What type of shooting would you say we do in the LPSC then bladders Maybe not all our formats are practical rifle it seems.i am sure you shoot prone in CSR at 600yds and 300yds In the Methuen comp there is 300yds prone in amongst the csr type shooting that the LPSC won back last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LPSC lost its way years ago. From being a premier Practical Rifle club that hosted events such as the PR Nationals (I'm still reigning champion BTW) and The Kemble ETR match that both used to attract big attendances, all you do now is shoot 1000 snaps, McQueens and some Gallery Rifle. It's no wonder one of your members has just defected to our club due to boredom You're a shadow of what you once were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted February 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Ive never looked into the meaning of practical rifle. We shoot. 1000yds snaps 600yds snaps 200 and 300yds McQueen's We do Methuen practice and the comp In the gallery we shoot lots of different formats that are standing.sitting and kneeling. We do the bianchi once a year. I joined the London (Practical) Shooting Club about 7years ago and just assumed what we did was practical rifle shooting.your were around long before I started shooting up bisley. Maybe you would care to enlighten me with your expert knowledge on the subject with your description of practical rifle shooting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i deer Posted February 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Peter does still shoot occasionly.first time I've seen him without grey hair.he was very knowledgeable then. Not that much has changed then in the COF's.not any less boring that prone shooting Firearms and ammunition have improved no end i imagine.CSR is more of a walk down now rather than a rundown these days as timings are more generous.this was filmed when men were real men. There isn't anything there cof wise I've not seen then.we use to do good shoulder bad shoulder at 600yds a few years back at 600yds.weve got a few 600yds on this year's fixtures which is nice. Etr targets can be set of by shooting at the soil in front of them. From what I am aware of I know quite a few who shoot with LPSC and do CSR aswell.only shooter I've not seen for ages is Colin Hudson. I don' care if some find it boring.i love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Methuen alone covers everything involved in CSR. Which begs the question why you are against shooting CSR? That would give you one competition day a month between Oct and Apr, plus the Imperial week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve tried to show you the way ahead, it’s not commando type shooting, that’s your perception, but there’s more to life than shooting prone you know There’s even a class for Ladypod shooters like yourself, but if you aren’t lazy then why not treat yourself to a rundown? It's good for the lungs you know :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Here's my final piece of assistance for you as I assume you haven't checked with the NRA Take a look at this pic of a screenshot of competitions and events run at Bisley and then pick the ones that interest you and make enquiries If none of these are what you're looking for, then it may seem a bit far-fetched but start your own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i deer Posted February 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 That's was not ment as humorous comment Roy.not really sure how else to describe it.maybe military type approach.ive tried it.i did methuen practices and shot in the methuen comp 2 or 3 years ago.it didnt appeal to me do it and I didn' feel I was very good at it.i much prefer prone shooting.i also have a health problem that interferes with my well being.atb No I deer.
