Your thanks are really appreciated Floydster, I'll pass them on to the rest of the lads and the Chairman, committee and members of East Coast Shooting Club.

It was a great day, I really enjoyed it and also the shooting. Lovely range and very nice to shoot on. Thanks everyone for being so understanding with the breakdowns; it was inevitable considering the amount of setting up needed, but next time it will be a lot quicker and smoother.

Some very good scores; including yours, and hopefully even better ones when people get used to the setup.

Really nice to have another range on the map! And such a good one too.

It wasn't me!

First time in ECSC and it's a cracking range, excellent spot for qualification shoots. Will be doing my utmost to attend all future matches there. It's a very interesting range to shoot on; I daresay we'll see some very high scores shot there.

Yep, just to echo what has been said before: thanks to all who worked to make a great shoot. It's a great range, hard enough to shoot on to make it a challenge but not so hard as to make you give up.

Hopefully next time I'm there I'll add a lot more to my score.

BTW Lads, what were the scores?
How did ye all do?

FLOYDSTER had a 587, I'd a 570, Conor had a 567. There were a few between 570 and 580, so given another chance at that range, I reckon a few of those (hopefully myself included) will push nicely past the 580 mark and start edging towards qualifying scores. It's a smashing range, perfect place for qualifying shoots. As Conor says, difficult enough to be a worthy challenge, but not so difficult you can't get hold of it. Wind wasn't too bad, easily enough read (though I fluffed some calls and there were a few changes too quick for me to spot - mea culpa) but the light was very tricky at times. The last detail had it particularly rough, any decent scores shot in that were very hard won indeed.

Here's a (crappy) photo of my match results for anyone who's interested: https://us.v-cdn.net/6034073/uploads/attachments/103325/108322.JPG

Really enjoyed the day's shooting. I had actually forgot how hard it is to shoot a 60 shot match! I,m practically crippled t'day. I woke at 5am this morning and couldnt even roll over in the bed!!

I'll have to get FLOYDSTER to spend a bit more time on the rub down afterwards next time

Anyway, thanks to all at East Coast & Rathdrum, and I have no doubt I'll be seein' ye all very soon!!

:cool:

We're gratified that people like the range, and look forward to seeing everyone back again in the near future.

All the hard work on the day was done by the NTSA/Rathdrum people - RRPC & his crew. So a vote of thanks to them for that.
