henry d Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 What difference does crossing your ankles make? You only cross your ankles when shooting black powder rifles at 1200 yds on stickledown when flat on your back.......everyone knows that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike2 Posted September 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Sad News. Mostyn House School has closed after 156 years - the recession strikes. The shooting range remains open under the auspices of the Phoenix Shooters Association http://psa.bizhosting.com/whats_new.html - for the moment - but the premises are going to be sold, see http://www.aboutmyarea.co.uk/Cheshire/Nest...our-views-count A great shame.
