    Targets and possible new HFT club

    We've been buying targets from most places so we can start our own club and so far have bought SMK, Gamo, and nock over. Yesterday I saw these 310375246748 on the bay. Has anyone bought one and why are they so expensive. We have found the Nock over or gamo to be the best so far. Anywhere else do them?


    We now have 15 targets and a field so just 15 to go. Anyone interested in HFT in Tun wells area PM me. Our aim will be to out shoot the Oaks, Buxted, and Horsham gangs, so we're not aiming very high

    You could allways start off with 15 targets, just put out 2 pegs per target a bit like our hunter series. Or do what Ford do for thier smaller comps & shoot 15, have a break, move a couple & shoot another 15
    Not looked @ your link but if it's the £40 ones I saw the other day they had interchangable faces IIRC.

    The Gamo ones have been found to be a bit temperamental in the past with most going for knockover. I'll PM you a contact number for someone making targets that many are using in the UKAHFT rounds now.

    I've just bought some and will be ordering more of the head shot style. I have made some wooden mounts with an angled bracket (copied form a design done by a M.A.D club member) that allows you to mount a target almost anywhere. If you want some piccies just let me know and i will take some at the weekend for you.

    We have had a couple of shoots using your format, but not thought of having two rounds. Hopefully we will get up to 20 very soon and invite everyone for a small contest. Thanks

    Hi
    Would love some pic please. I will give that number a call and order up a few of the head shot ones, they look fun. Thanks
