See you there Mick, as will Dave G, Vic Sykes, Mr & Mrs PVM & Max Coady

I have arranged a few new 'old' shooters as well.

Best pack the woolen socks too.

cheers

I reckon some good cold weather gear is in order. Went to put some water in a bucket thismorning and couldn't because the tap in my yard was frozen, along with the entire hose attached to it. Lovely weather.

Well I'm going to try and get across(calving heifers permitting).
Any gear I especially need other then rifle,ammo(25 rounds for score + how many sighters?)
Rest(will my grass feet skid too much on the concrete?)
Back bag,cleaning gear and muffs.
I'll be the bloke looking a bit lost in a battered Hilux 4x4.(irate cow didn't like her calf being tagged).
Any and all help appreciated.

For ammo, depends what class you shoot. Rifle under 17lbs is light gun, so 5 rounds for score on each of the 2 targets you'll shoot. Heavy gun is 10 for each target. Sighters? As many as you like for the 6 minute sighting period.

Dont know how the grass feet on your rest will go. Havent ever tried them on concrete, but if they do skid too much I reckon we can work something out while you are there.
