Dunkield Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I`m ahead of you there m8, I all fairness, I think Dame Edna had the original idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 thats a good idea guys, we had this problem last year, through the course of the day we had about 25-30 members turn up, each potentially having 2 names i needed to know, thats 60 names to learn in 1 day. I never stood a chance stickers are a good idea, altho i feel sorry for people with odd screen names when wandering the camp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P03 Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I think I'll have to avoid 'er indoors for a few days after this......after a weekend of nothing but protein and beer I'm not gonna be that "civilised" :blink: I'll bring a couple of radios, beer, scrumpy, veni and rabbit burgers/sausages etc. Is anyone taking a decent BBQ or grill? if not I'll see if I can borrow one.

SPARKIE Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 quick question do ya have to have solid ammo for bisley or can you use hollow points ifso i know i can get solid for the .22lr but what about .17hmr and .22wmr as im gona bring them all to shootand is the ammo any cheaper to buy in solid form as .22lr is only £1.50 a box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye ive Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 We are zeroing our rifles Martin and it's OK to use expanding ammo (Even though there might be a competitive spirit enter in to things) :blink: ...........if you was to enter a official Comp set up by a affiliated rifle club you would have to use solid . I'm pretty sure Martin Cavie can explain the minor details better than I . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Blimey we are all starting to get a bit complicated, if you want to shoot to official NRA rules then you rifle must be chambered and proofed to fire standard readily available 7.62 x 51 NATO ammunition. As far as I am concerned we are there for a bit of fun and as long as you have insurance you can shoot what you like, as long as you do not exceed the range regulations with calibre or muzzle velocity. So sorry guys you'll have to leave the the .50cal at home :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPARKIE Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 nice 1 ill still get the ammo tho as its a lot cheaper to play with on the targets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Maybe worth a fresh thread SL? I would start by asking what people are already bringing and then fill in the gaps? Miffy said he is bringing some venison, so if anyone else is bringing food stick in here (or the new thread) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Stuart/Martin - Do I need to book before hand for the FMJ ammo (in .222 and 6.5) or not ?? ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Henry, No you just buy it when you get there, it might be worth a call just to make sure they have what you want though. They normally have in stock everything they have on the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 I am there this afternoon, I need some 6.5 so I will ask what they have, they had over 1,000 rounds last time I asked, but to save dissapointment you can email the armoury to be sure ( fred.james@nra.org.uk ) He only works one half of the week (can't remember which half) and he is a man of few words, you have been warned :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
