Thanks - it was a great day - bloody challenging though.

A fig 14 target is very small at 600 yards !!

And what a great prize raffle. Everybody had a chance at a £3000 custom rifle, a .22 MP5 and an Erblestock case. Among dozens of other great prizes.

I had one N/D with the bottle opener but apart from that, all good.

Yes - great BBQ and nice to put names to faces - the social aspect is just as important as the shooting !!
