    And what was the forum handle of the guy that took out the Toby 300?

    Highlight of my weekend was meeting our own humble legend @Tahr and watching him in action.

    It was a great event and I really enjoyed meeting people and trying my hand at shooting gongs. Wonderful hospitality too.
    @Dundee, I saw 5 and let them be. Took a pic just on dark after I had arsed up and spooked 2 of them.

    Firstly, a huge thanks to everyone who worked behind the scenes to create another cracker weekend.

    It’s a shame me and gadget had to leave early – but the ferry we booked home was the best choice time wise. Otherwise we would’ve got home in time to see my sisters leave for school, or arrived at our relatives place at 2 am

    Last year I shot out to about 585 yards with the lefty 243, and this year got out to 485 metres with the new 7mm rem mag. Ran outta time to shoot further but I don’t mind – because earlier I got to fire ARs for the first time. Cheers @Happy and @Tommy
    Fun to try out and shoot.

    Weather played ball on Saturday this year, with blue skies, sunshine and a bit of wind

    It was great to see some new faces as well as ones from last year. @Tahr, did you bring Tilly? Also brought Dundee another bottle of watties - because why not

    @Philipo, the auction was great again – everyone was in stitches
    “If you thought the hamper was good and missed out, you can impress the missus with …”

    “If you missed out on the hamper, necklaces, wine etc. etc., you can buy this dog basket to sleep in”

    Come prize giving time there were a bunch of hats to give away:
    Now, how to get rid of these. Oh, I know! “TimeRider, come and get a hat!”

    Weather was good throughout the crossing.

    @TimeRider it was nice to meet you and your Dad. Tilly was in the truck at the shoot. I will bring her next year again and I will introduce you to her.

    He got to 1050 no drama then got all ambitious & wanted to shoot 1807 yards.

    I mentioned it would be a struggle as it is "only" machine gun ammo & is trans sonic at 1600 in my rifle with its "short" 34" barrel.

    He had fun & loved it as did his brother in law which is all that matters.

    After all not everyone gets to shoot a 50 cal

    Come to think of it I have seen your various 50s shot many times but I dont think I have pulled the trigger myself?
    Might have to remedy that before fun is totaly illegal.

    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.
