Hello

#1 Post by jcev39 »

I'm sure a number of people on here will already know me from Bisley (and possibly other shooting fora!).

My name is John Evans and I have a passion for shooting. There, that's better! :p

Slightly more seriously, I do quite a bit of fullbore at Bisley and other ranges when available. I've shot in South Africa a number of times having lived there for a few years and also toured to the Channel Islands with both the NRA and Wales.

Most recently I had a fairly successful Imperial and was part of the National winning Welsh team :wales:

Target, game or pest control. Not being judgemental in any way ...

I'm just waiting to get back there with the potential for some game - nirmally the type where there is an overpopulation issue or pest.

Only target I'm afraid - didn't get the chance to do any game unfortunately. I do stalk regularly in the UK though!

Cheers

We lived in Johannesburg, up near MonteCasino. Shot at Bloem, Piet Joubert, Heidelberg and other ranges though...

Cheers
