Ronin Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Darrel ive emptied some of my PM's. I am going Mon, I will take the skins even if you cannot make it, maybe another boyo could get them to you? Think entry is £5 or £10 depending on membership of PSSA?

Ronin Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Just like to say what a good time was had by all at the Egg shoot today. Foxing2night, Jayfoxing, TulkyUK, Baldie and Kal were there. All shot very well, despite a gusting 15 - 25mph crosswind, yep even you Kal, despite having 6MOA too much elevation, it was a cracking group (on someone elses target) F2N has now got a Green AW, he's a happy boy and my machine shot pretty good too, despite the driver making a cock up on the 300 yard detail Hope to see you all at the Fly, payment in cash to stop me posting pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Foxing Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Hi all, Thanks lads, egg shoot was a fun and challenging day out for all. Didn't shoot so well myself but well done to the rest of you, some great shooting in some very windy conditions. Ronin, Baldie and Kal made this a fantastic day for us welsh lads, a good bunch and very knowledgeable. Before the rumours start flying about, we didn't bring any sheep home with us this time lads, honest. Some of the lads and rifles. The 500yd range. The 500yd egg. The successful shooters on the day. I'm sure we will be there again for the fly shoot. Thanks again lads. Jay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All shot very well, despite a gusting 15 - 25mph crosswind, yep even you Kal, despite having 6MOA too much elevation, it was a cracking group (on someone elses target) Whats 6MOA between friends... Good job it was just a few sighters, I cant flucking believe my palm went tits up on the 500... Still even 2.9/16 at 500 yards aint bad, one with a shot out barrel and two a gusting 15-20 MPH wind... 4th or 5th smallest group of the day aint bad boys... Had a hell of day, nice to see the taffy boys again always a pleasure chaps, see you soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my Exbal hadnt gone down it would of been on my target instead of 6MOA over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 He he he I recall a question I was asked about, "how many minutes do I need to be on at 500"?........... The answer was 9 how come it computed to 15 MOA!!!! Me thinks the boys becoming competative Well Kal, at least you know you'll be "on" for the Fly, maybe i'll doctor your rounds eh? Seriously, even to shoot a group is an achievenment in those conditions, well done - addictive isnt it, this long range thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulkyuk Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Seriously, even to shoot a group is an achievenment in those conditions, well done - addictive isnt it, this long range thing? I'll agree with that on both counts - i used to say to the other lads that i would never be really that interested in target shooting, but even i'm starting to get the bug for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
