Summer biathlon is being taken over by the ISSF

Lottery funding for sport is administered in Scotland by SportScotland. Alternatively, try your local sports council - Fife have been supportive of other clubs in your area.

It depends which country you are in - lottery funding is administered differently in each of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland & Wales.

...or this version...

I think this is what Paul is talking about...

Same story here - my 12 year old started shooting with Shirley's old 1807, but we are moving her onto the Gemini stock because it is a little shorter, and we can get some decent adjusment on the cheek-piece. Don't think Shirley will want to sell the wooden stock though, it's the one she won Gold at CG in 1994 with... There should be plenty of wooden stocks around though - lots of women just bought a new stock when the conversion to Sport Rifle came in 1997.

Hi Mary You can get a System Gemini standard rifle stock right now on special offer from HPS - much better than a wooden one - see http://www.hps-tr.com

I have had details passed to me of a Walther KK200 Power Match smallbore rifle and a Hämmerli AR50 Alu Pro air rifle for sale, in the north of Scotland. They come with some accessories. Anyone interested, PM or e-mail me and I'll let you have more details.

Yeah, but that applied to the old software. Surely this new, super-duper, version can cope with daylight saving automatically

Looks like the forum may still be operating on BST?

I have a Rika "World Champion" 10m Target Changer for sale - never used, still in the boxes. NSRA list price is £259, you can have it for £200 plus p&p if required.

Is there any way the calendar can be modified so a start and end date can be entered, rather than having to put the event in by hand on each day?

Rearsight Iris, 0.8 - 1.8mm £35 Foresight Iris "Vario" - Level Bars or Cross Hairs. Adjustable from 2.3 to 4.3mm, 1.6mm ring thickness. For M18 tunnels. £70 Spirit Level for M18 tunnel - £30 Score Plus M18 Foresight tunnel (with 8mm elevation) available to fit FWB, Walther or Anschütz (note - no rearsight raiser included) - £45 Prices do not include shipping... PM or E-mail me if you are interested

Full results aren't available - the NSRA won't post results of competitions as they've been advised that it would breach data protection legisation in the UK (contrary to the advice that was received in Scotland). There was some discussion about the results in the "National" forum on this site, and there are some photos and results (from a Scottish perspective) on the SSRA site.

I saw a set of offset sight bars on the Centra UK stand at the British Airgun, and I think Centra just launched a new version at the IWA show. Where is the sight mount on your rifle - if it is a side mount then you will be struggling - these are all designed around a top mount like smallbore/air rifles.

Yup. I'm booked into Eley at the end of March, but that doesn't help if I want to check other peoples rifles, or modify the headspace on my own... Mac

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on some headspace gauges for a smallbore rifle? Mac

It might be worth considering getting a new tunnel from Centra UK - they are available for Walther as well as Anschutz etc. Good tunnels, don't think they are too expensive. Mac

Unless of course it happens to be night time in Japan, which it is for a fair amount of my working day... Mac

Should be working now. Swines at my ISP had mapped a directory and not told me :x Mac

Damn. It was working fine earlier. Will let you know once it's working. Donald

I've added a couple of forms to the site (nothing fancy Neil, don't get excited) which will allow visitors to subscribe to (and unsubscribe from) an irregular mailing list detailing changes to the product range and also to request a catalogue. Mac

For those who don't already know, Shirley and I have now setup a company - Edinkillie Sport Services - whose primary function is to supply good quality shooting equipment, hopefully at reasonable prices We are the UK agent for Monard shooting clothing, with a range of jackets, trousers, gloves etc to suit a range of budgets, starting at £68 for junior jackets and £87 for adult jackets. In addition to ISSF clothing, we can also supply jackets for Paralympic rifle shooters. We also have agencies from HPS Target Rifles for System Gemini stocks, butt plates and accessories and from ShootingStuff in New Zealand, and are looking to expand our range of products over the coming months. Visit our website at http://www.edinkillie.co.uk or send me a message if you would like a paper catalogue. Mac

Rob might have a spare back-end, as might Susan, as there were some experiments done with different pistol grip sizes. I have a spare butt-plate you can borrow if you like. It is an older model, but should do for the moment. Cheers Mac
