G'Day barry,
FWIW the 2 day Victorian BR titles are being held at Portland that weekend, so Stawell might not get too many entries from down that way.........

and the Queens birthday weekend has the SA BR titles where a few Portland shooters go to as well.......

If you (or anyone else) needs the BR match dates to help co-ordinate any FB/F class shoots etc go to

http://www.benchrestbulletin.com.au/

and click on match schedule to see the entire SR BR calander for Australia. Nearly all of these events have been running on these weekends for many, many years so as a shooter, you can be sure of when to arrange time off work etc.

Hope this helps. :)

Thanks for that info Geoff, but apart from yourself I don't know of anyone else who engages in both disciplines that might be affected by both being on the same weekend.

G'Day Barry,
from Portland, there's Daniel Bennet, Roger Teal, Frank Selini, Steve & Helen Davis, Terry Green and others I cannot recall off hand...........

They have all shot at either Stawell or Horsham opm's. Frank was at the last Castlemaine opm in November as well. I seem to recall that there was a very big contingent at the Horsham event a few years ago. maybe someone else can elaborate?

The last I heard was that the Portland shooters had had enough of "making up " FO numbers. Has there been a change of mind?

G'Day Barry,
I cannot say as it was last November that I saw them and we didn't really discuss it. Too busy shooting and having fun!

I have grave fears about F-Open numbers at this shoot. Is anyone intending to go, or do you know of someone who says they'll be there?

Welcome back Wayne. Your ex-rifle had its first outing as a 6BR on Saturday. It doesn't seem to like me but a couiple of the others had good shoots with it.
