    Range docs

    Hi Chris
    Many thanks for your efforts last night and the sandwiches (very nice).
    E-mail sent with attached draft range safety rules for the bell target range.

    RA to follow this weekend

    If I get time, I will also put together and send a draft constitution for the B.L C committee to review next week

    Fingers crossed that they are happy to have us use the room and you will get this club up and running

    There may well be other club members using this forum who perhaps could set up a 6 yd range at their club and compete with us via postal or even shoulder to shoulder

    ATB

    Hi jjjjjjjjjj

    As we are forming our own new club/league we will be able to decide what suits the members best,& I learnt from our recent meeting that there was a diverse selection of "enthusiasts"...but all wanted a fun night out that just happened to include airguns....but on the whole..(hole.. no pun intended.!)....most clubs shoot between 6-7 yards at a target thats 5ft. from the ground (bull 3/8") & use anything from a "modern" TX200 with open sights,vintage springers,recoil-less springers with diopters right up to 10mtr. target pcp's (with all the "atire") @ circa 2k-3k... Power wise they vary tween 6/11.5Ft.Lbs..just depends what league you join & how competitive you are...I can't remember any of the mag's doing any articles (recently) but the history of this ongoing sport is really facinating..try a google.

    I guess the next step up from this would be the 10mtr. dicipline...but then it starts to get really serious..! ATB,Chris.

    Blimey Chris!...sounds like a proper old wine, dine, swing and ding at the Wheeltappers and Shunters!...


    Edit: It don't mean a thing...

    It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that ding
    (doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)
    It don't mean a thing all you got to do is ding
    (doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)

    It makes no difference
    If it's Gem or not
    Just give that plinker
    Every little ding you've got
