Not seen a running boar one,, Mine is the Gamo MTS 1000 Moving Target System, Has Deer running on the system, Suppose they could be substituted for Boar but not seen one as of yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aJp5CxKfMQ ,,, Col.
Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has one of the old Stiga running boar target systems that they might want to sell to a good home?
It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Richard

Sold the Promatic Running Boar one recently, Surely you dont want one as big as that one, Col.
A chap brought the Gamo one to a range I was on.
It was a Christmas present.
12 shooters opened fire and it ceased to function.
Sad.
We had to make our own Running Boar target equipment which is two speed and on wheels to enable mobile use on our indoor range, Luckily, one of our more talented engineer members shoots in regular competitions at Bisley and wanted to use it for indoor training. A great bit of kit that provides a bit of relief from static target shooting.

The best running target set ups I have seen in the UK tended to be scratch built by enthusiasts with an engineering background. Commonly available commercial types seen in the UK seem to be too flimsy for extensive use. . Commercially made one's I have seen in Germany look strong though and doubtless could be imported.
this is the one I’m after, imported throughout the eighties by Nickerson.
You've missed one by a month at auction in Ostersund(Sweden), sold for about 200 pounds.
Very nice area down there up in the mountains and they have an airport.

There are these apparently.

https://www.skyttetjanst.se/articleg...tmalsbanor/718 gives you an idea on how much they cost
You can keep an eye out on blocket.se for the stiga, they appear there every now again.

Out of interest, here are a few pictures of the Running Boar equipment constructed by one of the more talented members of my club.
It's two speed mains powered and on castors to allow it to be stowed at the back of the range when not in use.
Great fun, but also invaluable for anybody wishing to practice for more serious competition.

Thanks Brian, that's very helpful.
