Thread: Westland 3gun comp.

Bit more work on the comp today in between a few stages of shooting.

We are having a 10 round slug stage. Not sure what the setup will be but I have a standard shotgun, no irons or optics. One of the club members loads his own slugs and gave me a couple to try in my gun. I was going to buy a rib rear sight but after pointing the gun as normal and smacking 2 Alphas it might not be worth the bother.
Didn't think I would hit paper let alone middle it without sights.

Still keen to hear of any good rib sights if anyone uses one.

Looking forward to this shoot it should be an enjoyable couple of days.

Where is the range? Apparently there's a motel right nearby? I might start trying to convince the wife

Range is a 5 min drive out of Hokitika at blue spur.
Plenty of motels in town or one walking distance away with a nice restaurant at the spur.
I would offer you both a bed myself but have a alcoholic Australian mate and his girl staying.
Hope you can come along.
You can enter on the day or pm me and I will give you the contact details for the entry.

You could have used mine but it is in bits. Won't be up and running till spring.
There are a few around I know of that will do it for a box of beer.
If you are at the shoot and have an animal I will sort it for you.
Cold enough at home to leave in the truck for a day at least anyway.

Hey R93,

I am keen to come down with a few members from Westport to check this out on Sunday perhaps. But I've just figured that I am on duty for my employer, so will need to be cell phone contactable. What is mobile coverage like out at the range? Is it solid.

Thanks

I am with Vodafone and only get it at the bottom of the range.
Everyone else seems to have better reception than me but I wouldn't say it is great.
100 yrds back down the road it is perfect.
I would not trust it on the range itself to be fair.

Whats his missus like? Maybe i could slot in.... Hes a bit short for my likes...


If i end up coming, we'll come over on friday to grey, and i'll come down on sat, shoot, drink, sleep somewhere and drive back to grey on sun,

Cheers for the rifle offer, i think i'll just skip that bit. Just out for a fun day....




Can i borrow your new 40 though? I have a feeling that i may need a dq, by dropping it in a mud pie

No. I will have to retract my initial offer.😆
