Thread: Nelson event

In with a grin if the stars align work wise.

More gongs the better for maybe a play after? Have 28 set up at moment just needs morning to hang broken ones back up or replace but can do all that the day before I'll sort some dates and put them up soon.

With scoring system. Times and shot limits, will be limited to 338s at the top end

Not so interested in scoring but interested in actually having somewhere to shoot more than 200y

If its on a weekend and a couple guys from the NI ( @Gillie , @Philipo )are keen to make a weekend mission outta it, I could very well be keen

MY work is fully weather depending, i must work "a lot" to afford a trip up "north"(Nelson and Taihape(manawatu)) but i am very keen if i dates are available in a little while in advance…
Bring it on!

I might be tempted even to just come and watch.

I suppose I'd have to use another shooting position from the usual standing or sitting behind a bipod.

Id come up for first day, then steal cams or mikees gps and go for a fush on the sunday

@MunseyYou don't need to steal my GPS, I'll gladly give you all my marks, not like I use them much.

@gadgetman you are welcome to either either of my rifles if I m there.

I'm actually keen to see what I can to with the rifles I have. Nothing flash but just to see what I can do with them. I have been looking at a couple with longer legs than the 243 and the old 308.

Its amazing how far you can shoot a .243 with a bit of gear & knowledge, same can't be said for the old 308 cause everyone knows they are crap......

It is a very well used old 308 too but I like it. Sitting on 1moa with any old ammo so far. I might have to work up a load for it and swap off the 4x32 Weaver.

Well I got a flash harry rifle thingy and guess what all the deer I have shot so far with it (all 2 of them) were well closer than 150 yards and I could have shot them with anything EVEN a 308 that EVERYONE knows is shit

hope you make it up

Gadget has rifles!
