Sounds like grassies on

Man you must get through some rounds on your time at home, I've just loaded up my 10,000th round since starting pistol shooting, I know because I bought 10k SP primers when i started and just finished the last box. 2000 of them went through my Shadow and the rest through my Czechmate. Broke the slide stop a few weeks back and apparently they're good for 15,000 rounds, previous owner reckoned he'd fired max of 8000 since new so that was pretty spot on

Primers are how I keep my records as well.

There are a few hundred 223 rnds loaded with the same batch of primers but I have made them up since.

I would get thru close to a 1000 each time I am home. I just wish my skills reflected how many rounds I get through

Done and dusted. Weather was shit on day 1 but a lot better today, shame there were only 4 stages to shoot in the sun. Nice to meet those members that i did, sorry i didnt get to talk longer. Im aware that medals were earned by a couple of people on here so good shit

Was good to meet you as well. Pretty sure you won a couple medals yourself so well done fella.

You guys put on a great shoot. So a big pat on the back there for sure. Had a great time and a few laughs. Really enjoyed it.

I thought one of my stages was marked incorrectly until nzfubz ( has a sore neck from carrying all his gold and silver medals) told me that my FTE's and NS were that bad, I didn't register anything but a time

I will be sending your club a groomers bill for all the mud in my truck.

@Towely can you try and find out that Venison pattie recipe for me?
Have to admit I have tried a few in my time but they were easily the best I have tried including my own.

Nice to meet you mate well done on the medals

And likewise to you, roll on nationals!

I will hit janet up for you R93, watch this space.

I never got around to asking who was from here so didn't manage to put faces to names, was shooting in a production squad myself.

Well done guys. Photos of some of the action and the bling would be good.

9th place open and Gold Medal for Open Ungraded so was pretty happy for my first comp, will see what my first grading is. Was happy with my shooting but had ammo problems on half of the stages, why does it run flawless at a club match. Shooting in rain was new to me so will be better prepared next time.
Great club and good fun

Didn't get any photo's or videos, apart from this one, due to the rain. Still managed to drop my phone in the mud while only getting it out of my car once

I've just put my laundry through the wash a second time to get rid of the mud. Day one I shot clean, unfortunately day two a M and PT though I was on a go slow most of the match. Tired. Still lead down range.

Pfft!!! Amateur. I had about 8 misses and 2 FTE and a couple PTE's just to make sure I won the "Mike" trophy. They didn't award it at this shoot. Probably just jealous of me winning it all the time

Would have been good to meet you, you unsociable bastard.
I however do understand if you approached us and decided it was best to avoid at the last second

I was the groupy carrying all nzfubz's stuff.

Being the special needs candidate of the group at every shoot, they make me do things...

I was meaning to put faces to names...I kind of got sidetracked...and to be honest it was a far bigger turn out than I'd thought. Did you guys hit the Copthorne pub a couple of hundred meters down the road from the range? It is generally good for a post match debrief.
