Most excellent!
Apart from the Heathrow drama. What part of a UK FAC is hard to comprehend eh!
I take it you loaded all your ammo out there and didn't take any with you?
I have fancied doing one of the long range rifle courses at the NRA Whittington Centre.

What is there to explain? A blackhawk jockey challenged you to a drinking match. He was not seen until lunch time the following day and still looked like death!
2 of us loaded ammo out there, we took brass and projectiles with us, supplied by Extreme Performance/Sniper 1. Powder and primers were bought in advance out there and shipped to one of the FCSA US guys.
The other 2 shot bought ammo, that was manufactured just for them, turned out to be most excellent ammo too!
We could have flown with 5kg of ammo each, but that only equates to 40 rounds of .50bmg.
The Whittington centre is a excellent venue!
