I'll bring an air-rifle, a pile of targets and some smaller-gauge shotguns and cartridges to add to the selection.

Excellent - I hope one or two of our shotgun shooters will be able to do odd turns at the clay trap (if Gent is able to come he has offered to help out), and I want to concentrate on the rifle as far as possible.

I plan a group session on legal issues, techniques and safety on the evening of the first day, and on both days as far as possible to do marksmanship coaching with the .22 Rimfire and .17HMR rifles.

@BB

What was the name of that really light Czech rifle you had last time?

If I make it to the weekend (which is still in question, as usual) I'd love a go with a shotgun. And to come to sessions on the basics. It's really hard to get a handle on what all the bits are called, and the basic rules - all the information seems to be aimed at people who have been around guns for always)

I would like to have a go at both, - it was great fun last time. I am trying to get time off for the event at the moment.

Hi

My partner, Anita, wants to learn to shoot. Primarily as a control for rabbits and magpies... would that be rifle or shotgun? Anyway, are there likely to be any remaining places on the food weekend in April?
