I don't know for certain but Townsvilles Ironman is set to be the same time as last year. Middle of July. I won't be there as i hope to be chasing vermin up in NT but i am sure the boys would love to see you and your 6.5 come up again. Is the dashing gunsmith coming up to? What about AI?

I will have to check but I think that might clash with a 1000yd match at Canberra in which case I will be at Canberra.

I will try to get to the Tamworth shoot if it doesnt clash with work. A flyshoot as Sydney would be good also.

er, no! Pat doesnt have a rifle ready to go at 500 and just wanted to tag along for somrthing to do as he isnt getting much shooting due to his health. He used my 204 varmint rifle with 40gn pills. perhaps a first for that calibre! I was spotting the first target for him and at 42 power couldnt see holes so he shot blind. Little pills and high wind. I was impressed that most shots hit paper though only a few scored. like he said, burning powder beats sitting at home.

30th may 09 Tamworth will be holding a 500m fly it is (not anymore) a part of the SOTY.
If interested parties could email me. by using the address in my Sig line that would be ggreat.
I would like to get a idea on numbers by the end of March so as to be able to Hold a bench draw.

Also the 24th Oct 09.But i do believe it will clash with another so iam not pushing that one.PLUS i have a chance to win something if all you bloke aren't there. :lol: :lol:

Thanks

Matt

Edited to remove please read my sig.

When will the Fly shoot be held this year in Hornsby, perhaps we may be able to also organise one for Malabar at a later date?
