To clarify, is it £200 for the two days or £125 then £200 for each day?

[Ronin]

Ill check, but I read its as 125 for one day and 200 for two days.

"Clean rifles" Is this compulsory?

[jcampbellsmith]

I take it that this is another of Bradley Bourner's courses? Regards JCS

cleaning - you could probably miss that element, that is really a overview.

 

 

John - yes, Brad.

Update - I went on the Saturday and had an excellent time. As I got further out, I struggled with the wind, especially at 640 yds,

 

I've been on one of Bradley's days before and as before this day was well organised. The sleet made shooting in the afternoon quite challenging.

I look forward to getting to another of Bradley's events next year and having a crack at the gongs.
