    I'm in Dunedin and I'm like minded @Curtis27 I don't know of anything set up but have been scoping places where I might be able to set up some longer range gongs. Bit of a mission to find a spot that is wind-protected, safe, with friendly farmer and not too difficult access.

    Does not need to be "wind protected" thats 1/2 the fun. Also you can use 22LR out to 300 if space limited, You can learn a lot from doing that.
    When I started 300m was a long shot funny how things change
