If they are Shotmarker Targets then you probably wont find any .22lr that will work consistently, I tried a variety of .22lr from as close as 10 yards on a Shotmarker any less than 50% of shots registered. Even if shooting supersonic .22lr from 100 yards by the time the bullet reaches the target it will be well below supersonic.

Who is the Bisley Ranger Master?

From the NRA 6.5mm Creedmoor ammunition: The NRA has received confirmation from Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) that, on UK DIO ranges, 6.5mm Creedmoor ammunition shall only be used where 8.59mm ammunition (338 Lapua Magnum) is permitted. Club RCO’s must check range standing orders as part of the shoot planning/range recce process and ensure compliance. NRA advises operators of private ranges (as defined at NRA Handbook para 108b) to check the limitations applicable to their ranges and ensure that all firearm / ammunition combinations in use fall within those limitations. The use of 6.5mm Creedmoor ammunition on NSC ranges at Bisley is unaffected by DIO restrictions. Nic Couldrey Regional Ranges Manager

Just so I understand it, there were no Falling Plates at all this year during the Imperial? I was aware that they had said no anything other than 5.56 and 7.62.

.338 Lap was specifically verboten on Bisley NRA Ranges unless you were Military, has that changed?

Not sure if this will affect Bisley as they use the MoD Danger Area.

6.5 Creedmoor Users Please Note the Following: URGENT AND IMPORTANT NEWSFLASH. For those of you who use MOD Fixed Firing Ranges, particularly Wiltshire’s SPTA (Salisbury Plain Training Area) ranges (and most likely nationwide Military Fixed Firing Ranges). With immediate effect, a ban on the use of 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition has been imposed. This ban has come from the top, Westdown Camp, who are responsible for safety on all MOD ranges across the UK, not just Wiltshire. The issue appears to be with range safety and the use of 6.5 Creedmoor. ie this chambering exceeds the safety template of 7.62mm/308 Win by enough of a margin to be deemed unsafe for use on Fixed Firing Ranges. When this ban came out (Thursday 26th) FCSA immediately informed NRA’s Nic Cauldry to seek clarification with MOD. It is confirmed that the ban has been imposed. Furthermore, clubs and range users will need to acknowledge the ban (when other Training Areas bring it online) in writing, otherwise further range bookings will not be processed until said users have replied and acknowledged the restrictions on 6.5 Creedmoor. If you need further information on this, contact your club’s secretary’s and seek clarification from your local MOD/Landmarc Representative. Currently this ban is for SPTA users only, but we hear that it is likely to be rolled across all MOD Training areas where Fixed Firing Ranges are used by civilian clubs

It's all about shiny shirts, self promotion and sponsorship now.

Yes, 33XC shoots like a Laser Beam but barrel life is comparatively short compared to .338LM, barrel life with the 37XC is supposed to be better.
