    Hi.

    No Problem as it's PCP, I'll update the score sheet.


    I think now that there is enough people in all categories.

    So good luck to everyone for this competition.

    Regards

    Hi All
    Following on from Pade post, I have also shot a few practice targets well quite a few actually and my best to date is a total of 125 some 33 point improvement mind you I still throw in the odd sub 100 score with some real fliers not sure if its me or the pellets as the Umarex pellets do seem a bit variable in the breech Not long now and the target will be for the comp

    That's superb,125 , I'm going to have to get some practice in this weekend....... or start thinking up some excuses!

    As for pellets, I've never tried any others but I'm using RWS Hobby and when I miss I know it's not down to the gun or the pellets, it's me every time.

    If I rest my hands on a table and hold the gun in two hands I can get excellent groups so I'd definitely recommend them if you fancy a change. I think they're fairly cheap compared to some others as well, always a bonus.

    Welcome aboard Colin, has Larissa been eating 3 shredded wheat for breakfast then? How is she going to do the single handed shots, I think I'd wobble a bit with a Ranchero

    BTW I have some pink pouches left for sale and 1 red heart

    Cheers

    John

    See you on Sunday, I hope.

    [/creep mode on] Dearest Mr Pad. E, having arrived a little late to the party, and noticing your, no more peeps, statement on page one I was, to say the least, a little disheartened and accept that if you let me in, I can imagine it would be a lot of work for your already heavy workload, what with all the camo projects and everything.

    So I'd understand if you can't say yes, come on in and join the fun, which is a shame really as I feel that Blackpool may be a little under-represented in the competition and I'm sure I'll represent the town well.

    Should you be in a position to add another member to the exclusive, well respected, list of members I would very much appreciate it [/creep mode off]

    Seriously, if anyone drops out then please put me on your standby list

    These are good pellets all my ladie's love them, but they are just to pricey, so i have to settle for the H & N Match Kugeln, How much do you pay for yours Eric?
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    £7.59 from our sponsor, Jason, cheaper if you buy 10 tins which I may do when I'm getting low on pellets and I'm feeling flush....but I use Geco, Co2 Target, Bisley Practice and R 10 Match when practicing....

    if Northern35s wants my place then let him in shame to deny the chap a place as i can't shoot.
