If you aren't arrange to be cremated and we can all stuff you into cartridges or down the muzzle and launch you into the air for a proper send off

Very keen
@ebf is 9.3x57 ok?
You bring yours, I'll bring mine, we can have a little "smaller fellas" section all of our own.
Seriously though, apart from the possible need of gun bearers and the extra time it would take to run the shoot is there any reason you can't bring several larger specimens to either use or let other less well endowed folks have a go?
Marty, no problem bringing other toys. Same as last year, we should have time for everyone to have a go with various rifles after the last stage.
I'd prefer if guys keep it simple and use one rifle for the comp. It makes allocating classes a lot easier on my side. I'm happy to consider exceptions for the charging lion stage, muzzle loader will struggle there, but again, if we have a muzzle loader class, can always make it a single shot at the lion...
@40mm, on a serious note.
The 57 will be fine, you might get a mild ribbing for bringing the low-powered version of a undersized cartridge, haha.
We had a couple of 9.3x62s last year.
Guys, email with the brief for this year's event has gone out.
Received. Will comply soonest. Just need to determine cannon calibre this morning and then send a directive to the financial controller.
Entries coming in thick and fast boys :thumbsup:
Starting to feel a tiny bit excited about this one...
Guys, update from my side.
Obviously Covid is making it pretty hard to plan events at this stage... As an organizer, compliance around L2.x restrictions for socializing after the shoot is the tough one.
I intend to make a go / no-go call after the Sep 13 announcement re alert levels in Auckland.
About a 1/4 of the registered competitors are from Auckland. Two of those are helping with the running of the event...
I can understand that. I'm a committee member on my local club and we are having that same discussion. Last time 2 was easy to manage, but now the goal posts have shifted.
One concern is how are people expected to drink a coffee let alone eat a pie wearing a mask.😊
