c18rch Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I'm gutted, I can't make it this year. I even specifically booked my leave for the first half of May because the egg shoot is usually the second May bank holiday. I'm sure it will be but, hope it is as good as ever for those that are going. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Sorry about the change of date - you are right it is usually the second Bank Holiday in May but I'm away then. We originally held it on Easter Monday but we got snowed off a few times! Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c18rch Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 With the weather at the moment there is every chance you'll get snowed off in May! Next year I'll leave May clear. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t.t Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 can people come just to spectate? If so what time is it starting thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 can people come just to spectate? If so what time is it starting thanks We do have people who come a watch, usually its a better laugh to see others shoot under pressure Bring a rifle, fac etc and someone will sign you in.

The Gun Pimp Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 can people come just to spectate? If so what time is it starting thanks TT - you can come to watch but you'll be sorry you didn't bring your rifle. 10 rounds are all you'll need.

Offroad Gary Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 so who's coming from down south then? ive made my 10 rounds and chrony'd the new rifle/ammo, just need to get it re-zeroed if the wind drops below 25mph before next weekend. or is that normal for northern diggle wind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c18rch Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Yeah, thats normal. It can be 25 degrees everywhere else and the snow will still be coming in sideways up there. Even when it feels like there is no wind at diggle you still need plenty of windage dialed on. You'll want to go up every year if you do go up though. t.t, you'll wish you took a rifle if you don't Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 It's 16 degrees today (Monday) at Diggle - but it was only 2 degrees on Sunday! Let's hope it holds for a week. Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest richness Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 A timely reminder - I was thinking of putting a general invite on the forum in the next week or so. For those who've not done the Egg Shoot - 3 shots at 100 yards, 300 yards and 500 yards (on the groundhog target) then one shot at the egg from 500 yards - easy! Absolutely NO SIGHTERS on the day. Vince God that sounds like my cup of tea. Can't make it this year but good luck to all who do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 any one got post code etc for sat nav for diggle cheers Tom, the postcode is pretty wide-ranging. If you have any trouble finding the place, you want to get to the Diggle Hotel (OL3 5JZ) and drive on past its frontage up what loooks like a one-vehicle wide dead end into houses beyond the hotel. It's signposted 'Diglea Only'. It really is one vehicle wide and you go around blind corners around the ends of houses - so beware in case you meet a local coming down it. Follow that road for maybe a half-mile leaving the village behind and you'll come to a junction where you turn left (signposted to the ranges). From there just follow your nose. Have a good time - I won't make it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
