Anyone fancy/planning a trip to Diggle?

#1 Post by Demonic69 »

I've not been before and wouldn't mind giving the mosin an airing. It would also be my first full-bore shoot!
Would be good to go with someone who could show me the ropes.
Anyone planning a trip in the near future and wouldn't mind a tag-along?

I have never been to Diggle. Adam goes there occasionally may be he can sort some thing out for you.

I've only been there once, and that was to collect something I'd bought, but it's a great place, and the people I met were really friendly.

The access is not the easiest in the world, but it's well worth the effort. :good:

Well, why not come along this Saturday? We are having a little classic military rifle shoot at 200 yards and you would be most welcome to shoot with us.

Bring about 35 - 40 rounds - we usually kick off around 10.00am. We are a friendly bunch - we'll be happy to 'show you the ropes'.

I'm just heading home from doing the diggle fly shoot, with a big grin on my ugly mug as I won the factory rifle class. It's a four hour drive for me, but worth it. For anybody thinking of going, do it, vince and gang will make you most welcome

Thanks for the generous offer TGP, I'll check with the taking calendar and see if I can make it. What's the cost for a non-member?
Cheers
