Sounds like a good chance to get some match practice, I will have to check I think West Wylong have a shoot on then as well.

RBA pretty much means no rules, no limitiations on rifle weights, scopes or rests, makes it easy for the organiser.

Chris,

You will have the best 2 IRB shooters in the country at that shoot...don't worry I'll tell Mitch to take it easy on you not.

Steve

ps do you know of any 22lr barrels out there for sale at a reasonable price.

Yeah thanks Steve...................................................mate I dont mind being beaten......................................cause I have no choice most times :) .Mitch is a top young fella,very down to earth and has a dad that backs him 110%,apparently there is four of the Newcastle Maffia coming up maybe more..............................................good stuff I say as they are all good blokes.
Where is that young bloke of Yates and that good barrel of mine,I heard what he done to it and twenty lashes wouldn't be enough punishment for such a crime :lol: .
Steve I dont have a factory barrel but what about the apple farmer come mining magnate...........................he would have to have one or twenty there somewhere.



Regards Chris.

Chris,

Yeah I heard the Newcastle boys are going too....Not after a factory barrel anymore...scored one from Gunnedah that my brother originally sold...shit those Brnos are tight...I slugged my Model 4 barrel the other day and found I can use 224 projectiles in it...might do better with something a bit tighter.
