i was in siberia 100 yards position 7 prone and had 5 &6 empty next to me they were shooting from the Bench .. so for safety 2 slots apart as i was technically in front of their barrels but far enough to the right ... you just have to keep your brain switched on and mind what you are doing , shooting and walking...
A perfect example, it could be very easy to become engrossed in something, get up from position 7 and take the shortest route back to the covered section which is a diagonal path if you are not concentrating. We are effectively our own RCO's and need to be vigilant at all times.

couldn't agree more. :0037: situational awareness is paramount

Hi spud
they told me that during the probation period i can not book a target alone .. i need a full member to book it for me and be there " supervised"
because i am an exprienced shooter i did my probation exam last weekend and passed it .. hence i was allowed to hire an SMLE after that and put 60 .303 down range :0037:

but now since i dont have any "buddies" YET i cant go and book alone... so i am looking for NRA full members that would let me tag along...

they have a training day for probation students tomorrow but that is for the paid complete rookies that are getting tuition... but since i passed the assesment i dont need to do the course which in turn means i cant go tomorrow and put some rounds down range... getting so complex... its :cool2:
So you planning a visit this weekend? fancy a shooting partner / spotter ??? fingerscrossed
