Worst day ever at Diggle that I can remember - cold, wet, windy - we'd have still shot (800 yd F Class) but the mist was down.
1000 yard Benchrest season stats next week - let's hope it's a bit better.

Sacked off shooting today due to the weather. Went out for a meal and drinks afterwards with my wife and grown up kids as it is Mothers Day.
Regards
Peter.

Today I was shooting my Ardesa .45 cal muzzle loader and my Pietta .44 revolver in the club's black powder match.

I also supervised my guest shooting my AR-15 and my .45-70 Rolling Block

I shot 30 rounds through my 1886 Mark IV Martini this morning before the rain turned to sleet and we went home.

Wet day so full stripping and drying out of the Snider - but always worth it just to get the Old Girl our making Smoke !

Hello
Going to give my COPY K98 sniper an outing this weekend, hopefully the weather stays a bit warmer and dryer than last.
This rifle is by far the most accurate K98 I have owned, and I have had quite a few.

Last weekend i was out with the 308 f class rifle testing two new loads. We only got back to 450 but the testing went well.it confirmed what I was expecting to happen.
also out with SGC 223 with 80 grain bullets, it really loves them.
This coming weekend its the monthly multi gun shoot on the Saturday , and a wee trip to West Atholl rifle club for 400, 500 600 yard shoot.
Cheers

Great 1000 yds benchrest comp last weekend - not perfect conditions but well pleased with my 3.7 inch group with the 6BR.
500 yard F Class this Sunday - or maybe a McQueen - or both.
