I suspect Taylor is already there. I will run the tin TeePee out this afternoon.

Well let done others do a little winning once in a while or they may stop engaging in the shooting contests and just get in their cups!

Have a great time and share pictures.

We had a GREAT time. I didn't win a thing - came close in trap with my flinter but no cigar.  I used my short flint 20 bore smoothie for the whole match - lots of fun - only hit one long target, the bunny in the hole - only a bit larger than a cotton tail - about 90 yards - just lucky.  Taylor shot his Chambers NE Fowler with RB - did better than I did - 1 point higher, I think.  I'm thinking of practicing with it and only using it at Hefley this year - time will tell.  Good turn out - 3 new faces - always a good thing.

SRY- never took the camera out of the trailer.

Hi Daryl. I'm glad you had a great time on the weekend.  I'd love to see a photo of Taylor's NE fowling gun. I knew that he had , or rather, had built a Chambers Penn. smoothbore, but I didn't know about the NE gun.  What bore size is it ?

My mistake - it's a Chamber's kit - Pen. Fowler.
