Chris Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Going next Saturday, anybody any idea of what I can expect other than action with a shotgun! Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Yep, you will have a great day. Take plenty of slug...its all you will be shooting. If i remember right you need at least 50 rounds. There is usually a mixture of steels, clays [fixed, not moving ] and figure 11,s etc , making for a very varied days shooting. I would be there myself, only i,m booked into a level three match at Harlow the same day. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashcroft Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 last one i went there was birdshot stages as well with movement between 2 points as well as the initial slug stages so i would take both, not sure what is planed for this one as i'm not a member up there but i know it was very enjoyable with lots of people attending, the impression left was it was the first of better things to come they have recently been fuly affiliated to the UKPSA so it may be bigger and better than last time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Yes there may well be buddy. This however is an action shotgun day, which usually involves mainly target shooting with slug at static targets. There may well be a couple of birdshot stages, but it will be predominantly slug. It wont be a practical type event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I don't get to shoot I'll get an idea for next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Just had a rough idea of the COF for tommorrow [i,m coming now ] You will need a couple of boxes of birdshot and about 15 slug. No one will be left shabby for want of ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldie Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Mick and Co always put a good day on. We usually try and get over to them. The quarry they run in is superb, with purpose built PSG bays and a vast array of ingenius targetry. Well worth a visit...and great people to spend a day with.

ashcroft Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 the comp is sorted for Sunday 27th November. So far they are looking at 8 stages, probably in the region of 120 birdshot needed (Lead No 5 max, felt wad only please). This may well increase and it also includes the Texas Star and a partially covered star, so expect a few misses. Time and light dependant we may run a couple of stages twice (though first time only for score!) and perhaps a man v man. If you could give me an idea of how many might attend that would be a help as I need to get some clays sorted. Hope you guys can make it. let us know definates asap so i go back to the organiser cheers Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
