Its neither. Its to Rivington R. own rules aquired over nearly 20 years of experience.

For example: You can shoot from any safe position (including sitting) as long as no part of your forearm, hand or rifle touches your knee. (No F.T. 'wrap round' stance.) Elbows yes.

You can alter your scope mag. and parallax at any time but NOT while your looking through it. (No range finding.)

You have to be CAPABLE of touching the target lane marker (but dont have to actually BE touching it at the time of the shot).

Oh - and no resting on trees, marker pegs, posts or B & D workmates. No tripods, bipods or monopods.

2 & 1 scoring. Targets set between 8 and 50 yards. Mixed kill zone sizes. 30 'interesting' target main course with several fun side shoots.

We even have a 'Open Sight' class. Remember them? They used to come free with every rifle.

If you require details of the shoot please e-mail me.

A.T.B.

Ive just got back from our outdoor range where a few ( ) of the members have been busy all day fixing target bases, clearing shooting points and paths etc. ready for this charity event.
The course, while testing is fun and set amongst the trees and bushes and promises to provide a good days shooting entertainment.
More prizes have been promised.

Clear it! The only way anyone will clear it is by sweeping it up.
