What is regarded as a small 5 shot group

[The Gun Pimp]

Don't forget - 600 yard benchrest comp at Diggle this Saturday.  All welcome - just turn up for 9.30am and bring 30 rounds.

Hope to see Dorg, Nick and any other UKVers who fancy a change.

You have your targets handed back to you at the end of the day too, so you have no doubt as to just how your rifle shot, whether the loads held elevation well etc. (After shooting each group, the butts crew also  mark and briefly display the extreme shots so you have an ongoing idea of how well - or badly  - you're doing as you go along.)

See you on Saturday Vince.

Sounds good, never shot Benchrest. Can I just use my normal setup. Bipod and back bag or monopod.

Whatever you like.  There are rules but we'd prefer someone come and try it with what they have. 

A back-bag will work better than a mono-pod off a concrete bench.

Cheers Vince, be there Saturday.
