Forum Shoot Wednesday 22nd June Diggle Ranges

#1 Post by dromia »

OK.

We have agreed the date and the venue so all the other threads have been move to the old posts forum.

Can we use this thread now to confirm who will be attending, agree start and finish times and discuss any social activity post shoot.

I will be attending and would like as long a day as possible and get as much shooting in as I can, I'm also keen on an after shoot meal and drinks so long as I can get into a handy B&B. :D

Dromia,

I can list some B&B's at the appropriate time - but how do we assemble numbers who will be attending - then we can give the cost.

Also, we need to decide on what ranges we need - if no one wants to go back further than 600 yards, I would suggest booking that one for the day - £250

Cheers

I won't be B&Bing, but a curry before the drive home would be good.....!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Doubt we will be staying but a curry sounds good. I'll be shooting and Mrs 357 may come and lend a hand if free/needed.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

Sunfield 01457 87 4030 half mile
Grains Bar Farm 0161 624 0303 - 5 miles but across the road from the Vamasaki - a fantastic curry house.
Hillcrest 01457 875286 one mile
Newbarn 01457 87 3937 one mile

These are a few reasonably priced B&Bs with distance from the range. All have safe parking. There are more.

Joe and I are up for a ring burner so if we can agree on the Vamasaki I'd try and get us into the Grains Bar Farm for the night.

I have been known to eat the occasional curry as well, would this be the evening of the shooting day as opposed to the evening before?
