Thread: South Island Big Bore shoot 13/14 Feb 2016

Thanks to @Harryg we have a farm to shoot on, close to Kurow. We should be able to camp there to. Possibility of some wallaby shooting as well.

So my thoughts, meet at Kurow around midday Sat 13 Feb. Travel to farm set up targets etc. Couple of hours of target shooting. BBQ and bullshit session to round off afternoon. Sunday morning wallaby shoot? (Will need to discuss this with the farmer)

Format for target shooting possibly

Big Bore (9.3 and up?)

3x shots at 50yds using shooting sticks, shooting at a scored target ie 10 ring, 9 ring etc

3x shots at 50yds freehand, shooting at a scored target

3x shots,timed. After first shot timer starts next two to be fired in 3-4 seconds 1 at 50yds off sticks, one freehand at 40yds, one freehand at 25yds, reactive type target (balloons, pieces of wood etc)

4x shots timed, shoot 2 shots at reactive target at 50yds, reload and shoot 2 more reactive targets at 50yds. Each miss is 5 seconds added to time.

Do something similar for "plains game rifles" but longer distances, ie 100yds instead of 50 yds.

Who's keen? Any other suggestions for what target format?
