    Big bore shoot 2019

    Been Talking with @stug. now that the silly season is almost over. we are looking at holding another big bore shoot either late march or early spring
    The format will be similar to the past. Who's keen this year ? @southernman when are you back in the country. numbers will be limited

    we have held it on the same station near Kurow for the last 3 years and have permission to hold there again
    We use the wool shed as a base

    .......Apparently 270 wasn’t big enuf, but 308 last year was. Or maybe because they’re still stuck in the 70’s and didnt want to get embarrassed

    Technically .40" or bigger, but the biggest last year was a .375". Bring whatever you have.
