Bloody hell, too many choices!

Just tell me, when is the first target to be shot for, where do I send it and what distance?

Predator class? Does that mean we can take a pot at Farmer Giles and Vauxhalls?

No it does not!

I will be competing properly this year and there will be a prize from the Shooting SHED which apparently I am not eligible for. Quite what the prize is or how it is won is not decided at this stage.

So, the available combinations are:

S-P(A)
S-P(B)
S-H(B)
S-H(C)
S-P(D)
S-H(D)

With the greatest respect, is this really a single grouping? Starting from the viewpoint that I wrote the concept of competitive disciplines that appears in the NRA Handbook (as it happens, 8 each of Controlled, Recognised and Acknowledged disciplines) this seems to me to be a bit wide for a "Standard" class. Or have I missed the point????

:lol: Shoot the B or C distances and everyone else can catch up! Send it to David or myself and we'll sort it from there. Shoot it whenever you get a chance - the whole detail or just one distance (5+2 at each distance).

BTW The extra options were added because people couldn't get time on ranges at the normal 'C' distance.

This year, Strathpeffer should be shooting it's competition at the 'B' distance but it's still to be confirmed.
