Thread: Big Bore Shoot Kurow, 10th 11th March 2018

Ok Guy I've been talking with Stug and Jakewire and settled for 10/11th March for this years event
Format will be similar to last year.
Meet at Kurow 10.00am. Make way up to station woolshed and set up in the shed for the night. Depending on numbers I'll take along the Kai cooker and provide dinner for us , provide your own breakfast
We are intending setting up some different targets as well as the original targets, we want people to have a fun day.
After dinner hope to have a spot light for wallaby so bring a small bore to. space may be limited for this but will try and give everyone a shot.
Those interested please reply to post and either Stug or myself will be in touch

Book me in + my sleeping bag!

I'm keen! (Is .308 big enough?????)

We will be there

Weekend in the calendar Harry.

I'm keen as well, but yours is even bigger than mine. Iron sighted 303 be ok?
It will be weather dependent for me though. Leave a wee spot under a rock for me. I'll self cater

plenty big enough

Hello Guys - I hope to come along this year . . . now will my rifle do?? Its 8mm (.319 projectile), open tangent sights, and weights 6.0 lbs wringing wet. Its not an 8x57 but it is a Mauser 98, built 1921.

Sounds good. You can reacquaint yourself with the 9.3x62.

I'm sure it will be just fine. 319 projectile that's bigger than the 300 that my 375 H&H uses
look forward to meeting you

sorry for not replying sooner
be just fine. First year I only had the 6.5 x55 but that soon changed acquired with the help of Stug the .375 H&H. Be aware it is addictive

Thanks Harry. Not 319 grains, point 319 diameter (as opposed to normal 8mm at .323)

right on, I am going to try and rework my shifts, in out of Canada, to be back for this years meet.
Got plenty of time, to get back one of my med bores, 358 win or 9.3x62.

@matagouri. It's your weekend off. No excuses

Here is a nice looking .450 Rigby for someone. (Nothing to do with me) @Kiwi Greg you could fire one in each hand!
