    Vortex Mountain Challenge

    Hey all, my shooting partner has some issues to resolve and can't attend the event so, I am looking for a partner to shoot with me. If you have experience in Long range shooting and is keen to have a go please contact me, $200 fee still/may apply.

    ATTENTION! The event is this weekend coming, sight in and briefing on Friday 17 in Wanaka, competition on Saturday 18.

    Cheers

    Mac that sucks am shooting with an Aussie guy who also lost his mate to work commitments and I couldn't find anyone to shoot with. I would definitely contact the organisers as you never know they might have someone else in the same predicament. Hope to see you down there on Friday

    Will they let you shoot on your own given the circumstances?
