    You are totally correct and can (has) been done. Its one of the ideas that we are playing with. not to sure on how it would go down with people though. Got heaps of ideas now for the baffleing, so now its coming to sorting where they would go, and pricing each of them.....

    Infact, just this morning, the decision was made to make a shooting "tube" basically 100m of concrete culvert pipe, and enclosed ends. For a wind free range, infact just like a indoor range with out the big building.

    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....
