I am also air'd up, and interested in getting back into it, I used to do a little competition shooting with an RWS Sig C225, still have my basic ol' Webley Excel Carbine (with crazy soviet Pilad scope, as used on the soviet Dragunov SVD sniper rifle!).

Might well give one of those clubs a call - good info Zippy smile

Failing that you can always fall back on NERF guns and use them indoors on unsuspecting victims!!

I used to shoot with a .303, then an FN, then an SLR and then an SA80. Happy days. No, I am too young to have shot witha bow and arrow. just in case anyone is wondering.

i dont mind killing vermin as they cause a lot of disease, rabbits ruin farm crops as do wood pigions rooks etc (ive only killed rats up to now), Sometimes killing is a must.....how else would people eat if nothing was killed....im looking forward to shooting off a few pellets at a gun club
just stating my opinion summer01
take care

Why keep it to myself??? i asked a question on here, no one is forcing anyone to read it..the post concerns those who are interested, if people dont like reading stuff like this then they shouldn't read it and that way they have no need to comment
its just an intrest of mine
thanks
take care
