May??? An FTR setup satisfies all the requirements for FO.

Barry you have overlooked one thing, I'm not talking about equipment rules. Have you met some of those FTR folk? :wink:
I'll make an exception for Liam 8)

Tiverton Cup - F Standard shooters

Post by bartman007 »

Calling all Victorian F Standard shooters that will be in Canberra for the Queens.

If you are interested, I have 2 top F Open shooters in the team already and I'm looking for 2 F Standard shooters to top it off.

PM me if you're interested, after all the rewards for winning are enormous 8)

Hi All,
Weather report for the first day of the lead up looks good:
Max 23 deg 4-17kph winds and only 20% chance of <1mm rain
I'm planning to use a 284 and saum, anyone else planned that far ahead?
Should be a good turnout as Canberra is always an easy shoot :^o

Weather report sounds good Tim. Looking forward to it after the steamer like conditions in Brisbane at present. Feel like a steamed dim sim getting the last rounds loaded and packing gear in the shed. Just a 284 for me.

It is Canberra so we will get rain at some stage with a heat wave and cold snap at some stage as well. This time I won't be bringing any barrel changing gear. (7 SAUMs have been put away for now)

Might skip weighing primers this time

You guys are sooooo far ahead of me. I only have 50 loaded so far.

Rod, if you're not too busy, can you load me up 200 x 7mm RSAUM + 200 x 6mm Dasher rounds :^o

Looking forward to all that Canberra has to offer/throw at us \:D/

Beats working next week.

Well I'd better go and finish my last couple, not going to get much time over the weekend, will be spending most of it in the tractor getting a paddock worked before I can go away. Didn't have a good start this afternoon went too close to a boggy patch and down went one side and spent another hour and a half getting it out :(
