I'm not sure if I will even put the proposal into the Minster of War and Finances (the mrs). I think that I will just put the money towards a new barrel instead.




So, now that I have gotten over my little wobbly about how much it's going to cost, and I've put the entry form in, does anyone know if they are squadding again this year. It was pretty cool last year.

3 weeks out!! =D>

Should be a great event, hotly contested by many seriously good shooters including those that have been putting in massive range time for FCWC training and have multiple finely tuned high quality barrels and top notch equipment.

Cant wait to donate to the prize pool...

Any updates on whether they will be squadding this year?

Hi Rod

I have read in the ATR that they will be using a revised squadding system to reduce the issues with scoring that were found during 2015.

That's all I have.

Cheers

Ammo is loaded and just need to pack the 200kg of "necessary" stuff before the 9hr drive.
Bring it on :D

Your lucky I have about a 13/14 hr drive depending on how many stops from Bathurst. And I haven't had a chance as yet to load all my ammo, oh well back to the bench I spose.

Jeeze I hope not. Oh well at least there are plenty of other Queens to go to being run on proper targets.

A few weeks back I was expecting to be there for the Nationals but have a few urgent building projects to attend to so it'll have to be the QRA Queens.

There is a Q-Store order waiting for me to pick it up. Are there any Victorians who are driving back who could assist? Its quite heavy (about 37Kg) so only if you have the capacity.

Please PM if you can assist. Thanks for any offers.
