Gary, As usual - the shooting continued at Diggle - until we couldn't see the target (at 600 yds) for snow! See you tomorrow for the McQueen?

Its nice just to get out and see the countryside blanketted. Well done to Gunnery and 3 others for showing up but not enough were there at 10:30 to bother waiting around so We went and shot elsewhere. The weather was superb and the wind was virtually nothing more than a breath. So far this year, weather 2, McQueens 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
