There was (or still is) a Winan's Hut somewhere at Bisley as well. If someone can give me the gen I'll sort out Wikipedia. Pictures of the range and hut would be good. Didn't Winan's develop the 'Bisley' grip for the Colt SAA?

here.

Born in Russia to American parents, then settled in England by the sounds of it. Not sure what that makes him... :lol:

bnz41,
Not yet as far as I'm aware, however, if you are only coming for the zero range, ring the Range Office before you leave home.
014837697777. ext. 152
If you can't get through, email me <
john47gardener@hotmail.com> it will come throgh to my poser 'phone!
I'm in the Range Office tomorrow, hopefully to finish the bookings.
