BARPC Easter Bunny Bash

[Prone Shooter]

Hoping to be there as well Bob. Be good to see a few old faces (even if some of them are obscured by fungal growth ).

Hope the weather is better than it was the last time I shot at Popham Woods.

Wasn't snowing then as well was it

Hi Bob

I'm certainly going to do my best to be there.

Still learning the new gun, and need all the practice I can get Coming to Popham - which has to be one of the best ever HFT venues - at least means fewer of the Sussex crew witnessing my mistakes

Will probably pack the pistol too.

Bloody awful weather. Worse than Quarry (and thats bad).

Yes. that was really bad. Wettest we've ever had in memory. Great company though.

Sadly yes Gary, unfortunately with only alternate weekends to choose from and very limited dates in May (for me none), we had to go with what we had. We also hadn't noticed the worlds were on when we did select the date.

Still, we intend to have a great time and give our guests a great shoot.

How much fun was that?

That was a course to set the standard by, great fun, but at the same time so evil That Turner bloke, he is amazing

Never, ever again will I consume so much caffeine that it gives me the jitters before embarking on a course that requires rock like stability on every shot, when will I learn

That pistol shoot, what can I say

Thank you Basingstoke, a great day, just what the doctor ordered

Thank you Spongey for the lift and the "short" diversion via Bisley on the way home

I was at that one!
Rivers running down my arm holes in my sleeves and out of my jacket!

My boys hands were so cold i had to remove his pellet from his pouch and load it, as his hands were numb!! ...Tell that to the kids today and they won't believe ya!

My s400's air stripper only has slots in the top - it filled up with water and I kept getting donuts when the pellets landed about 8 yards beyond the end of the barrel

Them were days

Cannot believe it was worse than the 2009 SIHFT round at Swallows, thereafter known as The Monsoon Shoot.

2-3 inches of rain fell during the shoot; though the term "fell" suggests straight down. When combined with a steady 30mph wind, it was 'falling' at more like 60 degrees to the vertical.

Great fun

Hope we don't have another one of those this Sunday, or any other this season

It was the temperature that made the Gathering so miserable to shoot in, near sleet it was so cold.

Very excited, might even pack the BSA Scorpion pistol

Yep, it's like a Vietnam Veteran; If you weren't there you wouldn't know. "I've seen some things, man..... Like water in your pellet tray and water running out your barrel. Pellets drowning in flight. Ages a man."
