Big thank you to The Primes for sponsoring the Open Series the trophies looked top notch, likewise to Baggers for setting the courses and organising the pistol competition and trophies,you fully deserved your award Hopefully Santa will bring me one so that I can take part in next years Competition
Also a massive thanks to Rob Brown for keeping us all under control and generally being Mr Kibworth.

Here is a big thank you to the Kibby course builders and to the shooters I have competed with this year at the open shoots.
Already looking forward to doing it again next year.
Would like a crack at pistol if your comp goes open, maybe someone could tell me what type of air pistol required and what type of targets do you shoot etc.

Hopefully Rob is going to carry on with pistols next year when i leave, we have discussed and after the success and fun we had over the last six months it will most likely continue and be made into open series, we shoot at the normal HFT targets and finish with some paper targets, knock downs dont go that far out so its fair for everyone and all types of pistols, most people have been using the Weihrauchs although anything like that will be good enough but CO2s do struggle with accuracy (more for plinking fun) when your next at Kibby talk to Rob or myself about it. cheers

I had two perfect shots on peg 4 (through the bike wheel), dead centre.

Touble was that some evil bar-steward had drilled a ruddy great hole in the middle of the kill zone so I scored a double donut...

Neil

Good Shooting, you must have been hungry 2 donuts mmmm

Ok thanks for that, have had a go at knock downs with my Umarex Colt but it wasn't really powerful enough for them even at about 8yds.
My Crosman 2240 will knock them over out to 25yds but thats a .22 so may not be accurate enough.
What sights are allowed or is it open sights only.

You can use any sights, some people prefer open sights but more are going for the red dot type, this year as it was a test series we put everyone in together, and i dont think anyone had an advantage over anyone else and the person who won it did it with a second hand Weihrauch 40 with a red dot sight, so as with air rifles you cant buy success its all about the nut behind the butt
