Enfield stuff (Newark auction results)

[bigduke6]

Have seen some big fox round my way, anyone out there thinking of a big calibre, join the FCSA as they cater for anything that would go over the joules limit on ranges, such as any belted magnum calibres etc plus the ranges they shoot are around the 1000 metres.
Anyone now found on Altcar (were our club shoots) with rifle calibres that may break the joules limit or considered to be in excess, the range officer will chrono the rifle /rounds and if the limit is broke the person and the club will recieve a life ban. Our club have now put a ban on any calibre above the norm.

Doesn't sound like there's much of an outbreak of common sense up your way bigduke. At my ranges we've been doing tests but there's been nothing which broke the limits in any case as yet. If it did then we'd have to sort it out for the high velocity shooting, but no-one really has much more than the standard 303 7.62 etc in any case, although some homeloaded stuff's come close to the limits.
