Well I'm looking at getting a gun over the next few weeks. Then if anyone ever wants to go along to bisley and shoot we should arrange something. Its just pay and play there.

I shoot at Bisley on a fairly regular basis. I've had a few enjoyable sessions on thier World Class clay galleries in the past but these days I'm mainly into .22 rimfire and .243 or .308 as and when the longer ranges become available.
Looking forward to my first 1000 yard session in August.

Round your way is Prestwood CPC who shoot alternatively at Hunters farm by Fleet Marston, just outside Aylesbury and High Wycombe, up by the old ski slope.

Theres another shoot Gerrards cross way, but not been there.

Hornet shooting ground in Long Crendon host mainly registered shoots, good if you want to test yourself.

And also Ian Paynes shoot by Deep Mill in Great Missendon - usually a very good shoot, 12 stand 100 birders.

Plus West Wycombe shooting ground, probably the nicest most pro ground Ive ever been to.Not cheap, but worth it to spoil yourself now and again.

Theres probably loads that Ive missed too.
