Yes mate, we all had to surrender many of our toys for the cause of public safety, but to be quite honest, I'm over it now. Those of us that live in the old Empire are all in the same boat and there is no sense in getting bitter and twisted over something we mere mortals cannot change.

I'm happy introducing younger shooters to service rifle shooting via our Precision Service Rifle competitions which run along similar lines to the Britishicon Civilian Service Rifle comps.

Rapids, snaps, sitting, kneeling etc. on figure targets is still good fun even without semis.
