@Shootm

I have 4/5 or maybe 6 ish, 8, 10 and 12" plates here if needed. Got them off @Blaser.

I can cut some 2inch plates up at work good for 400 yards or 600 or smaller if you wish

What distance you want them at?

2" @ 4hundy will be OK, I'm getting bored with 3" gongs.

@300wsmPete if you could cut a few 2" plates that would be awesome. I don't mind paying for them.

How many people usually come along to this shoot? Is it a lot of sitting round waiting to have a shot? I'm struggling to find enough space to shoot out that far. Sounds like a good event

BUMMER! I would be fully into this, unfortunately the MRS is getting me back as I was occupied last weekend, and hunting this weekend. Would be a great event I am sure. Have fun all attending and have a beer for me

@MikeB - I think there would have been about 20-25 guys there last year, maybe a few more? You'd be lucky to have to wait 15-20 minutes between spots opening up for a chance to shoot. Probably less than that actually. Everyone usually tends to shoot a few rounds and then the barrel cool down as opposed to blast em all off at once.

Bloody good day - I'll be there again for sure. I have to make sure there will be at least one Tikka T3 7/08 there

Unfortunately I now live in Auckland - but all me guns are in Palmy!

Yep Im in, enjoyed the shoot last year was great, despite the weather.
