What Rd. does Griffins Rd come off? Google maps cant find it. I'd be coming down through Ballan.
There's still a few of Wile. E Coyote's ideas that I haven't tried yet.

You're map/GPS will definitely have 'You Yangs' road on it, which runs past the Little River train station.

On You Yangs Road you turn right onto Ripley Road, then after about 3km left onto Gifkins Road. You've gotta be looking for it though because you can't really see the range from the road.

It does come up on WhereIS maps FYI - http://www.whereis.com/vic/little-river ... 3A4946D61D
See you on the firing line.

Guys, I've printed a bunch of targets and taken the liberty of doing this...

On Saturday I'll be at the range before 9:00am and will grab some benches on the left side of the firing line where they're usually empty.

I'll leave the box high and visible on a bench, so walk along the line until you see the box and that will be our spot.

See you Saturday.

I am so looking forward to see and hear what you guys shoot. Some of them will put my little .22 and .222 to shame.

What's the point in having a larger cal if you don't need it. Most people don't need anything bigger than a 243 anyway. I wouldn't worry to much.
