Will definately run away from work to your place before the holls end. I spent an hour at the range with the new .22 barrel and gsmith pellets, roun heads. Could stack three into the same hole most times I tried shooting some ten shot groups but my concentration would invariably waver. So far it was a pleasure to shoot. Thanks for the pellets. I will do what you have written and post groupd next Monday.
Apologies for being o/t here please forgive.

I am sure that we will all come down some time this summer and enjoy your great place.
Dev,
I am going to hold you to that. Let's do it - preferably whilst schools are still closed for the summer hols. They reopen on 6th and 20th June for both my sons.
Abhijeet, why not combine business with a bit of outdoors?

P.S.: Sent the pellets with Asif. The Crosman Premiers and Eley Wasps are oxidised but if you wash, dry and lube them they should be fine.
To ride, to speak up, to shoot straight.

Ranjeet, Pran and Inder,
Since the 20th is a bank holiday, I am tentatively thinking of doing a three day trip - Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Would any of you be interested?
Mind you this is tentative at the moment but I would like to have your replies as soon as possible because the rains have just hit Bangalore and that means all the fair weather anglers will be itching to go as well.

Okay, I'll book the cottage today but you have to let me know by Monday (16th) morning latest, not Wednesday.
If I have to cancel I'd like to do it well in advance so that it gives someone else an opportunity. Wednesday is too close to the date for the purpose.

Good luck, gentlemen!
Inder, try and get a day off. Sometimes, it doesn't hurt to take a little time off from a crazy schedule.
Cheers!
