    I'm keen to shoot steel and meet you guys if the timing is good. I have 5 plates that I can bring along. A couple are out in a forestry block so I would need some notice to get them. Cheers

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    a bit late to be contributing here, but......
    the long range club shoots Saturdays over summer starting at 1pm.
    there's a couple of new members on the board that are trying to attract new members.
    I shot there last Saturday, it was great! you don't need to have a omark and aperture sights. I shot my ruger 300 win mag, and another newby turned up and shot his tikka with a 3x9 scope and went very well.
    there is a number of members shooting "FTR" so scoped rifles and bipods are all good.
    currently they are shooting 300 but will be going out further after xmas.
    so I hope there will be a few more people join up as there is a facility in place that if it is not used, I hate to think will be given to some environmental case's to "save"
    P.S. I would be interested in a gong shoot if there were one organised, if I can help with anything please let me know.

    Interested to. I would like to get a club sorted out here once a month but dealing with 1500 cows keeps my hands full.
    For those who are keen will be setting up for next Friday arvo Saturday morning arvo session to try and accommodate . Is still a trial thing as the boss is a bit dubious but we will show him it's all good and nothing to fret for.

    its a full bore range, paper only, but don't let that turn you off.
    I don't have a contact other than to say turn up at 1 or just after on Saturdays, you will see a tall brunette lady, Katherine. shoots a blue f class set up that nelson built for her. she is the secretary/treasurer for the club.
    cost is $5 for the shoot
    membership is the princely sum of $30 for the year.
    reality is, that if we locals don't support this, it will go the way of the dodo and there will be even less places to shoot.
    I missed today, and I feel really guilty about not turning up. but I got stuck at work. more on that later.
    I hope to meet some of you down there soon

    So will go ahead with a shoot on Saturday 10 o'clockish to when ever. Who's keen. Am yet to range the site but should be able to get out past 800 fairly easy
    Will be weather depending also not spending my days off shooting in the rain unless it's at deer.
