Thread: BOP shooters / hunters

Was good to put another face to a name Mooseman, great to share a few stories.

Managed to be squaded when the rain was shining instead ...but then so was everyone else

Thanks for the write up Mooseman, pity about the weather forecast I think it scared a few shooters off which was a shame as it was a lovely day.
Here is some photos of the day
Shooting at the 500yrd mound

Trying to load more photos having a few problems

Great pics 17brno, its a great way to meet everyone and get a bit of practice in on a day with shifty winds , made things interesting.

Bugger, just looked at this and realised I missed it by a couple of days, still looking for somewhere in BOP to do validations. ☹️

Perfect place to try your loads, very helpful. As there weren't many shooters the range was offered to us to do a bit of practise if we wanted, obviously on a busy day that wouldn't happen. The electronic scoring system they have is brilliant, shows point of impact, velocity at target, group size and it's instant straight after the shot.

We are open on Saturdays from about 9.00am you are most welcome to come and have a shoot ,we shoot 300,500 and 600 yards depending on the program, we also have a 100yard range to zero your rifle before shooting on our electronic targets

I can't seem to post more than 1 photo at a time dont know what I am doing wrong

Had that problem the other day @17brno I logged out shut down then restarted seemed to do the trick.

I'm definitely keen for the next one, sounds like a lot of fun.
I spent Sunday up the hill at the BOP NZDA range sighting in a new rifle/scope and doing some load development, the benchrest was okay post-surgery but shooting prone might have been pushing it.
