A bit late now I know but I lost the internet for 6 days and have had to have some very strong words to Telstra. Mad

Anyway took the 6.5 and my sons .22 for a sight in. We wanted to fit the scope to his anshultz .222 but the leupold mounts wouldn't fit on the dovetail of the rifle. Looks like I have to get them milled out a bit to match the contour of the anshultz. The young fella did very well, even had a shot of the 6.5 which booted him a bit. One thing I did notice was the amount of "stuff" people bought to the range with them. Guys were rocking up with plastic trunks on wheels that even I could fit into. I sort of felt inadequate with my little backpack containing everything I needed.

A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!"

I have a plastic trunk for F-Class and the range, but I have cheap gear.

My mates have $1200 front rest and $200 rear bags.

Well I'm very uncool Muzza. My spoting scope is a cheap little tasco telescope shocker

That, plus the majority of shooters had gone to AR's while I was still shooting the old '17 Enfield bolt guns in CMP match's is why I stopped going to match's completely.
I would go to the B/P shoots but, haven't been feeling well this summer. Think there's one more shoot for the yr. Only four as there's not much % for some reason. seems like this would be a popular group as it's a fun match and run well. A good shooter can make money at it by getting winnings back for the top three scores.

I'm amazed at how much crap I pack to the range when I go. CED, half dozen guns, shooting box and IF I take the b/p stuff there's another box of stuff for that. almost like moving to pack it all out and back in.
