Once again Ray, Huntervixen, and myself ventured out to Severnside, this time with the welcome addition of DaveT (who I believe is a member of severnside?) and Bnz41.

Weather couldn't have been better, nice and sunny with bugger all wind.
Some interesting firearms one the point, especially Huntervixens new Lithgow L1A1, Ray's Vz.58 (still very jealous of that) and Bnz41's M14.

We stuck to 100m from 10 till 2/3ish then move back to 200 mards (at which point I had to leave). Most of us were doing group testing for the majority of the shoot, John with his L1A1, me with my Carcano and No.5 and Bnz with his M14. Then it devolved into a more general plink with Ray and myself nailing 6" tiles (and then what remained of them thereafter).
Not many photos taken sadly, but this is what I have.

Good stuff!

Didn't nkow you had the No. 5 with you...!

As I said on Facebook, I'd have much rather been there that stuck at work... even more-so now I know you had the no. 5 with you!!

Great photos :)
