https://eley.co.uk/eley-set-to-revolutionise-shooting-sports-with-the-el...
The targets will be airmailed from the UK and will include a unique code for each shooter after u enter 6 targets so maybe a 2 day shoot i am thinking ?

Bill I can’t see wrabf in the rules anywhere.
Newcastle has 17 benches in operation and we can run relays if needed .. unfortunately only Newcastle members can shoot at this time. Who knew where we will be in two months.
Kim
I have listed the rules they are set by Eley they consulted with me on a couple of things and are based on wrabf hv rimfire rules it does not matter anyway this is an Eley Comp and rules as listed with everyone welcome. I am glad u will be running it at Seaham and understand it has to be a members only thing as some ranges have this in place due to Covid. It's all good have fun, good luck and if u feel like posting your shooters here like i have please do so same with results... Shooters need to register and pay via Eley website then their targets and competitors pack gets air mailed out to them.

As per WRABF/IRB we will alternate details and move along 2 benches each subsequent detail. Covid distancing rules means a gap between shooters thus odd bench numbers only will be in use.

There may be a need for those that only have 50 yards ranges to be inc apparantly in the USA it is more common if so Eley r considering a 2nd smaller target for those shooters allowing for the slightly shorter distance.. keep u posted as i hear the updates
Bill Collaros Australia
"Shoot to Thrill"
I think 8% shorter distance equates to 8%less wind. I think it is totally unfair to have two sets of rules for one competition. As it was pointed out on another site, they can move the frame back for 6 targets.
What do others think?
Kim
Don't shoot the messenger will let u know for sure but that is how it looks to be so u have to make a choice there is always an issue with postals around the world especially with seasons but it is what it is make a choice one way or another. We will shoot it at SISC either way...

Hi all i am told North Rocks will also be running 10 benches and 2 details so that is another Sydney option. Of course u also have Seaham through Kim for their members and if The Mexicans are allowed out they will be hosting a match too, have not heard about others States plans as yet..

Bill Collaros Australia
"Shoot to Thrill"
Do you have a breakdown of that?
That’s an average of 8 per country. I thought there would be more.
Kim
I will ask...how about you, do u have a list of your shooters ?
Bill Collaros Australia
"Shoot to Thrill"
Not yet.
Kim
I was the only one at Seaham so I transferred to Waratah. I haven’t seen a list and I haven’t received my targets yet although others have.
Kim
No worries can u send me an email to forward to Michael at Eley for u.. at worst u will use local rba targets and upload those
Bill Collaros Australia
"Shoot to Thrill"
Said they have data regulations so no list will be issued at this stage but i guess it will be up and public at some stage when portal etc are with results but the numbers i reported are correct as entries are now closed with targets and welcome packs plus portals etc being all organised amd air mailed in the coming weeks

Good to see Dictator Dan finally letting our Victorian friends out for air, they may now just make it to this match giving Aus another State of reps to have a go in this Inaugural Eley World Postal.

ELEY have made the difficult decision to postpone the upcoming Benchrest Masters competition.
The current pandemic has proven challenging to organise an International event due to ever changing lock-down restrictions involving shooting ranges, the field has nearly halved overnight with new restrictions in France, Portugal, Belgium and parts of Australia.
We will continually monitor the situation around the world and anticipate the competition going ahead early in 2021.
During the run up to the competition we will re-open entries with a goal of making this Benchrest competition the biggest on the planet.
As we grow our Benchrest community we believe communication is key to making this new competition a success for all involved. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact [michaelatkinson@eley.co.uk](mailto:michaelatkinson@eley.co.uk)
Thank you and stay safe.
