Dunkield Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Christ, I go on holiday for a week and come back to see if there is any news on the PW beer and skittles day out, and find loads of stuff about competitions etc, I hope this isn't getting a bit serious Nick do you want me to print some of those targets on A3 or A2 for the 'occasional' shooters like me?

dunganick Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 some A3 ones might be good for the 200yard comp Any news on the deer targets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Just asking now, I have a few at home, I will check and see how many I have there - how many do you reckon we will need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Just asking now, I have a few at home, I will check and see how many I have there - how many do you reckon we will need? Not many, If we can patch or find replacement faces (i didnt manage to get any off my rifle club) then we should only need 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 OK I have failed miserably to get the deer prints, but I am sure I have enough at home, all we need is white patches and some coloured marker pens to patch them up. I have done 10 varmint targets in A3, let me know if you need any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 I was wondering the same, but thought better of drawing attention to it! Are you 'coming' along then H? (there is another free one for you )- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Blimey, I didn't realise mods were coming, I had better: 1) go through all my previous posts 2) remember to dress smartly on the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Nick, I have 6 deer targets, they are slightly small, so either Roe Fawns or Munjac hybreds I will bring them along, the only problem as previously discussed is patching, need a bit of a Blue Peter moment for that I think...

miffy Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 well if you change your mind its only £10 might have a shot or 2 then got some loads to try but i'll only get one chance to have a test run.........thats if it doesn't rain. I'll be bringing the rifle anyway so i can have a shot but i would have liked to shoot the competition.......i'll be at a disadvantage anyway as my loads will not be tried and tested. I wonder how many are fine tuning their loads and rezeroing this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
