You mention sticks or tripod required I was rather hoping some of the longer shots could be made from a bipod but no mention of that in the email? Don’t fancy a 600m shot of sticks although I’m sure it’s possible of a tripod which I don’t own mmmmm
Longer shots will be made from a bipod but that’s part of the kit we expect everyone to have already. That list is of things we see shooters not already having.
So much going on!
Our second rimfire match will be at the fantastic ProShoot Firearms range in South Wales!
See you there!

Not going to make the first centrefire match unfortunately... but my Open Heavy build is coming along nicely 
With a few tweaks and some £££'s I could probably make Open Light too
What's everyone else running?

Well, that's the NRL Hunter build done!! Mega excited to get in on this on the 1st March and have some fun with the new rig. Nice YouTube Video here for those who may be interested in the build and what's possible.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
I used my Tikka T1x in the factory stock for the first NRL Hunter UK .22lr match a few weeks back, which served me pretty well, so I'm going down the same route again with my out the box T3X in 6.5 creed, which was 550 quid second hand!Not going to make the first centrefire match unfortunately... but my Open Heavy build is coming along nicely

Chucked on a 20 quid arcarail via the factory stud points, so I can use MDT ckyepod and Vortex tripod. Wildcat mod. Zeiss S3 on top. Total weight = 11.6lb and qualifies for factory. Then carry a shooting bag, binos and rangefinder
It's the exact set up I used on the deer last week (swapping sticks for tripod) and from match the week before. It's purist approach, but this series definitely doesn't need shooters to have loads of kit.
I'm no Joe Pask, but I managed 2nd in skills division, so it's a great leveller. I reckon I'll enter factory and hope for the best...
The photo is my .22 setup, but T3x looks identical with +2 inches on barrel + bigger bolt etc (NB barrel was cleared, no mag, etc)
This is the way! First match was excellent in that sense. I learned so much, didn't focus on it being a comp, just an amazing learning experience. It will unquestionably make me a better shooter and hunter. It was also a lot of fun, great atmosphere.Using my Coyote that I use for deer work
Haven’t weighed it and not really bothered if it makes a class or not
Happy to participate, continue to develop my skill set and support the cause
Great stuff gents! Looking forwards to seeing you all in a couple of weeks!
What was great about our latest Partner is that several members were already having rifles built by James at the point he agreed to come on board! He’s even building one for another one of our Partners!
Having seen his work in the flesh, the fit, finish and performance are exemplary!

I’ll be honest his reputation isn’t stellar and those barrels are known for being rusty. I am not alone with my opinions.
I wondered how long it would be

Had a couple of barrels done by James, a few times he's talked me out of spending money with him.
Saved me a fair chunk of change getting a pre-fit from Heym. Not a bullshifter, has a lot of very happy customers. There's a weird angry man who slags him off on Facebook, who becomes abusive when asked why. His rifles shoot. His prices are a reason to question the value of others, more than him.
Another fantastic Partner joins our NRL Hunter community!
Good evening folks!
For all those joining us at Gardners next weekend please check your emails as you’ve had an update on match information.
