Rifle Practice - Highlands - 14th April

Just a heads up guys,

If any of you would like to join us for the day please get in touch with me.

Chance to shoot whatever you like (except HME) at ranges up to 600 yards.
We start at 200/100 yards and move back to 600 yards as the day progresses.

There will be some ammo available for sale on the day, .223/5.56/303 & 7.62.

I'll be there - leave pass approved! :shakeshout: How much will the 223 ammo be?

I'll be bringing a target to shoot the first round of the S-Class postal competition @ 300m - any problems with this?

Forgot to ask, regarding the 223 ammo - what bullet weight is it? 55gn or under is best for my rifle.
