Thread: Ruahine Branch Deer Stalker's Gong Shoot May 26th 2013

Got pretty much everything i need for this shoot sorted. Targets are there, spare target parts, course markers, target and position numbers, got a chair, tent shelter for me to sit in, laptop sorted, additional power source, scoring system and spreadsheet sorted. This will be the first shoot i have ever run where i haven't competed myself. I think i am going to be kept pretty busy on the day with the running of the shoot but hopefully i will get the chance to take some photos as well.

Weather is not looking too bad at this stage either... maybe the odd shower. Am looking forward to it. Should be a good day!

You will trust me, ive now got 6 marshals not ncluding myself so ill be shooting and fireforming at the same timeany other gear like reals and standards are all here for us to use shooter numbers are hovering around 15 at this stage.

The rifle I intend to use only has a 3 shot mag. Is that a big disadvantage? Otherwise I will bring a 5 shot mag something else.
Is a bipod allowed, or useful?
I haven't a clue what this is all about,but I'm looking forward to it.

the more capacity the better for this style of shoot and if you shoot with a bi pod then bring it if you have it in your day bag and put it on for th long shots bring it.The idea is simulated feild shoot/hunt shoot if you get the drift?
