Thanks mpwolf - I am looking forward to shooting it this Sunday!

For anybody who has never been before, here's a googlemaps view of how to get to Batouche range.

You've got better deer hunting. We're even.

I would love to be there, but we have the Reid-Irving Sat., the Kennedy Sun., and the Victoria Day match on Monday. Now back to the loading bench.
Good luck guys.

Too bad you're going to have a blister on your trigger finger by the end of all that Ron !

 

[MRFixIT]

I'm going to try and attend. Depends on how the bush hogging goes on saturday

 

[rnbra-shooter]

MRFixIT - I'll see you tomorrow at Springfield for the bush-hogging. I'll bring my electronic target gear, we can set it up when the bush hogging is done, and give it a try at 800m/900m.

Dan I should be there no later than 8:30am. I'll bring my queen with me. I would love to try 800 and 900 meters before the shoot on sunday. It still hasn't sunk in that I can shoot at 600 meters and hit the V bull

 

[MRFixIT]

Thanks for showing me the ropes guys Had a great time. I will be back mpwolf.

Here's a shooter getting ready to fire 900m on Batouche range:

The rifle is a .22-250 with a 1-7" twist, firing 90 grain Bergers - a nice laser cannon!

It was a great day. Wonderful weather, a few of the regulars, a returning shooter after a long hiatus, and some newbies. Hope to see everybody again on June 10.

 

[MRFixIT]

Hats off to Mike for the lend of a fine rifle, was a pleasure to shoot. Now to hunt down some 90gr bullets.

 

[mpwolf]

I think I have a few you can try.

 

[MRFixIT]

Thanks for the offer mpwolf. I'm going to give sussex outfitters a call see if they have any.

 

[mpwolf]

[MRFixIT]
