    Smile bell target essex

    Hello, are there any clubs in north essex? iv looked on all the sites, google etc but nothing. I have this rifle that would be perfect for this, and would like to shoot for informal fun. Or perhaps is there chaps in north essex that may wish to start one?

    Thanks ......

    Hi Rich
    Live on the Suffolk/Essex Borders and would also be keen on this if something was started up locally. Would make a nice change from the paper punching

    hi, next week i may begoing on the border to try a club, but its not a bell target club, but sounds like an informal 10m club. He sounded cool, but you never know till you go. Its still a bit far though. At the moment thinking about buying my own bell target at the shot show and perhaps finding a few chaps off here, and a pub that will host it. Few may round here.....having a think at the moment.

    Well there are 2 10m ranges within 5 or so miles of each other in Suffolk.
    Hadleigh Rifle Club (my club) is in Hadleigh (obviously!!) and shoots in a number of air rifle and pistol leagues, while there is Semer Airgun Society, run by a couple of chaps who left HRC. Both are on a Tuesday night with HRC running out of the Cadet Hall in Hadleigh and SAS running out of Semer Village Hall. Both good little clubs but at end of day it down to personal preference.
    Let me know how you get on......as defo interested in the Bell Target and prepared to travel for it, just not to the Midlands

    To be honest Semer is quite an informal club, nice bunch of lads.....HRC is more geared to shooting in comps.....Malcolm who posted on here only about 6miles down the road from me, so if you could get something started on the bell target that prob 3 of us!!!
