Got a meeting set up next Tuesday to discuss how to get back on the range. Screw the NRA.

Yet again in times of need our national organisations fail us, NRA's mission statement:

"Bisley OK!
Feck the rest."

Following Frday's change to the number of people allowed to group we should be good to go as most of our shoots have less than 30 people turning up.

I never did get a reply from Lamdmarc about the 6 person group limit but the new guidance makes it a moot point now.

I'm not sure it is moot, Jeff. We had our shoot cancelled at Hythe yesterday and it's suspected because of numbers and that Landmark got it wrong. Up to 30 in one gathering is for such things as "life events" such as weddings and funerals. If from more than two households, then I believe the guidance is still in a group of six as a maximum and the gathering is outside and social distancing is maintained...
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?

Oh well, one step forward, two steps back by the looks of things.

Unfortunately the piece I read didn't give the full details, serves me right for not checking fully!

I must admit you had me confused I thought I had missed something. Has far as I am aware it's still only six-shooters per booking. Wich totally baffles me as to why the NRA can open up Bisley for Club bookings.
