Did we have a great time ? You bet.......

Air rifles from the humble IHP N25 to the mighty Airforce Condor and every thing in between, including a Daystate with the the electronic trigger and control system, graced the meet.

Lots of info shared, lots of banter and lots of serious shooting, highlights, not necessarily in the mentioned order....

1) The fantastic Pune weather
2) Rohan's farm
3) Hitting the plastic bottle at about 60 odd meters even with springers :wink:
4) The Pasta, Chinese noodles and the Chicken Biryani
5) All you folks who came for the meet

Pics will surface here in due time.
Another event planned for around the 20th of March.

As an example of overcoming adversity, Karoly Takacs has few peers. He was part of Hungary’s world champion pistol-shooting team in 1938, when an army grenade exploded, crippling his right hand. Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

:agree:

:cheering:

Briha sir, Orion wasn't one of the 60-yarders. I don't (yet) have a scope, and at 60 yards a 2 liter soft drink bottle looks smaller than the foresight! I did shoot a 60 yarder with your Orion, though! Just you wait till I get a scope on!

Can't wait for the next edition. Just hope my bosses (at home & work) cooperate everytime!
Cheers!

It was a great fun normally we don’t get 60 yards open space for shooting
As all PCPs are hitting a can consistently at 60 yards our Springer’s was not far behind
Yes Briha Sir The Springers gave the PCPs a run for their 'Moolah' by hitting Beer Cans at 60yards

Thanks FantumFan, Rohan & AGN for organizing such a great event
Special thanks for AGN for last minutes logistics arrangements

& thanks all who was present at JAPA
