Uber efficient Uki organisation, has resulted in a double-booking which means that Ashton will not be attending en masse.  We may have a last minute challenger from Oseredok Leicester though.

1st of November 2009

The Oldham facility will be hosting the first inter-Oseredok shoot-off competition on Sunday the 1st of November 2008 from 14.00 until 17.00.  Oseredok Ashton have accepted the challenge and will be fielding a team of "crack" shots, I think they said crack? 

The detail of the competitons available will be driven by attendee numbers on the day.  The more people turn up, the more variety in the competitions. Competitions will be shot with club guns initially and if there is any time left, possibly something more exotic as well. 

Please note, PCP weapons are not allowed on the range unless they have the facility to operate at lower powers and have been cleared by the attending RCO.  Competitions will be over 10m and possiby 6yds, time allowing.  Paul Okopskyj, Oldham facility's RCO, will be scoring the competitions and may even award an arbitrary prize, depending on whether the month has less than 30 days in it. 

Dress is not optional, warm would be prudent though.  There are refreshments available from the bar.  Bring a camera and record the event for posterity or at least as proof for the wife.  The range will be receiving a "Blessing" from our local priest who is also a keen shooter, and if he can make it on the day, he was willing to offer an on-site confessional.

Come along, bring a friend and enjoy the fun to be had from intense competitive individuals, trained and honed to perfiection and sponsored by Obolon.  Spec Savers booby prize will be awarded for the most "challenging" card.  Subject to conditions. 

See you there!

Hatsan 44-10

Check out the Hatsan website from our "Weblinks" and take a peek at the new 44-10 pcp side-lever air rifle.  Ok ok, Who is Hatsan?  At sub £400 do you need to ask when the competition is more than £450?  True, FX is king but only a king could afford one.  I know, we've got one and we're very impressed with it, but we would like to try this bargain basement Hatsan and see how it compares.

Oldham Range

1st weekend in the month, £3 adults £2 children under 16  - free drink to competition winner.    [Eau de Oldham].  Oldham RCO Paul has thrown down the gauntlet to Oseredky to come and show him what they are made of by entering an inter-Oseredok competition.  Interested?

9th National Shooting Day

The 9th National Shooting Day has been and gone!  The day started off cool but then the clouds parted and the sun came out and stayed out.  The main competition went without a hitch as did the HFT competition.  The London contingent had a very good day.  There were a few good conversations with attendees who expressed an interest in further competitions and training sessions.  Oseredok Derby will be providing shooting facilities at the Weston facility in the near future.  The London contingent have expressed interest in a postal competition between interested parties and as a result the Bolton and Oldham facilities will be training to meet the challenge.

Updates:

Results from NSD 9 have been uploaded along with images from the day.  If you have any photos etcetera that you want to post on the site, please contact a club committee member.

Looking for an air rifle?  Checkout the club links to manufacturers in the LINKS section on the front page.  Now is a good time to but with prices down and selection more than usual.
