I hear bits and prices like this from various SSAA ranges and struggle to understand why there are different rules for different ranges given they're all SSAA.
A lot of the ranges are privately owned as such but fly under the SSAA banner (Belmont is one from memory) and I know of at least one other I used to be a member of, they were great to deal with, we could have loaded mags etc - no anal retentive BS like some others and the last one I was a member of was fine too, we could load mags there no worries at all.
Sadly the ranges are full of "Tactical Retards" most of whom can't shoot for s**t (they are the ones dressed in Camo from head to toe generally)
when ya see one just f*** off down the other end of the range if you can and you should be right, the other one that always made me laugh was the dude who had the expensive gear and couldn't shoot for s**t
you'd check their groups out and it looked like they were shot with a shotgun
$5K still didn't turn em into snipers much to their amazement
Ol mate who was trying to hit the target at 50M should have probably gotten a mirror and put it up again the scope and align the X-hair - sounds like they were way off centre.
once that's done, shoot 1 shot, keeping the rifle steady and X-hairs where he was aiming originally adust the X-hairs to the bullet hole, now everything is lined up and you should be good to go (might need a little adjustment to fine tune) but generally that will get you shooting straight real quick) not like some of these dumbarses who shoot a heap of rounds and still can't get it sorted right
- I seen two coppers or rangers can't remember now but they were f***ing around for ages trying to hit the target, I got sick of hearing the carry on so went down there and helped them out, took a shot at a target at 50m and just did what I described above and had it sorted in 2 shots much to their amazement - they would have wasted a good 40rnds I reckon farting around doing it the way they were, anyway soon had em sorted and shooting which they were happy about (I think it had em f***ed to be honest) they just couldn't get it on paper for love or money
