It has been slowly but steadily snowing here of the last couple of hours here. Plan is to head down to the coast with the dogs in a bit :)

Yep, my shooting buddy and i were planning on a range trip today, but i cried off yesterday due to the forecast...

They didn't get the -4 temps right, but they did get the snow bit right!

Good point Kenny, I am tempted to haul the mighty Accuracy International out, it is always fun to shoot the snow.

No snow here (yet) but the range at Ponteland is closed for 'maintenance' so our booking was cancelled. I have to say that shooting is very cold weather no longer has very much appeal to me in my advancing years!
Even our indoor range in Durham is blooming freezing.

I'd have gone but my club range is in the Shropshire Hills and they are snowed in!!!........it's still t-shirt weather as far as I'm concerned!!!.

Dave that owns Minsterley Ranges said they have got the worse snow he's seen in the 18 years he's been there.
