    VC, I am the fellah that looks like he has had a few too many bread and butter puddings reading the results out toward the end of the video.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question

    Re: AUCKLAND GONG SHOOT VIDEO

    You might find it a bit of a challenge to have a couple of people shooting at the same time. Most of that challenge will probably come in the scoring and just getting two people set up at the same time.

    Had a couple of competitors ask about positional shooting at the last long range event i ran. Postional shooting often is at much shorter distances - distances that i don't want to use my steel targets. So i'll have to sort out some other "reactive" targets for short range use.

    Having the gong moving while you are trying to shoot it just adds to the fun. Harry's was like that not only did you have to fire 5 in a minute while watching the wind you had to time your shots with the swing of the target!

    Yes I put one where the target should have been but it was sideways at that moment so got the big miss. Had a great time even with the wind factor.
