So you're only bothered about the shooting disciplines you do?

Seems to be, me I'd rather set the foundations for all shooting to grow and 22's and semi auto center fires are a start.

Hold onto your biscuits young man and don't be so keen for a fight! ;) it was just an idle comment.

The that bugs ME most about our laws is the lack of a good safe fun steels calibre. That's all!

So what calibre do you need to shoot steels?, I assume you mean steel plates?.

They shoot man versus man competitions at my local club full bore pistol, skittles clays and steel plates, good fun. The target bellow would be my favourite.
