I'm sad I missed it.
The Boer Brit Shoot.
This is always an exciting event. However as we did not have a full complement of Barstids available I did not anticipate shooting.
We had finished packing up the Sas range and were about to crack our first beer when Tracer got a “call up” from the BASA lads. (Big Bore Association) they are a great bunch of guys were a team member short and……… not fussy ;-)
The noise, smoke and dust that accompanies a Boer Brit shoot is awesome. As it had been a windless day and the smoke and dust hung in the bushveldt air obscuring the painted steel target plates.Attachment 16322Attachment 16323Attachment 16324Attachment 16325
Shooting in a scoped event Tracer did Sas proud. With a Scoped Marlin Lever action 30-30 he got 4 out of six hits and his team won their round!

These pics show the cannon been loaded with a black powder charge and a bag of mealie meal. This particular shot was a misfire.
All I can say is thank goodness for self contained cartridges and smokeless propellant.
Thanks camo great thread. I think that If I was exposed to that much gun powder and pretty ladies I would also be standing in one place making motorbike noises. Jokes aside I'm sure the effort that you all put in made the day for alot of people
