Rained... Lots. Shot stuff. Had a grin though. Got given a new AI hat and a pair of MSA glasses.
Ventured into Dixies Corner for a quick look and bought some replacement kit. Lot of good advice from folks on site. Would recommend.
WTF is the idea of the turrets on a MTC Viper? Do not touch the turrets with gloves on as your zero buggers off.... ?? Aghhhhh!
Counted at least 10 folks from URC there...cool.

I have been watching the reports from Diggle and Bisley with interest, not the greatest shooting conditions across the country.

Re: Sennybridge
Popped my 'wet weather shooter' cherry there yesterday Don't like shooting rifles in the wet! K31 crown and M4 flash hider had got some surface corrosion on them by the time we got home It was my first time out with the Schmidt-Rubin (ex Blighty) at distance, it was GREAT!
Saw a Dragunov on the line, was our Ruskie friend there?

Re: Sennybridge
That was me , the Dragunov was in its element covered in rain and crap.It was shooting nicely out to about 700m but need 54r tracer.I felt bloody knackered as didnt finish work until 11.30pm on Friday night and had to be up at 5am.Charlotte the flyer wrote:Popped my 'wet weather shooter' cherry there yesterday Don't like shooting rifles in the wet!

Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.....give a man a bank and he can rob the world!.
More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!
