Cheers

Are you giving it a go Dougie or is that shoulder buggered?
[QUOTE=redbang;33808]Due to recent venue failure, anyone in ChCh have somewhere we could do this thing, pretty please !:)Quote:

North vs South on the range infact! Fark I'll be buggered if the shrimp beats me! :ORLY:Quote:

Well, shoulder is FINE! Yussss...obviously the answer to my problems if just to use a 22 for the majority of the time and only crack off a few well aimed 243 rounds. The story will come later once somebody emails me pics!
Anyway my wee mate and I did this shoot on Saturday morning. It was super fun :thumbsup: I hope I still show the same enthusiasm when the scores are out! Gillie I'll send my targets off in the post tomorrow if I can be arsed. Cam had me up all night last night! :ORLY:;)
Or you had Cam up all night:pacman:Quote:

Well done team,I heard a little of the adventure.:cool::D
Aaah just did mine in a rush today. Was doing well up to that fucking cat! The 22 shooting subs was not the best choice for the 100m:x_x: Had to crank the scope all the way up to 5 X :P My mate held up the NI end though with a damn tight group even with his fixed 4X.
Good to see some more entries. PM sent Dougie and Kiwijames.
I figured the 30 second time limit on the 100m target would stop people putting up wind flags and taking their time shooting the best group ever. In my limited experience wild cats are difficult to stalk and don't ussually hang round so fast accurate shooting sometimes at distance is required. Hence the time limit!
Still waiting to receive your PM Dundee if you want me to send you some targets. Last time i printed some of these targets i printed off about 30 of each so i'd be happy to send you a few of each.
Got two more lots of shot targets (other than Dougie and Kiwijames) this morning. So far we have about twice as many North Island entries and we have South Island entries. Based on targets i have scored so far the entire South Island is resting on the sharp shooting of Vietnamcam!
I have to admit though that is probably not a bad plan based on averages!
Shit id better put the effort in and re shoot it with a decent scope!
Im still in , not that I will help the averages at all.but it wil be the last week before i can get it done.
I'm excited to hear the results :thumbsup: I think Dave and I will equally bring the island averages down haha sorry boys!
YESSS!!!! :yuush: Thats the attitude we need to bring down the South Island average!Quote:

After re-reading the rules i never stipulated. So, in the interest of bringing down the South....Quote:

:thumbsup: lets just hope people in the north will still like me after this then!
Yeah Gille watch them Southy's
I think you'll be fine. Its all fun and games anyway! ;) I will always promote a competition that has an ultimate winner but while competing i tend to believe you should compete against yourself first and foremost. So if you had fun and thought your score was pretty good knowing your own ability then great, you did fine. If you thought you should have done better than i guess you should have practiced more!Quote:

Don't forget we are talking averages here as well. The north island has several good scores already in so the addition of a "low" score has minimal impact. The south island has one quite good score in and so a second "lower" score will have a relatively large impact. Hmmmm... if i am running the shoot and have a vested interest in the North Island winning is that a conflict of interest!?!! Nah, definately not! :P
Cheers Gillie got all those targets tonight now will have too go back thru this thread too read the rules.Might have a go on the weekend.
Post 4 yep got it sorted.Thanks Gillie:thumbsup:
Had a bit of a shoot today but will have too wait for a time keeper.12 secs too load the mag for the bolt action .22 .
Not as easy as it looks but will be fun.
Possom trapper and I shot at the rabbit and magpie today.
35 seconds to load the mag and shoot was just enough time for the rabbit.
Mrs D and Sean Dundee had 5 shots at the rabbit but they couldn't make the time limit so won't be entering.
Heres the boys checking the target at 25metres
Attachment 2698
And these are the targets possom trapper and I shot,mine are on the left
Attachment 2699

Well done Daniel on that Magpie!!

Like too say thanks too Gillie that was a lot of fun. Will scan them and send them off to Gillie.
Rifle used .22lr model 14p stirling bolt action with a 4x32 scope. Ammo was winchester .22lr 36gr hollow point
Thanks Dundee, got your targets in my email. I'll get round to scoring them tonight. I don't think that cat of yours really needed that 5th shot anyway. First 4 all would have killed it i think!
You have to run another one Gillie. I have no printer ink an as we live rurally its unlikely I will get some by the time I fly back to work on Wed.
We were supposed to do it yesterday and someone forgot all the targets and such, even forgot to bring his rifle. Thats what you get when you let your wife drink I spose.
Our other offsider that was supposed to shoot has the feeble excuse of almost dying from a burst appendix so you can see we are a sad pack of bastards.:D
Ha! Excuses, excuses mate! :ORLY: Still a week and more till the cut off date so we will see if the south island can rustle up some competition.
I didn't want to have to extend the date but i can do. If we extend the entry cut off date till say October 15th that would be fine with me but i'll be out of contact for a couple of weeks in Spetember.
How many entries so far Gillie? Whos winning at this stage North or South?
And do you take the average/mean or median of the scores?
I beter pull finger, when i first saw this and thought 'yea' ill give it ago, i hadnt read the rules, how ever i will slip in that im South island, that should keep the North score up there
ok bit of an update for you i have scored 8 entries so far. Still only the one from the south island so far! As suspected the south island have put their faith in Wietnamcam and are winning with their average over the north island. :P
I am aware of about 4-6 other people who have shot and i haven't got their targets yet! Those people and anyone else still wanting to enter have a week to get their targets to me. I also have a few people who have entered who i haven't heard back from!
:cool: and I couldnt see the cat LOL
Bugger, I need Dave to get his targets in to bring the south island score down haha.
Abe Adam and Dave might get there shit together yet (first for everything LOL) and rocket the rednecks to a untouchable first.
