Got some load confirmations to do

Anyone want to join me is most welcome

Drop me a PM will provide mobile etc

Tim,

I guess this is why you called me last night? Sorry I could not answer, I was on the parade ground with the cadets - I don't think the CO would have been too amused!

Unfortunately once again I will be working - I did think of you last Saturday, hope it was not too hot for you, it certainly was for me,

Was thinking I might go Bisley on Friday for the NRA SC, if that's happening.

Might join you at 1000 yd in the afternoon, will you have a marker or are you doing your own?

Be interesting to get some decent ammo from the Range office to compare with the milsurp I need to get rid of!

My certificate is back with TVP for variation, am I right to think the range office can sell me ammo for use at Bisley when all I have is a photocopy?

As an NRA member the range office can sell you ammunition without your certificate.


IF i wake up in time, I may pop round.

ENS,

I think we maybe met on the F-class weekend back in February? I should be with the NRASC on Short Siberia that afternoon but I can pop over and say hi. What sort of time will you be on the point?

Hi Shugie

Be great to see you there! :cheers: Come enjoy some "Recoil Therapy"
They - the NRA will provide based on membership card as mentioned above - bit you should use it all on camp!

Generally the milsurp will get to 1000 if your barrel is long enoough - but expect about 2 to 3 MOA
For once the debate is was it ammo or a s*** wind call will be valid! sign01

Hi 5-8

We probably did - you will remember me as the well built muscular handsome bloke with striking locks of hair!

I reckon I will be cursing the wind gods from about 1:30 on the point - will confirm number - till exactly the moment the hoooter goes!!!

When you done with SS - come feel the Mik-Mak trigger on my gun!

Steve-E still has nightmares from that one!
