Another issue of Landmarc/MoD pleasing themselves. Our local MOD range bloke in charge told me to my face that as the cadets can shoot at 12, he saw no reason why a 15 year old in our club couldn't shoot but they will not put it in writing and our club insurers have grumbled at this so we have had to impose an 18 limit.
Can an NRA type assist in clarifying this?
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!
Theres a few members on here that are in it, all a nice bunch.
The outdoor range is shut at the moment however as it is undergoing some major building work but will be nice when it's finished.
There is also an indoor range for air / .22 rim fire and pistol cal.
I am going to contact the oundle club, there's a particular member who can loan me a rifle.
I should be a KD to commence fring there afte the imperial, and I'll get myself the NRA membership and club membership. I've read that the outdoor range goes up to 100 yards, does this still support target shooting, or will I need something like a pistol calibre rifle?
Never shot 100 yard fullbore.. The targets must be tiny. While that is closed, are there any pistol calibre/.22 rifles to borrow? I'm guessing yes when you write "rim fires"
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!
