It's been really busy today. On the Target Shooter stand - not had chance to look round yet but should have some help for Sunday

I went yesterday. We drove up from Staffordshire and got to the show about 9 o'clock. I had a wander around the stands, had a look at some very nice guns and some optics. We left around lunchtime and had something to eat in Harrogate and came home. It was quite busy but that's good in a way as it goes to show that the popularity of shooting sports is on the rise.

Very good show with excellent facilities.
Plenty to look at and found everything I needed at internet prices or less.
People running the stands were extremely helpful and had time to talk to you which in itself, influenced my purchases.
I will most certainly be back.

Just back, spent some money

would have spent more if one of the few stands selling reloading consumables took cards, and no cash machine on site..
Not bad day out at all.

Went on Saturday, amazingly no traffic just drove straight there without any problems - big improvement over last year.
I don't think it was as busy spectator wise, was shoulder to shoulder last few years.
Also think there was some stands missing that were listed as exhibitors.
Bought the Gunmart goody bag for a fiver, had a gold ticket in mine and won a Rottweil flask which was great.
Poor show for reloading supplies - no one with N320. And very little in general.
Had my mate with me who has just started shooting and got his tickets but I think he was disheartened at the price of rifles - I did try to tell him before he began the process!!!
Enjoyed the day overall.

Yes I had a new AIM drag bag on our list but despite being on the exhibitor list they weren't there. And yes reloading stuff was scarce, my earlier comment was where I found some lapua 308 brass and RS62 on a stand but they couldn't take cards.
