When you get one to work let me know please, I am yet to intelligently calculate the 22C drops beyond 1000 yards, acording to my calculations it shoots 4MOA flatter than it should do at 1200, I cannot understand how such a round can get to 1200 in 30ish MOA and we have chronoed it multiple times....

Oh, come off it... :G ...dare anyone disagree with you or have a different viewpoint?

:roll: :roll: :D

I don't have a problem with different points of view at all and, as far as I'm concerned, I will continue to learn new stuff until the day I die. However, it gets right up my nose when I tell someone a truth/fact but they still bang on about how we don't do stuff for people/clubs.

Anyone taken a trip to the Tunnel Sports range complex in Dorset? Prime example of how the NRA is helping the regions (and he's planning to extend it). How about keeping Landmarc in line & making sure all the ranges charge the rigt amount - that'll be the NRA. How about being first to comment and help during Cumbria - hmmm NRA. And when it came to the handguns, the NRA did a huge amount behind the scenes but communication wasn't as easy then as now so we couldn't get the word out so easy (bearing in mind there was an NPA who were the governing body for pistols not the NRA) and please do ask the idiots who decided that the best way to show the home office et al that handguns were safe was to show them how fast they could get bullets down the range and how quickly they could draw!! Great idea when demonstrating the sport to those who are already biased :cry:

We would love to do a huge amount more but it all takes money - something we don't have a lot of - hence why me & my staff are trying to recruit as many new members as possible as well as trying to keep the ones we have. You need to be in it to win it - I think is the phrase!!

Play the foul card without good cause and this is the response...

Totally agree with everything Heather has said on this one.

Whatever we do and whatever we say certain people obviously know better than we do :( Case in point was the recent Bisley Live stuff

Noone minds constructive criticism but sometimes it comes across very unpleasantly.

We want to help, we want to do our best but there really is no pleasing some people who just don't seem to believe what we say!

Love
