Federal Cup 500M fly & 1K BR 7-8/03/09 - Canberra
Well, the dates have been given now.
Federal Cup 500M centerfire Fly on Saturday 7th of March - 9am start as usual. Nominations to Jim McKinley. Would get in quick, because we have filled up for the last 3 of these.
1K BR on Sunday the 8th. Start at 8:30-9am. I may well need to run this one by myself, which should be interesting. Nominations to me at the Fly at the latest. Usually our busiest shoot of the year, so I have to do the bench draw etc the night before. Out of consideration for everybody else, if you dont nominate or are not there and ready to go by 8:30, we can't let you shoot.
Should be a fun weekend as always.

Hi Mick,
I won't be able to make the fly this March due to work. Hope everyone has a great weekend as I know you all will.

I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN------ I buy tickets for the Country Music Festival in Thredbo, hoping the shoot would not be that weekend----- and look what happens. The Fly Calendar is still not posted on the Fly Page at ACT Benchrest.com
Anyway, while you blokes are shootin'--- I'll be boot scootin'
Good luck guys, I'll have to try and make the May shoot.

lol, i think its be "the black bastard" which if i recall was about 50Kgs all said and done. Couple that with id estimate 15kgs of rest, then bags and windflags cleaning gear etc sounds about right
And yes, looking at the thing it could be used to defend a small country.
Jeff I've contemplated it mate but given i only have a sporter weight .17 rem atm im thinking the 500M might be a buit steep to get started with. That and the only vehicle would be a ute IF i could borrow it
