Just myself and Cam (as mentioned above by @Woody)
soley shooting hunter class last weekend, in amongst a handful of the usual suspects shooting Tr and Ftr.
I shot 24.3/25.5 for 300 and 35.3/35.7 for 500 out of my 18.5" tikka .308 but my 600 wasn't very flash.
Hopefully all the "Visitors" will be along in 2 weekends time

Te Puke Rifle Club would like to thank everyone who turned up to our Bring it and Shoot Day, the weather gods smiled and we had light winds and sunny skies today for the most part with the wind turning to blow down the range fishtailing left to right when we started shooting at 600yrds after lunch this made for interesting shooting with the unwary being caught out by quick wind changes
There was some good scores shot during the day and plenty of laughter and good natured heckling
We finnished the day with a lucky dip prize draw and a BBQ and a few bevvies

Lots of laughs and one or two now "prone" positions discovered as well.
The deer on the 300 mound were quite skittish to try and nail too.

Poor old BBQ got a fright too dont know if it will be the same again! Hope you are ok mate

I would also like to mention again the great sponsorship we had, I dont think anyone walked away with less than their entry fee in prizes.
The food was pretty good too! That old trick of rolling it in grass was priceless!

Gotta have a bit of salad ay John. Greens are good for ya.
