The call for entries to this match has been put out. As usual, it's set in the beautiful city of Cardiff, which I've gotten to know reasonably well over the years :D Historically, it's been one of the (few) abroad (rather than international) matches that DURC has sent a team to. It really gives great experience to any shooter who goes over, be they a novice or senior shooter.
To this end, I am throwing down the gauntlet to myself; try to get to this match. If I can at least get a range to train in sorted within a month, then I'm going for it. Three months of training should be plenty to get me back into the swing of it. Hell, I've shot some of my best matches on much less prep after a break! OK, air rifle may be a bit different, but I have the basic skills, it's just getting some WD40 on them to loosen myself up a little. Or not, as the case is...
This was in my plan to do this year anyway, though the specific goals will have to be rearranged somewhat, I suspect. I won't know my current status until into August, so that's something of an issue, but, as usual, the aim is an MQS, or 570ish. More realistically, and based on how I was doing the last time I took air rifle seriously, maybe 550-560 with good training.
Let's roll.
