DS, glad you have lots of fun. I'm trying to get some 135 SMK for my .270 but can't find them. Did you get them before Sierra changed their production strategy?

Gelan and Vince,
You just gotta come over and I'll organize a shoot at my mates private range.
from .22 to whatever, we can shoot from 25M out to 1400 yards from the mound or if you can get a bigger gun (BMG50) we can shoot out to 3km I've never done that range but Ive hit targets out at 1000M and yep its a bloody enjoyable achievement.
The offer is always there, but Id have to make sure we could get access to the range - its a working farm so access can be an issue during lambing etc. Im pretty sure with plenty of notice I can make it happen.

Radar,
I have shot in really flat area but they are out in the hunting lodge, not a real target range per se.
We shoot at drums and abandoned cars, I think it is different from shooting at a properly distanced and sized target

Vince,
accommodation, transport and food isn't an issue - you're be welcome here as a guest , just like I was when I stayed with you and Trish. Flights are bloody cheap ATM, and I'm sure Elvis would extend an invite - won't ya mate.
