Using the 'castles' on Century during the week.

[Watcher]

Just planning my clubs October 'Bisley Bash' and looking for something different for one of the half days. Is it possible to book the castles at the end of Century range and shoot a McQueens (says he not really knowing what that is but the pictures look fun...)?

TIA

Yes, your club can book them - assuming the range isn't booked already - just send an electronic booking to the range office and specify McQueen in the notes.

Thank you Heather, will do.

Watcher,

Should you be successful in booking the targets, it would do no harm to contact the range office a day or two before you shoot just to make sure that the message has been passed on to the target people - you would not be the first to turn up on a given day to find that they are not up.

they also have McQueens targets at Short Siberia, so if they are booked on century its worth asking for SS

It costs more on Siberia as you have to pay for the zero target where it's included in the price on Century.

thanks I didn't know that, is it much more ? and can you bring your own? and more to the point WTF!!!! how can they justify a difference price ?

You just pay per target and the castle is classed as a target as is the zero target, it's probably down to range allocation as Siberia is usually busy so they lose lanes (revenue) when McQueens is shot wheras space is easy to find on Century hence the zero target is included.

Last time I shot McQueens on Siberia, the zero target, which I needed, got taken over by the group on the next targets. Some of whom were identified as being part of the Bisley Establishment, whatever that may mean.

if they asked and you weren't using it then fine, if they just commandeered it then a complaint to the range office and a request for a refund is in order.
