Hi mate , if I make it I'll only be the major comp. you are in good form and I had no answers to the high standard u showed at Warwick . No doubt a lot of hard work and well earned . I'm scared ... But I'll put up a friendly fight . I hope the mojo for is me is flowing because I'm gonna need it !

Including me and Joe from Bankstown and 2 others from concord, I can name 4 who did fsb last year, both lead-up and main event.

I believe, if memory serves right and it is not in the right place right now, there were 7 fsbs in leadup and 15 in the queens.

I expect it to swell a bit this year as I know of 2 new members of our club looking to gain some experience.

Bshrestha01, are we talking about the same queens? I believe this thread is about the NRAA queens held at Belmont, Brisbane. 18th to the 22nd of June if memory serves me. I just looked through last years results and confirmed the attendance numbers.

I'll be there.
If I can get a new barrel sorted in time it will be FO, otherwise FSB.

Ok ... For those of you that think that Cam hasn't competed much . He's not going to much of a worry . Or Julie is not going to be a threat !

Hmmm ... today At Dalby RC , typical Dalby conditions . That is left wind to a gust , then Nill wind , then right wind to a gust all in a detail or sometimes twice at 600 yds !
Cam McEwan first 10 count 60.4, 11 count 66.8 total 126.12
Julie Mc 59.8 , 64.3 total 123.11
Using a 6.5 mm ( only just mucking around !)

Yep they are in form !
Also DS a young feller I'm mentoring shot a 58.4 10 count with my $350 Omark topped with a Vortex . That was his first try in f class ever. Congrats mate .
Won't be bringing him along again lol!

I wonder why people mock the Omark. They are pretty good rifles. I have the original Omark, absolutely no new stuff, except a big pin in the bolt (which was done about 6 months ago) and I managed a 59.5 with a $60 chinese tasco copy scope.

My only reason to not use it as a regular F-Class rifle is: 4.5 kilo .308 rifle with no padding in the butt.

Bahahaha, I don't think anyone on this forum would be silly enough to think something foolish like that GS.

We will most likely be lured into their warm smiles, kind conversation, humble ways and BOOM!.......... the weekends over and we're left in their wake :oops:

.
Some people just make this game look WAAAAAAY too easy.

It'll be good to see you guys.

Looks like me a Fairbairn will be battling it out in FTR, Nikki Slee is going tk make an appearance too.

Could be a good bit of Comp on in FTR!!

I know an Fopen bloke who's coming from WA and bringing a .308 as a backup, let's hope he drops his open rifle and has a crack at FTR too.... Shaun!!
