Perhaps you are misreading the post

The closed shop attitude referred to the post with reference to the suggestion the thread should not have been started as I did not attend

 

Clearly that was obvious in the first few lines of the opening post

 

The winner  was training new people at an event run by the PRL

Where was this advertised or was it by invitation, thereby not really getting new people involved ?

As far as I recall and I have shot at PRL matches so should be on the mailing list,  I had no notification of this event, whilst I am only one person - was or is this advertised on the PRL / Round House training email list - I didn’t receive one (guess it must be in the post)

 

New shooters are not “telepathic” they don’t just “know” Precision Rifle Shooting exists and don’t just “know” where to go to enter the sport either it’s still a niche entity (small fish - big pond) 

There are many training providers and ranges who are well established where one can shoot steel plates and practice 

Likewise this event - Guardian Long Range Series is the only event held in the UK to provide funds for that specific charity and by posting on THIS web forum many hundreds if not thousands of our members will become aware of it and hopefully go on line and contribute if they can 

This thread is no place for those wishing to promote themselves as the sole purveyor of such events in the UK which is how it has come across with the attitude shown in the last couple of posts.

 

 

Ronin, your ability to post across this forum in a manner that makes your uninformed opinion sound like a fact is quite outstanding at times! 

The Scott Satterlee Clinic was a Roundhouse / PRS Ireland collaboration and the notification of the event collectively had over 40,000 views on Facebook alone. 

You have not shot at PRL 'matches' - you only shot the second round in late May.  A challenge that was barely PRL and certainly not within the rules, so subsequently dropped as a venue. 

Finally, The Republic of Ireland most definitely is not in the UK! 

Anyway, I've had enough of this. It was a fantastic match to be a part of. The Guardian crew are amazing and the shooters from multiple nations were so welcoming. 

I look forward to the Guardian heading international again in 2021 and will attend wherever they go. 

While this forum was useful back in the day, I'm calling it quits on here now.  I wish everyone the best possible success with their shooting and catch up on a range soon.

That’s right. They are incorrect. Marcus has posted on this. Best you leave match posts to people we attended 🙄

Well said! 

The Precision Rifle League returned to Orion Firearms Training for the fifth and final round of the year.

Once again we were blessed with excellent weather in the stunning Cambrian Mountains. With a dynamic and challenging course of fire, fifty-one shooters competed across the ten unique stages, pursuing podium places for the day and the year!

The eagerly anticipated official results and 2019 PRL Leaderboards will be released tomorrow afternoon.  

Full pictures of the main event are available via the Facebook link below:

The PRL22 has be designed to fulfil the PRL’s primary aim "to develop and expand precision rifle shooting for the benefit of all”.

Roundhouse looks good.

I get the impression there are only a few per year but I may be wrong. 

I will email Tiff. 

Thanks

I'm just back for the night to catch up with emails etc, after a few days maintenance at The Roundhouse.  The weekends storm knocked out the local mast, so only just seen this thread...

The Roundhouse Rifle Challenge 'RRC' is my seasonal flagship event.  I do however have clients for training most weeks, with a variety of 1-1 days, through to clubs and other groups or organisations booking the facilities. 

I am around most of the time on 07581 325328 for further details (except during IWA latter half of this week).  

Hopefully speak soon,

Sold 

I have owned this scope since new and it has proved an incredibly reliable extreme long range scope on my .300 / .338 switch-barrel.  

It has one of my favourite reticules, the illuminated MP-8 extreme.

It will be supplied with a lapped 40mm IOR steel picatinny one piece mount. 

There are a few light scratches/scuffs to the paint on the tube (from the rings during eye relief mounting). This is the only old fashioned part about IOR, they still paint a lot of their scopes eastern block style: so with steel rings, light paint marks are basically unavoidable.  These may well be removed/repainted during servicing anyway. 

I have all my competition optics serviced every three years and this scope is currently away at IOR being fully inspected.  It is due back in late March.  

£1,500 posted or £1,460 collected. 

(Also for sale elsewhere)

N.B. Only selling due to a sponsorship deal coming to fruition and if I keep this IOR, I know I'll probably end up using it more than kit I am meant to be trialling!
