Just the normal plink with someone taking turns spotting, Will put another plate out to 1200+ yards this time & maybe a few ballons or clays set up
Depends on what guys want to do, if they want a little comp then that could be part of the day
when are you doing this Philipo?Quote:

I shot out if the barn upstairs in the pissing rain out to 1000 last time. Not good with a brake though.
Ive another thread going North against south -of the north island of course -would you guys consider making this shoot that shoot ? A bit of fun and rivalry and would give impetus to an on going event for the future on the forum ?
