I wondered too if anyone was a member of FCSA, was on their website and it got me thinking.... Then I checked my bank account! :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M99 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Morning. For my sins I have just taken over as the Secretary of the FCSA. I am also captain of the GB .50cal team again for this year's World Championships in Raton, New Mexico. If anyone is interested in joining or would like more information, please just ask!

Yep, spot on Gunner it is a Rangemaster 50. I'll get some more pictures up soon. Very accurate with Primetake factory precision ammo and enjoyable to shoot. I need to get to an FCSA shoot as I've not been to one for a while. Missed Warcop last week but plan on going to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner Posted January 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Jagged , how much does it work out per shot on the factory ammo , im allready gulping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagged 77 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Jagged , how much does it work out per shot on the factory ammo , im allready gulping I was lucky enough to be given a good amount of factory ammo with the rifle... I believe you'd not get much change per round out a tenner if you were to purchase some! You can make your own precision ammo for considerably less using lathe turned solids or Amax's.

ds1 Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Tripod is Velbon Geo - series carbon. Manfrotto ball head and QD RC2 plate I have since changed it a bit to fit into the rucksack side pocket (see thread) http://ukvarminting.com/forums/topic/25670-tripods-more-thoughts/?hl=tripod I also have a Gitzo carbon job - a little better but 3x the price.
