I'm in. This range owes me after last year.

Does Warwick shoot Saturday arvo. I was thinking of coming down for the Saturday shoot and camping the night.

Thanks Graham. I probably shouldn't blame the range for my pathetic scores last year, it was my rear sight. Yeah, I know, blaming my equipment again, but we've got to have something to blame :)

Hi Todd, be great to see ya again if u make it!

Ok coming into town on the Cunningham hwy . Stick to it until Hungry Jacks and turn right at the lights.
Keep on the the straight until the turnoff to New England hwy sign and turn left at the lights . Stick on the New England hwy out of town and travel for about 5 mins at a guess. Until u see the sigh saying Rosenthol rd , Connerly dam rd and rifle range sign. Turn left onto Rosenthal rd and then right onto Connerly dam rd and continue up that road for about 5 km at a guess . From memory the number out front is 676. But that was from my mind last year so not sure how reliable that is !

Ok see ya mate ! Regards Graham.

Todd, if you follow Graham's advice literally, you will be very lost (turning Right at Hungry Jacks :D . He meant Maccas)
You will turn right at a set of lights, with Maccas and a servo on your right as you turn. Hungry Jacks is on your left as you go past it, a hundred meters or so around the corner.
Use this link to this blogs Rifle Ranges Directions page........click on Warwick......and you can't get lost

good luck .....and DO NOT TURN RIGHT at Hungry Jacks :| :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Extreme accuracy and precision shooting at long range can be a very addictive pastime.

Turn right at the lights then immediately left into Hungry Jacks. :lol: When leaving H J turn left back onto the highway. Follow Grahams directions from there. Tony might be confused with the Beaudesert hamburger restaurants. :lol:

Looking like it's going to be a another hot day this year. Still looking forward to the shoot though. It's also looking like we're going to have a few of us coming down from the sunny coast.

Sorry I only had the last 600yds . It nearly got cut as a storm with hail came through and about 3 shooters hadn't finished it . Congrats Dave in open too! And all of the other winners and place getters . Thanks Darling downs for a great prize meet!
Regards Graham.

Yeh, it was a good day. Even with the storm. A big congratulations to darling downs for putting on a great shoot, especially when when you consider it's not their range. Awesome stuff, can't wait to see what they can produce on their new range when it's up and running.
