    See I can get my excuses in quickly when necessary
    Excuses eh? Well, I've only got a 22yd 'range' to play with at home so there's my excuse in advance...

    I've only got about half of that.

    To be honest, I don't think it's a distance issue as, even if you haven't shot at longer ranges in a while, holdover and under are soon processed. Wind requirements can be interesting, though. The main thing is getting trigger time in. Any trigger time. All I've done since the last Bash is put another scope on a manky old Supersport of mine. Zero it. Fit some different mounts (with another scope) and zero that in. And that's it. Plus a few shots with a Ratty to zero a red dot back in. And neither of these might come to The Bash anyway if it's going to be dry!

    Good excuses, eh? Not needed for me these days......I admit I'm a crap shot!

    Awesome! Are they for practice today or are you bringing them to The Bash, Pete?

    If the latter, please leave one for me; they'd be great fun!

    OK
    I know this is off topic for me but ,,,, if any of you are ever in the position to get a RAW HM 1000 do it
    This thing is so accurate out to 90 yards it's amazing
    3 chalk men in 3 shots and only stopped so as not to hog them (honestly)
    By far the most accurate gun I have owned
    Nearly as much fun as my HC or Sirocco

    That rifle is tremendously accurate. I put a good number of slugs into one hole with it at a decent distance at the last bash - even with the wind and rain going mental.
    Put on heading 270, assume attack formation

    Update: three rifles zeroed today. It was far too hot to be stuck under a lamp, chequering - and Sarah took the kids shopping which gave me the window of opportunity.
    If I can possibly wedge another two project rifles back together this week I'll bring those too - but I'm made up to have a few to use.
    Pete, thank you so much for the kind offer to bring a rifle to loan all the same, mate. Very much appreciated.
    Roll on this time next week.
