The scoped event is well underway in canberra. I have been reliably informed by an ANOM source (Dooga Dave) that the CHAIRMAN did not have a wonderful start as the 375 ammo that he brought from Tassie would not fit into his 6.5 that he packed to shoot. Subsequently the Chairman needed to borrow Dooga's rifle and on day one shot the same score. Considering the photo that he (the chairman) sent the night previously to me, of persons enjoying Golden Syrup dumplings cooked by Eileen the Chairman's wife. which I so far have been unsuccessful in getting a taste!!! I would have probably convinced the chairman that a 375 would feed into his 6.5. All the best to all participants, hope its not too cold.

Now let me guess the Chairman is going to blame the mix up of ammo/rifle on stress of having to pack his brother the Toad as well.

Innocent

MTB,

You and I both know that the Chairman would have needed the eeeexxxtra weight induced by the finely prepared and cooked dumplings, to keep his finely hewn frame from slipping and sliding around in that nasty icy weather.

cheers

Deadeye

ps I heard a rumour that he wore ten pairs of socks to bed to keep his feet warm,

Deadeye Dave, you sure they were on his feet?
After all wool socks are readily available in OZ.

Innocent, Nah they were definately for his feet he must be feeling his age or it is awful cold in that northern country called Australia. I also heard that he nearly wore his boots as well

cheers

Deadeye

ps they do not make microscopic socks over here

If the Chairman wasn't such a nancy boy he could have swaged those 375's down to 6.5 with a bit of old manliness on the bolt.

Otherwise by the sound of it, he could have left those 375's out in the fresh night air and got some serious shrinkage factor going; as seems to be particularly common on the Canberra range (the shrinkage ), maybe the shoot could be held in the chill of night under the warm glow of headlights off hairy butt cheeks so that the Chairmans rounds fit in the chamber. I'm sure they would have chambered quite easily then Mr Chairman.

As for down in the tropical south, we'll be shooting clackity clack lever guns in Hawaiian shits tomorrow in the balmy Tasmanian winter sun. We'll probably shoot a bunch of 40's like normal with D'Dave serving up P'P'P'Pina C'C'Colada's. Ah this game is too easy.

Wool 'warmers' this match.... Dozens of those Blue Pills downed at the last match, what is happening to our Chairman

deadeye dave...the finger tips cut off the gloves should work for the chairman. 259,,,,that bloody Southerner doesn't know how to stay warm in the cold north.
Nothing a few Brandy Alexanders couldn't take care of.

Hi All

The real reason THE CHAIRMAN packed the wrong ammo was he could not handle the recoil of his 6.5 and needed a excuse to shoot DOOGA'S new
"7mm Softcock". How many rams did you stand?

Bear

I did offer the Chairman the use of my 30-06, but he chose to go with Dooga's wildkitten "7mm Softcock".
But he still has my full support I'm behind him 100% ;)

hi all
well i will not take the blame for this little stuff up by the chairman .i was there when he stated you see what i am doing this is how you get to
shoot some WOOD DUCK'S AMMO pretend to take the wrong bullets.
it would seem that this is a little trick the he doe's every now and then .when he is buying a new gun or seven to save a few bucks
innocent as for the finger of the glove to keep his little gun warm i have seen this thing a lot of times and as a comparison a door stop would
look small

Why were you looking

259...you have to ask?

Innocent

Well in typical fashion I was all set to shoot my normal 40/40 down here in Tassie while the Chairman was gone. I shoot much better when the Chairman is not present

BUT!!! Again I was foiled! I was expecting DDDDDave to turn up for our balmy tropical winter in his Hawaiian shirt, pour a few Pina Colada's but instead he turned up displaying a new caterpillar. I couldn't concentrate with this standing beside me and dare not take me eye's off him for fear of what may happen.....



How is one supposed to shoot with this beside you??

While the rest of us were plenty cold, Dave's top lip was as snug as a bug in a rug. Much like the Chairmans willy warmer.

i almost shot it the fist time i seen it i though it was a tiger snake attacking him. the only thing that saved him was it was not black. and it was to big for a
snake.
