Oh No more expense!!![]()
Following on from an earlier thread and much discussion the proposal is to combine the published Oaks Open dates (starting 8th May) with a taster FT series. The current (cunning) plan is that both HFT and FT will be shot - exact details to follow nearer the date.
Naturally the FT can be shot with usual HFT rig or could be treated as yet another gadget opportunity....![]()

Will my Rat Buster perform in this rarefied company? It has red & white painted iron sights!
It has a good pedigree - it won at Ford two years ago!
Do red dots work at 60yds?
No? I know a cheap AR 20. There seem to be lots around. None hissing like an EV2 yet though! Still I am told you can sit down whilst contemplating your next move![]()

This is so exciting...what scope should I get - do you think a Zos would do for starters or are they a waste of time?
Would I be better off with a posher 24 mag or a Zos 40 mag? Oi bain't got much munny to spend so what would be the best option?
Absolutely spiffing idea this...![]()

Now you know as well as I do that Andy prefers a smaller scope to flatten out the trajectory and all that.
Having said all that, sometimes you just need a bunch of knobs to twiddle.
I just hope your Skip doesn't go all Yankie FT on us and gets himself a bondage harness.![]()

As you said Richard, the Zos are a decent 'starter' scope, available s/h for less than £100, it all depends how seriously you're thinking of doing FT, you know that if you're still doing it after a few weeks you'll wish that you'd initially gone for a s/h Big Nikko, or better.![]()

...very good you lot!
Wouldn't be the same if you took it seriously!
I reckon it should be two points for a plate...infact i might do away with the killzone altogether!...
As far as scopes go...32 mag or more, with a big lens...I have had a big nikko since i started the club, so i am sorted, just waiting for a friend to make me a wheel!
