Range is open tomorrow (Saturday) meet at 9.30 to 9.45am at the yard.
The range will most likely be closed for calving for October and November at this stage.
I will inform if it is open or not.
@Cowboy how was the shoot?
The range day was good Blair, we had 10 people. Nice bit of wind. Some of the guys from gun city chch turned up to have a look at the end. Nick is a bout to invest in some magnetospeed t1000 hit indicators. We’ve also got a trying target to make up for November. And a few more smaller targets to go up.
All info and prices are up for schools through to the end of January.
The range at this stage will be open in November hopefully but will be the 1st or 3rd weekend of the month. As there is a match in Reefton and I think there is the Toby shoot on on the 2nd weekend.
Nick had also invested a small fortune in automatic clay Traps and is planning to have a course for corporate and stag doo type events by the end of the year.
Any more info she sparrowhawknz on their web or on Facebook.
Supposed to be trueing target, set at 800m which will have a 3” strip through the middle so you can see if your dope is high or low so you can true up bullet BC to your rifle.
Do you know if it will be open the second Saturday in December?

Practical Rifle Course
Practical Rifle is for those who want a comprehensive course in the essential elements of field rifle-craft, especially useful for hunters and those emplyed in pest control. Whether a novice or a shooter who wants to enhance existing skills, this course will challenge and strengthen your marksmanship where it really counts -- in the field. The class will provide a thorough understanding of exterior and terminal ballistics at ranges from 25 to 300m, and students will learn to hit quickly from standing, kneeling, squatting, sitting and prone positions. You will shoot in simulators paralleling conditions in the field, with an emphasis on quick target acquisition at extended and unknown ranges. By the end of your course, if you can see it, you’ll probably be able to hit it – on demand and under time pressure.
