fruitloop Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I have 1000 rounds of 22 rimfre, 200 for the 222 and about 125 for the 17 Hornet but i havent counted them, whatever I have left to be honest??? If I knew for certain the moving target would be up, I might bring a big gun for some moving target practice but only 20 rounds. I got to reload some as I went yesterday and had a good day smashing the onions only got 100 .222 and 800 ,22 left so will have to pick some moor up Quite easy with a body that size, I doubt it was sunstroke as such, he just got a bit sweaty was probly all the burgers he had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fieldwanderer Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Won't make it to this one, due to not having my license (in for variation), being VERY low on ammunition, saving hard for my new "toy" etc etc But I sincerely hope that there'll be another later in the year? Hope you all have as good a time as it sounds chaps, hope to meet some of you sometime soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandalf Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Make sure you bring your own water! No tap where we camp if we are in the same place as last year. Poor old Carl had to dash about water carrying in his truck. Sparkie - Should arrive mid afternoon. Takes a little while in my truck and depends on the traffic on the A14. Looking forward to another great weekend. (And a little nap by the camp fire...) Edited June 6, 2013 by Grandalf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumfelter Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I could bring a left hand compound bow (in camo) if anybody fancies a go. p.s the missus will definitely be shooting the clays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPARKIE Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) wahoooooo its nearly here..... As Grandalf said its very remote where we are camping but we do have loo's. I will be bringing the generator so we will have electricity at night for flood lighting/ stereo and phone charging that kind of thing. You need to bring food-drink-water and stuff to cook with most of us will have bbq's and I don't mind sharing mine when its lit. you will also need a chair for round the bonfire at night.......Grandalf is going to have a few drawing pins in his to keep him awake. also if anyone has spare beer coolers that would be great lol I will be getting there about 1ish ill send a pm out tonight to those who don't have my number.....just in case. the post code for the shoot is DE12 8LN it will be signposted from the a38 ill be sticking a few pw signs up of the a38 so look out for them. oh and the weather has been lovely here and looks to be very hot all weekend so suncream and hats lol. if anyone wants to bring bows n the likes to have a play with after shooting I wouldn't mind having a play.
