    Long Range Shooting Manawatu

    Evening all, I’m an experienced hunter and shooter looking for a place to shoot past 600m around Palmerston North or wider area. I currently have a farm I can shoot on which is 1.5hours away, but this takes too much time away from my family life, with 4 kids. I’m a registered electrician and electrical inspector and willing to help with any electrical jobs you have around the farm. We also have an AirBnB at Himatangi Beach we’d let you stay at for the occasional weekend at the beach. PM if you’re keen to talk about this further. Cheers, Jack

    I know there is a 600m range out Cheltenham way - possibly some forum members know more about it.
    I've tended to settle for killing a few distant rocks in the Ruahines

    Gidday Jack,
    I have a place I occasionally sight in a rifle out to 700 m (not a range ) in Marton. It’d be 45 minute drive for you. 200, 400, 500, 700ish gongs.
    I’m down in the capital but my olds are up that way, so we’re up there reasonably often.
    Did you just want to validate some load data and a bit of practice?
    Cheers
