Congrats Chappo !!
Well done to you and all the crew that made the event possible. It was a credit to everyone, the facility and hospitality were first class !!
I know how much work it is getting an event like this up and running, I am sure you will have lots of very happy shooters and we can all watch the sport grow more - Well done also to the target crew.....great turn around time.
Will be back for sure.
Cheers
Anthony

Well done on the result mate!!
Now the range, I could not be happier with not only the range at 500m but also how professionally it was run. Target crew was efficient.
Clock work is the only way I can describe it.
Praise must be given to the guys at Wagga who have put in the hard yards to make this comp happen.
I look forward to the next shoot, but guessing I will be making a few trips before the next offical 500m shoot.
Well done and a brilliant weekend!
Cheers

Re: Wagga 500m/300m fly shoot photos
Thanks AI, and to all the guys and girls who travelled who made this event possible.
A few people who MUST be thanked publicly are:
1. Peter VM and Jugsy for scoring duties.
2. All the target crews for both days.
3. Don Ewin for Range Officer both days.
and our two sponsors.
Firstly Grenfell Armouring Services at Bendigo for the donation of a Benchmark Barrel and,
Secondly to Power Ammo Supplies Wagga for the donation of a Miroku Mod 10 12g u/o.
We will obviously fine tune a few things for the next shoot and hopefully get it a registered match as well so those scores count.
Jugsy should have the results up soon for everyone to see.
Thanks again to everyone involved, the competitors and the sponsors.
Hope to catch up with all again at Canberra.
Cheers
