Fun Shoot at Camp Borden July 24

[Ganderite]

The Vintage Rifle / Sporting Rifle (AKA "Bring What Ya Got Shoot" is a deliberate, snap and moving target shoot at 100, 200 and 300 yards.

Lots of prizes and everyone has a good time. Bring 125 rounds of ammo. You can shoot more than rifle. I will be shooting a 7.62x39 at 100 and a 308 at 200 and 300.

Amiens range at 8:00am to set up and sign in. We should be done by 3:00.

After the shoot we may stay at 300 and do some extra shooting.

Bring water. It will be hot.

PM me for details.

Should be fun. Ive been loading 7.62 all week!

I'm gonna cheat this time. Almost everybody used scoped rifles last time. I still held my own with the Garand, but I think I am going to break out the Swiss Arms.

 

[ArtyMan]

hahah. If I remember correctly the scoped shooters are in another class then the iron guys. Anyone remember?

 

[ArtyMan]

Also, does anyone have a spare AR magazine they would be willing to lend for the day? I have a Colt with A1 sights and triangular handguards but only 1 magazine. I have more incoming but I am doubtful they will be here for Sunday.

 

[Kevin M.]

If I end up coming I will bring a few out for you.

I'll try to remember to through a couple of mags in my kit. I'm not shooting my AR this time so they are free to be used.

 

[Ganderite]

I have changed my mind. I am going to bring my EAL. I have owned it for 3 years and have never fired it once. It deserves better.

Back to the loading bench. I need 125 rounds of 303 Brit.

That will be up to Ganderite. I think he got rid of that idea though because some shooters used both in the match depending on what rifle they shot at each distance.

I'll be using my CG63 so irons for me for the full day.

One of the few things I miss from Ontario, the ORA and these shoot, have fun all.

Is this a competition of some kind or fun shoot?

"Is this a competition of some kind or fun shoot? "

We shoot 3 10 shot matches at each distance. lots of practice shots first. We keep score.

Most go home with a prize. All fave fun.

A fun competition.

Bring anygun you want - so long as you did not have to tow it....

Last shoot, I was a newbie ...at the shoot as well as the gun....had a great time but that #4 is heavy to hold during the standing shots. Thanks ganderite...it WILL happen again.

 

[Ganderite]

That #4 had a teak stock. proably a couple of pounds heavier than the average #4.

I am going to shoot an EAL at 100 and that #4 at 200 and 300.

Really? Damn, and I loaded the ammo too.

 

[Bolivar]

A tip for newbies and reminder for the rest of us. If you aren't shooting with a scope, bring some kind of optic to see the target markers after you shoot. Really helpful for the sight in at the start of each match and to see your groups afterward.

Doesn't really matter what it is, spotting scope, binoculars, spare rifle scope. They all work.

 

[Ganderite]

I am going to bring some of the targets for the Milsurp Online shoot. Anyone who wants to shoot online targets for 100, 200 and 300 will be able to do so.

 

[ArtyMan]

If I end up coming I will bring a few out for you.

Thanks!

 

[Bolivar]

Thanks!

Looks like you are double covered. I have two Pmags packed in my kit that you can use too.
