Ogre - probably a seperate comp - I imagine that you'd want different targets, mouse, sparrow, pigeon, rabbit?
What distances would you want? Maybe you could organise - it's not hard, just stick your neck out or maybe it should be put your foot in your mouth like I did! :?

Good link here to field shooting positions that stinkitup posted - http://ausvarmint.kjd84.com/forum/viewt ... =25&t=6361" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Okay this might be for those who can't get out to somewhere with 300 meters or have a CF at the moment. So pick some targets and We'll sort it out down in the airgun forum

I would have a go Stewie but don't think I will get out somewhere where I can this month. Its and awesome Idea though.

Just to get back on topic -
There is still plenty of time to get your targets - comp closes last mail Feb 28th
All you have to do is indicate your interest here and pm me your address and you're in!

Although with the weather and fire danger it doesn't look like we will be able to get out for a while.

Yours are in the mail today damien.
I will have to extend by a couple of weeks due to bushfires and hot weather - so you might be OK

I've gone and dragged this one up again, just cause I can, and its Stewies birthday today, so happy birthday mate, even though you haven't been on here for a while.

Who won the contest ? :hunting:
