I know the feeling well.
Once i gave a new shooter my 223 and a bit of coaching he went 60/60 and 59/60.
My son has a bad habit of borrowing my rifle and cleaning me up.
On a sadder note I once lent a 243 to a young bloke and got it back in three pieces.Oh well what the hell.

Happened to me weekend just gone,local club comp and lent my Br to a mate to use in our 10 shot 200mtr score shoot.I used my PPC and shot 199 with 3x's,old mate shot 199 with 4x's,bugger.
It was the first time he had used the rifle and I was glad it was him that beat me,rang me today and said that he had a deposit on a Savage LRPV 6BR,$1680 and due around christmas!!! he's got the bug...................................YESSSSSSSSSSS another one .

Regards Chris.

local 22 shoot at the pistol club

score is out of 600 odd

I'm somewhere in the 450-480 mark

as one of the RO's at the time I was there when the security guards were there practicing
invited one of the security guards along to the shoot on Tuesday night- trying to do my bit to recruit new members to the club

and she beat me with a 520 odd score and I shot 430 odd

I think it's something to be expected...it seems to happens to most people who do it

From experience kids will flog ya every time...the sawn off shit now argues about which gun he's using

kenny,

the sawn off shit now argues about which gun he's using

I know what you mean mate.
I know a few guys that still have old target rifle sthey dont use but wont sell for fear of someone giving them a touch up with the gun they reckon is past it.

cheers

I Don`t lend me rifles...
I Don`t lend me fishing gear...
I don`t lend me missus....

whipersniper,chainsaw or mower as they all come back #@#$ed.

I know two blokes who lent there guns,

One lent his .22 to his brother and he decided it was just the thing for some Hurry Curry.

The other was a Dad who lent his 12ga to his son, he got caught shooting roo's with it and the old boy is minus a shotgun.

Thats sad.!

lent one of my cheaper guitars to a mate once, got it back with scratches and a broken switch, so im buggered if im lending em a rifle worth 5 times as much

Hi aJR, am glad to hear that you didn't get whooped with your own gun, at the same time feel sorry for Bob taht he didn't get the conditions to do it.

cheers and straight shooting

Yep, I lent a single barrel 12g winchester shottie with ejector (it was a flash shottie for a single barrel) to my uncle and never saw it again. Even after dozens of rquests there was nothing. This was before the days of rego and I later found out that he had a domestic with his GF and the cops took it for safe keeping. PRICK

One day at the range with a SLR as a young tike in the cadets I bitched that my rifle was crap. The range officer took it out of my hands and pulled off an arsey off hand shot at a can 100 meters away and handed it back to me saying "nothing wrong with it son" Later I overheard him saying that he could never pull that off again
