6mmBR Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Well Ray arrived Friday afternoon since then we have not stopped. Its been amazing, we've packed so much into 2 days and acheived so much. Yesterday we had a visit down to see Andy (Nemasis .243) which we owe him many thanks for a great time. I had a witnessed shot at a crow at 631 yards so I've got into the Varmint Hunters 500 yard club , then a superb nights foxing, we finnally got in at 4am Today I witnessed a shot for Ray at 501 yards on a bunny so thats 2 of us in the 500 yard club in 24 hours Just so much acheived in such a short time We'll try to piece together some pictures tomorrow and put a few posts up. Cheers all Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onehole Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Well done guys good to see you all have had a crackin time.I wanna know more about this exbal thingy???survived a long while on drop charts/wind meter and a sod just lets have a go attitude but will be wanting to know some more soon.Ray crackin shooting on the eggs me boy! that is just mind blowing???!!!!! Been out with Franko this weekend and on an invite from a local stalker to a piece of land that is also just mind blowing.Lived in Cornwall all my life but just never seen anything like it.We drove across one field that must have been 80 acres all on its own!! Franko[i think local guys know who he is]was busting rabbits with his steyr 223 at minimum ranges of 330 through to 480 with boring repetition!!!I was having serious problem keeping up with first shot kills with my 6br!!!and bearing in mind he was shooting little 52amax [24.5/vit133]I had to shake his hand on many occasions!!!Good to watch though.Wind was a bugger too when will it go away?From a wind that was directly behind us to the target area it changed significantly and an updraft from the deep valley that raised bullet flight considerably and a right to left that until we had sussed it really messed up the first 3/4 shots. maxium safe possibles were about 750 yards but no live targets so we practiced on 500 yds lumps of turd but I guess that dont get us in the 500yd club????officially. but who cares its just plain fun aint it Rock on!!!Onehole.

6mmBR Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Rays not running so fast now, he's run out of ammo after tonight I told him to bring more than 80 rounds. Luckily my RFD mate Dave has saved the day with fresh supplies for tomorrow Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
