    As i said before i only advertise them here. I don't run them or schedule the dates. It's a pity but these dates were selected at the start of the year.

    No. Just register upon arrival at the range.

    It's primarily aimed at rimfire & centrefire rifles and pistols, never really considered air rifles. I suppose if you want to give it a shot and you think the rifle can do the 50 and 100 distances give the lads a shout on their Facebook page and they can answer your query directly. Anything i say is only best guess because as i said above i only help out. I'm not responsible for the rules, etc.

    However i know lads have taken part in the pistol section using air pistols, and i believe one lad has used an air rifle before, so i'd take a stab in the dark and say that air rifles are allowed.

    Midlands rifle range,pitch up on a Saturday around 11AM 9AM if you are pistol shooting.Run what you brung.So yes air rifles are good on the short course. Triple points if you manage the long course with an air rifle.:D[joke]

    Hi Ligertigon,

    Location of the MNSCI is as per the link provided by Cass. You register for the competition and pay your fee on the PISTOL RANGE but you will have to sign in at the MNSCI receiption office

    The rifle competition will start shortly after the pistol competition

    We have had air rifles shoot our Bullseye 360 Rifle Short Course with pretty good results.

    If you are coming down, make sure you have your firearms cert and insurance card with you.

    Just a point to note to all, our Facebook page is only open to those who take part in our Bullseye 360 Competitions.

    Regards,

    Paul

    That or IFA, among others. You need to look for something for an individual. Do a search of the forum you'll find the details on numerous threads.

    You may be lucky and get sorted between now and the weekend, but i doubt it'll happen that fast. If you have no insurance then shooting on a range is off the cards, unfortunately.

    If you're living near enough to the range, why not come on down for a visit, have a walk around to see what we have and what we do and maybe have a chat with me and the lads over a coffee.

    Like all shooters, we love to talk and brag :)

    Paul

    Many thanks for the hospitality. Am in Louth, so not too far away...
