Thread: Annual DOC Shoot being reactivated

I have shot at this event several times and is a great day and well run. It is held at the Wanganui Pistol Club close to the airport. Usually a full days shooting depending on numbers of shooters.
The shoot is made up of two 20 round shoots at 100 yds and you shoot prone, kneeling or sitting, offhand and the last is a timed (30 second) run up load and shoot off hand. You shoot all your rounds at the same target so in theory you should have 20 bullets in your target for each round. Each position is 5 rounds. Shooting starts around 9am Saturday and finishes around 4 ish followed by dinner and a few beers and prize giving at the Army camp just down past the airport. There are huts at the camp and a cookhouse which is used as a base for the event. Most people stay at camp and Breakfast on Saturday, lunch, and dinner and beer as well as breakfast Sunday for the price for the weekend, used to be $40 but talk was it was going up a bit. Shame it is on the same weekend as Toby's Memorial Shoot as I would have liked to have a go at that one too.
