Never tried this.. I'll give it a whirl

Adam,
Just used to postal shoots so automatically assumed we were posting the targets. Your way sounds a lot easier.
As you say we could do a couple on the weekend, publish the results here (for better or worse) that would be great.
The Martini sounds like a blast.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

Graeme,
Joes famous carbine is legendary, how it manages to shoot .303" down a smooth bore 20 guage pipe never fails to amaze me.
It shoots pretty consistently at 100yrds with 1 in 50 shots hitting the target, shot rested in the trench, and that one shot always keyholing.

I'm well, Adam. Back on my feet and getting into trouble again. I'd had my right Achilles tendon repaired last April. 6 weeks on crutches, another 6 of rehab, and full strength and mobility after 6 months. It wasn't too bad as it was an old injury and I'd had time to plan for the down time. I think I even shot one of the MAH matches last summer. The punch line here is that almost six months to the day after the surgery I ruptured the other one. All I could do was laugh, and have that one repaired. The second one definitely turned my winter routine on it's head.

BTW, I noticed that the Scots Curling Team has been playing under a foreign flag. They're not trying to fool anyone, are they?
