The Gun Pimp Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Guys, Diggle is about 10 miles NE of Manchester. The postcode for your satnav is OL3 5LB. This will get you pretty close. There is plenty of safe parking, toilets, kitchen facilities (but bring lunch) heated range house - but let's hope we don't need it but, if it is wet, we can shoot under cover.

Ronin Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 May attend with something different tomorrow. Straight factory 308 and maybe even the 22-250AI depending on weather. Fun shoot after all. Looking forwards to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Absolutely - a pure fun shoot. Run what ya brung - as the bike guys say! Cheers Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted August 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Record turn-out for the 500 yd Fly Shoot today - weather 'mixed' as expected. Congrats to Andy Massingham (Ronin) and Darrel Evans (foxing 2 night) - taking first and second in factory Class and to John Campbell for winning Custom Class. Smallest group in Custom was a 1.737 incher from Mark Daish (284) and Andy Massingham's 2.49 incher was smallest in Factory. I'll try and get the full results on the UKBRA website at www.ukbra.co.uk in the next couple of days. Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Great day again Vince, hope your feeling better. "Mixed" weather......, wet, moist, damp, windy and some sun would be my own description Glad I chose to shoot factory with the 308 Blaser Tac 2....and a modest 16 power scope...

LONG RANGE CAPT Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Vince, It was my first visit to Diggle and my first precision competition and It was great to meet up with other like minded shooters. Coming away with a fly badge was a great bonus on top of a great day. And to anyone that couldn't make it this year or is thinking about going next year, I cant recommend it enough. When your looking through the scope at 500yds the target look very very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c18rch Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Just got back from up north so I'm a bit late but it was a good day despite the shocking weather. I finally managed to make it to the fly shoot. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Must try harder to get a fly patch next year though . Thanks to Vince and everyone else involved in running it and congratulations to Andy, Darrel and John. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
