Hello from Scotland

#1 Post by ChrisW »

Hello Everybody
I’m in Central Scotland and enjoying trying to make holes in the centre of targets with varying degrees of success.

I prefer the Military and Historic side of things, but do dabble in bit in the scoped side of things.

Hi Chris, greetings from Dundee. Where do you shoot?

Welcome Chris and you're welcome to visit us in the Highlands when we have our Military/Service Rifle shoots.

On that note, we'll be having an anything goes practice shoot on the 11th March, starting at the 100/200 yard firing point and moving back to 600 as the day progresses. 'a'bady welcome.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Most of my shooting is done at Castlelaw and Lauder, with the occasional trips to Blackdog, Blairadam and Glen Tilt.

Riflewise I am more of a fan of .303’s, but I do have a soft spot for my Swedish M96.

Andy – thanks for the invite. I may have to be somewhere else that weekend, but I’ll just have to wait and see what happens nearer the time.

What is the Lauder range like, is it full bore or small bore and where exactly is it?

Do you have guest days at Castlelaw and if so with which club?
