There may be a team event but i will confirm and update as soon as i can.


Thanks.

Any plans to run a open medium to long range shoot?

Cass

That would be more along the lines of F-Class.

I have been talking to the lads at the MNSCI and trying to not only set up such a shoot, but to run a few shoots throughout the year. As said in a previous thread the problem is trying to find a free weekend. Saturdays suit the best as most F-Class stuff happens on a Sunday, but then a lot of lads are not free to attend on Saturdays so you have to look to Sundays too. So my thoughts were to run a few and have them mixed between Saturdays and Sundays.

The 600 yard range is currently being update with new target boards. It's been a slow haul as there is a new clubhouse, new shotgun range, and the Creedmoor coming up this year, but when it's done i intend to run as many comps as i can from 300 to 600. Then if lads can show they can reach out further i'll run 800 - 1000 yard comps in conjunction with the short/medium range stuff.

As soon as i can nail down some sort of schedule, and that it can be done, i'll post a new thread and let ye know.

I be into doing some of that if it goes ahead

Cass

Unfortunately the open days, and medium stuff died off when the revamp of the 600 yard range started. Due to the large size of the range, the weekly necessities, and the everything else i mentioned above it took a bit of back seat, but plans are in the pipeline to re-establish shoots.

I'm looking forward to it myself. Some of the best craic i've had are at distance between 300 to 600 yards. Its the sort of distance that no matter your experience or rig everyone is on a level playing field. Plus it's good craic and chance to test out your rig.

A big +1 for me for a comp ranging from 100-600 yards. I'd definitely make a big effort to attend em!

Cass

Just bringing this up to remind everyone that the comp is on next Saturday, 31st January.

Cass

Last reminder. This is on this Saturday.
