    Had a great time and met some great people. Loved shooting the 458 Win mag and hitting the plate at 255 with my open sighted 9.3x62. We got a couple of wallabies on saturday night, but only saw a few.

    Yep it was very good, even better when I didn't scope myself firing the 500gr load out of the 458. I need to practice my offhand shooting though!! Too much time behind the bipod.

    Was a lot of fun didn't show just how strong a breeze there was for shooting free hand I think we all done really well. It was the first time I have ever fired anything that big. Everybody should have a go at it some time.
