Good day at Minsterley yesterday

[snayperskaya]

Had a pleasant day at Minsterley Ranges yesterday, I rechecked the zero on the Dragunov scopes ready for Sennybridge next weekend and also met this forums very own ChrisB and Tony.It was nice to have a good natter and put some faces to names and thank you to you guys for letting me put a few rounds through your rifles and look forward to seeing you at Sennybridge.A shooting mate of mine was there with one of the new GSG 1911s so had a go of that and I was quite impressed, its an accurate little thing at 50m.I also tried an underlever for the first time, a Winchester .22, which was also very nice to shoot.I passed on the opportunity to have another go with the .50 Ardesa pistol as the last time I did I nearly ended up wearing it as a bloody hat!!!.All in all a great day in the Shropshire countryside doing a fair bit of shooting in the (mainly) sunshine

Do you have to join their club or can you just rent a lane?

[ChrisB]

Good to meet you too Rich. See you Saturday.

Charlz,

Turn up, pay money, shoot stuff at 50 or 100 yrds. Good facility and not too far.

I think the visitors fee is £30 a day.

Minsterley Ranges have a club, but you could shoot there as a visitor if you have a valid FAC.NRA membership or affiliation isn't required AFAIK.
