    Get your self a black vivid and write it on the toilet wall.

    That way you'll be reminded several times each day

    @BRADS in short words and sentences can you answer the following:

    Could I come for one day, and if so what day?
    Is there shorter range stuff like out to 500 yards (waiting for a cataract op-so a bit hazy at the mo)?
    Would my clicky scoped 6.5x55 be ok - and could I re-sight it in if its not on?
    How many shots would I need?
    Will I be mocked and laughed at if I arrived with a zimmer frame and nurse, and miss a lot?

    @BRADS is a busy man so:

    Probably, the first day would be the best
    Plenty of targets out to 500yds
    6.5x55 will be more than adequate, people use .223 and smaller there.
    You'll need as many or as few shots as you feel, but I'd recommend at least 20, 100+ ideally
    The level of mocking and laughter will not be from missing, it's not that kind of crowd, most of it will be directed at @Gibo for one reason or another. I'll mind your zimmer frame and nurse for you.

    Would you agree Duncan?

    I flicked off a total of 5 shots last year. Most of those were misses. Nobody laughed more at me than me. I'd never shot a target beyond 100m before the trip. Hell I'm looking forward to the return trip.

    Come on up mate

    You'll be most welcome

    There's lots of targets from 200m out to 2000m

    You'll be surprised how far you can actually shoot when you put your mind to it.

    You'll love it just for the comradeship if nothing else.

    BTW.
    Do you have a spare Nurse?

    Cheers

    It would be bloody magic if you did. We could talk about how I can get a nurse.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    All of that will be just fine Bruce, people use rifles that don't even have clicky dially knobs, last year there was lots of fun to be had out to 600.

    Id be keen to finally meet you too, and if you miss well at least you have a damn good excuse, one eye on the target and the other on your nurse!

    That is both a cruel and harsh proposition.
