As I said, it serves you right for arranging it when I was stuck at work

I am up for a saturday or sunday, shooting TR of course. Any idea of Venue? Need lots of notice if not at Bisley as that is where all my kit and rifles live.

I'll be interested in attending the shoot with a scoped rifle!

I'm more than happy to embarrass and humiliate myself in front of a large group of people and then have to drive home in shame with my tail between my legs!

Can we have a class for pretty guns?

Would anyone be interested in shooting in an F-B(UK) 400/500/600 yard competition at Bisley?
If you haven't already done so I would check first whether they actually have F Class targets for 400 yards. It is a very rarely used distance. The firing point is pretty ropey. You may find it makes it more difficult to fit you into the plot, since you'll ned your own separation, rather than joining existing targets at 300, 500 or 600. Of course, you might be lucky and get your own space to fall straight back.

I am hoping we can get our own separation so we can fall back without any issues as it will be so much easier to organise, Bisley should still have 400 yard F Class targets as they were used at the Phoenix however I can confirm this once I know how many people would be interested in shooting this.
