You can blame Mr Bob, I only copied what he wrote.

Amended accordingly.

Kind regards,

Thank you Phil - a simple clerical error I suspect

We are a funny lot in Berkshire, what now remains of the indigenous population is rather loyal to the place. Personally I am a little fretful when leaving its borders

:D

Need to set up a 6yd target frame at the range and see what it looks like, yes I'll be shooting this outdoors. Need to sight in the Gamo for the start of the series but I've just got a .177 barrel for my Tempest, so might add that one in later in the series if things go a bit belly up. :lol:

Guldford - Wokingham - not the same place? :o

I don't travel very far and so I am not too sure about any place if it is outside of the valley, but I guess it must be closer to the edge of this flat planet that we live on so take care not to fall off the edge when retrieving your shot targets.

Your location has been corrected on CAPA and BBS - sorry about the mistake - does anyone live in Guildford?.....if so, maybe they would like to enter - it seems such a shame to waste the name now I have learnt how to type it :D

This is not a shabby turnout for a brand new untested competition. I will be shooting (weather permitting) my first targets on Sunday, I have just picked some new lead sheet up for my target box.

I see none of the Rivvy mob have entered !

Shame really as its the opportunity some of them crave to display their talents on the national stage :lol:

I've not received my target pack yet, hope it's not gone adrift in the post.

A great turn out!

Now that I have my new target holder supplied by Bob with LED's from Graham and my HW75 I will have no excuse but my own (lack of) skill for poor scores!

Im going to shoot my cards in a few weeks time when Ive been able to practice a bit more............

I put a post on the BBS thread "MPL 6 yard competition" earlier today explaining why the packs failed to leave yesterday as planned - (see below) :-

"Due to a fault with the Royal Mail online booking system that affected those with an O2 internet connection the entry packs were not sent out yesterday as planned.

Apparently (it is claimed by RM) that when Sky took over the O2 internet business this week they did not release the necessary security codes :naughty: (?) but hopefully this will be corrected today."


........................the Post Office seem to have semi-fixed fixed their problems today :clap: ( albeit intermittently) and we were able to get them all booked out in-between the online booking failures, so they should all start to arrive tomorrow :pray: .

Sorry about the delay - everything should arrive before the start of the month.........and there is still plenty of time for anyone that has not entered yet to let Phil know that I need to stamp and post some more entry packs out - no problem!

Thanks for that Bob. I've not done my usual round of the other forums yet since capa is top of my list, so hadn't read about RM's latest challenges.

.......still plenty of time to enter this superb 6 yard competition. :dance:

You have got until the end of this month to email your entry and pay your entry by PayPal ( £12.00 including postage for your entry pack) and we should be able to get your pack to you in a day or two so you can start shooting straight away.

Score your cards and email the results back to us at the end of the month.........simples ! :clap:
