Hello and welcome.

This is the results from the egg shoot last year, 26 shooters and only one egg breaker (my 14 year old son with a standard Ruger PR in 6.5 Creedmoor), he also managed a 1" group at 300yrds (beat his father hands down and I was using an AI AT in .308 [goes to show it's how you shoot not what you shoot]). It is a fantastic day out, great fun and good company, doesn't matter is you shoot a factory rifle or a full custom rifle, bipod (which my son used) or a full benchrest set up. Why not come and have a go?

I eventually bought one of these Solar Hand Crank Self Powered Emergency Radio with LED Flashlight AM/FM Radio Smart Phone Charger Power Bank (Black) https://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimages-na.ssl-images-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FI%2F614mo8CEEnL._SY355_.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2FSolar-Powered-Emergency-Flashlight-Charger%2Fdp%2FB01MQJSZ1C&docid=jHZcXYwAX5YCvM&tbnid=Xv_AsC81ajvaQM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwi17eeZ3cPgAhWkrHEKHerwAqsQMwi7ASgCMAI..i&w=355&h=355&bih=931&biw=1920&q=Solar%20Hand%20Crank%20Self%20Powered%20Emergency%20Radio%20with%20LED%20Flashlight%20AM%2FFM%20Radio%20Smart%20Phone%20Charger%20Power%20Bank%20(Black)&ved=0ahUKEwi17eeZ3cPgAhWkrHEKHerwAqsQMwi7ASgCMAI&iact=mrc&uact=8

I have a Schmidt & Bender PM II 12-50×56 PM II SFP P4F 1/8 MOA (bought from Optics Warehouse) on my AI AT and at the range recently someone who was using a March scope upon looking though my scope at the target 600 yards away thought the S&B was far superior to the March (I was surprised). Others at the club have similar scopes to mine, however, there is a mix of SFP and FFP. If you shoot at Diggle you are welcome to look through the scope to see if it suits you.

I have an AI AT with muzzle brake and I have never had any complaints from shooters either side of me. In my opinion the muzzle brake finishes off the look of an AI, however, that is very subjective.

Very nice, I would like something similar, but in black (I have the spare slot!).

Very nice, I have always liked the Omega Speedmaster. In my opinion Omega are a very underrated brand.

As the title, does anyone know of any clubs within the North West, where you meet, learn/practice, etc? Also, could you recommend any courses? I have been looking at Trueways Survival https://truewayssurvival.com/ any others?

No - I had a look on Amazon, and thought I would ask for a recommendation - seemed a simple question. If anyone has purchased such a radio, would you recommend it? E. G. a number of the radio's include options, torches, USB charger, power bank, etc. is this a good ideal or adding complication, AM/FM or DAB?

Which wind up radio would you recommend for hiking / camping?

Good video. We all have different opinions on what is necessary. This is what I keep in the boot of my car, probably time for an update. I was thinking of updating my hiking rucksack and keeping that in the boot.

Agreed, sums up the "can do" mentality.

What a great day, shame only 26 shooters. Thank you to all those that organised, marked targets and worked in the butts. It doesn't matter (much), that I was well and truly outshot by my 14 year old son. For those that did not attend, you missed a fantastic day and the weather was good (even for Diggle). Hopefully see you at the Fly Shoot?

I agree.

I would ask the same question? I always clean all my firearms (rifle and shotgun) after use, irrespective of the rounds shot. Each to their own, I suppose.
