Ha ha ha ha ha! Yeh I heard they make his lips and cheeks swell.

The target rich environment that Brads has sorted to 2000yrds looks stunning to shoot, spectacular scenery and a neat shooting area descending into scenic valleys.

Am seriously pleased with it, this is going to be fun.

Excellent. I am so looking forward to this occasion. Getting together with a well meaning bunch of buggers to honour the memory of a remarkable young man is for me something that I am prepared to do every year for the remainder of my time above ground.

Im with you there Rushy

Hey Andrew did you or Brads take any photos? I've got the hand drawn map but was going to overlay it onto Google and create a range map. Not to publish live but to print out for the shoot. If you are handy with google you could send me a screen shot of the range?

Will sort that Gibo once all measurements are exact.

Sweet as mate. PM for my email when you're ready I'll laminate some bigger ones and have a4 handouts for the shooters. I see a rim fire range there too

I'm currently making some of this



Into some of these, then they're off to @7mmsaum for a paint job.



Then we'll hang one or two of these on them



And see how many of you blind old shaky buggers can even see them let alone hit them.
@BRADS ...... Do we have a 10m range for the elderly, infirm and/or visually challenged?

Cheers
Pete

@Dundee

your range finder might come in handy to measure those extremely distances achieved in the jandle throwing comp

Just to refresh a previous announcement there will be a range shoot at Brads farm (central Hawkes bay) every year in October, the 15th and 16th for 2016, held in honour of our very good friend Toby.

All of Toby's friends, family and the good people of this forum are invited

Targets and gongs are provided and are being set up from 100yrds out to 2000yrds in roughly 100yrd increments.

All chamberings and calibres welcome

Entrants can expect a high level of safety and careful planning to ensure a great day and night are had by all, expect a relaxed atmosphere with plenty of good natured banter and fun.

There will be an area provided for parking, an area for camping overnight, one for evening meals, a safe area for shooting from and a seperate area behind the firing line for socialising

Many many thanks to Brads and family for offering his property for this event.



As we approach the halfway mark for this events organisation It could a good idea to read this whole thread again from the start.

Feel free to add to this thread if you wish to contribute in some way.

If a particular area is in need and i cannot find a suitable volunteer in this whole thread then i will advertise the lack here and ask for specific help

I have an appointment with the printers tomorrow as a very nice brochure has been planned for everyone attending as a handout/memento at the event.

I will keep you all in the loop.

We will start a thread for number confirmations early next month guys.
Quick poll if it's anyone's watching this thread.
Do we want to get the event catered, or are we all happy to be guys with beers on the bbq?

Local school or play centre/fire brigade would be prepared to sort bbq for a small donation.

If it's the latter food requests will be started in the confirmation thread next month.
Thanks

Keep it simple I'm sure most guys can cook a snarler and butter some bread.
And bacon and eggs the next morning if staying.
