Autumn Bash 7th and 8th September 2024

[Blackrider]

Fantastic!

Be great to see you again, John.

Yes, couldn't quite make the last two. I'll be bringing the 80 .20 Cal that Steve sorted for me with your assistance Tony. Not had chance to shoot it to date !

[Blackrider]

Be good to see you John

Yep, I'm in

Cheers Dave, I'll be well up for it !

[TonyL]

What goes on at the Bash stays at the Bash, first rule of the Boingerati so I was told.

Most excellent, young Grasshopper, to see that your indoctrination was fully successful. You have learned the Ways of The Boingerati well.

Most excellent, John.

Would you mind if I had a quick go with her, please? The Boingerati certainly enjoyed trying the Predator over the years and the Vantage this weekend.

Hang on I've just had a thought, what about delrin bands on pellets !!!!!

Promethious pellets!
I can find some of them.

[Neil54]

We can move the fire pit.
Closer to the hedge for shelter, for Waddy. Away from the house for TonyL.

Neil,
Idle hands got the better of me and I started picking apart the cheapo Chinese pistol wreck you gave me last weekend. Well, as you said, someone had 'modified' the trigger sear - some people should be allowed near grinding wheels. On a positive, there were enough serviceable bit to carry across to the other wrecked pistol (from the May bash) and get it going again (I think). So, worry not boingeratti, there'll hopefully be three hand cannons available to dent a few tin cans soon...

I can't make it, imprompatu Birthday trip cost more than expected so cant manage accomadation or Transport and an avalible lift is very unlikely either.

That’s a shame! I remember flyingfish saying he wasn’t far from you if you needed a lift………….

Or was it someone else?

[Segata]

It was Joffy but I know he's not been doing great lately, theres a few around these parts but wether or not they are going Bash for a day or not I couldn't say.

Judging by the way the cans reacted with the girly cal (177) straight through and hardly a wobble.
I think a sturdy .22 cal pistol would definitely knock the tins off the perch. As evidenced by Mike and his .22 hw45.
My bsa Scorpion and Diana P5 Magnum in .22 will accompany me at the May bash.

I am tempted to treat myself to a pistol seeing that target

It really made bringing a pistol or two worth while. Really great target.


Both my HW 45 & Crosman 2240 (both .22) had no problem knocking the cans down, well until the 45 broke


Going to try an old Original model 6 and a Beeman P17 next, both .177 & less powerful than the two mentioned above.

I have found a 2nd hand Gat
That takes me back a few years
