Rained... Lots. Shot stuff. Had a grin though. Got given a new AI hat and a pair of MSA glasses.

Ventured into Dixies Corner for a quick look and bought some replacement kit. Lot of good advice from folks on site. Would recommend.

WTF is the idea of the turrets on a MTC Viper? Do not touch the turrets with gloves on as your zero buggers off.... ?? Aghhhhh!

Counted at least 10 folks from URC there...cool.

I have been watching the reports from Diggle and Bisley with interest, not the greatest shooting conditions across the country.

Popped my 'wet weather shooter' cherry there yesterday :squirrel: Don't like shooting rifles in the wet! K31 crown and M4 flash hider had got some surface corrosion on them by the time we got home :bad: It was my first time out with the Schmidt-Rubin (ex Blighty) at distance, it was GREAT! :good:

Saw a Dragunov on the line, was our Ruskie friend there?
