BR and F Class Event in SA

[bruce moulds]

jeff,
paul could bring his benches, to lower light, & with what is there we would have plenty.
alan,
perhaps you would like to bring a team of mexicans along.
bruce.

or paul might be able to wangle the monarto range over that easter, and we could also shoot the murray bridge prize shoot on the saturday if we so chose, or alternatively have a layday that day.
1000 yards at that range can be as interesting as lower light.

yes paul would need to decide if he thinks lower light is an option but it should make for an interesting shoot.

bat,
there's nothing to stop you organising it at kapunda. there's good accomodation near the range there, & the benches are moveable.
bruce.

[bruce moulds]

we need that pesky pestbird to chime in on this one. he should have first pull on who runs it, but if he can't, it can still be done, due to other options.
a bit of trial work, and this could become a good fixture, for the mutual benefit of both disciplines.

paul has put all the effort into starting 1000yd br in SA so whatever happens its his call.

[bruce moulds]

bat,
unless someone pulls the rug from under him.

I second this sentiment whole heartedly and no-one is pulling the rug out from under him!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paul has asked me to discuss this with the SAFCA committee and as a possibility for being a one off event at Lower light. I will be discussing this with the committee over the weekend.

Bruce if you want to put your hand up to help out, it would be much appreciated!

i just thought bat sounded like he was chomping at the bit to organize an event.

Thanx Bruce!
I think something good will come of this hi-jacked thread and hope you will get involved.

Alan...
Any chance of moving the BR part of this thread to a new thread called BenchRest IN SA
Thanks,
Ian

Bruce, in discussions with Paul and the committee if you want to suggest a competition format for BR at Lower Light then the balls in your court! I know some members of CTV have in the past spoken about this possibility so now is the time to explore what may be possible and are the numbers (shooters) there to support it.

Sounds like Lower Light has serious competition for future BR events. It sounds good Adam, look forward to seeing what evolves. In the meantime the 1000 Yard Postal BR is on again on the 17th April 2011 at Monarto. It will be a good chance to let us all know what you have in mind at KRC.

ian,
which committee do you speak of. checking with the fclass committee suggests that they don't want to touch br, other than to go along for a bit of fun sometimes as individuals.
also, not sure who in ctv is keen to go into br.
my original suggestion that the event is held over easter at monarto, in conjunction with the mbrc prize shoot seems to have the greatest merit.
that way it would be easy for paul to handle it.
bruce.
