Why was this put on at the same time as the Ungarie Bisley shoot which was been posted for a while. 2 Good long range shoots in the same area at same time . I know a few, including myself who wouldve like to do this shoot if it was not on at the same time as the Ungarie shoot.

Whilst unfortunate, is the date not the same as previous events at this range????

There is also the potential that this range will no longer be accessible after this event due to its sale, so when an opportunity presents itself, take it!

As for similar events, one is a true long range event starting at 1000y and the other is a Bisley shoot finishing at 1000y.

Both events will have its supporters, but negative feedback of these events will only detract.

Reminder Everyone ONE MONTH TO GO.
It’s time to start loading. Make sure you load extra rounds. You need 198 for the comp. I suggest at least 220 rounds to cover yourself.
Drive safely.
GO THE DISTANCE
Cheers
Cliff
