Hi welcome, bring the 6BR down to Diggle near Oldham and enter some f class comps or perhaps 1000 yd benchrest. Very friendly club and tons of advice if you ever need it. Also a few fellow cumbrians from Barrow in Furness are regulars at Diggle (Les Holgate and Andy Carter).

Aint got the experience to shoot at those ranges plus its gona be a while before the br is up and running (due to pick it up this friday from a good gunsmith on another site) by the time i buy a scope and all the reloading gear i need dies,brass e.t.c but would be good to experience some shooting with those that know how to shoot at those distances
