Thanks Jeff

macca shot very well in LG to pick up the group agg in what were at best very ordinary conditions (gusty 15-20 knot SE which at times exceeded 20 knots by a fair margin, thats an incoming wind for anyone that doesnt know McIntosh Rnage at Canberra) You would have loved it Jeff it was nearly as cold as Tamworth a few years back, I am sure you remember that.
We had sun, rain and icy wind throughout the day for an all round weather experience.

macca shot an agg in the 230mm area I think with both his groups being round that size give or take and I was very lucky to get under him for small group with a 202mm, I should shoot with my eyes closed while praying more often.

Thanks to the Canberra boys mick, tiger and co for arranging and running the match, always a pleasure to shoot with you blokes. Also thanks to dg for arranging the postal shoot with the Virginia Rifle Club, hopefully this will be ongoing now. Good job dg.

Yes, congrats guys, and again thanks to dg for getting this thing running.

Was definitely an interesting day. Generally horrible conditions from very early in the morning. It usually at least starts out promising, until the end of the sighting period for the first detail of the day. :lol:
