Yes, Ray ... and received a warm welcome from Gary King. They are not open on Saturdays - only Sundays and Wednesdays .... but there were about 8 members and organizers getting the course ready for a shoot tomorrow. And since I had made the effort and arrived with my kit, I was allowed to have a go. There is a brilliant plinking range with more than enough targets and a covered shooting area with the obligatory wood burner and fire pit where sauages and beans were nicely warming on a fire. I was also shown the 30 target HFT course which looked very interesting indeed. I spent about 2 hours plinking and tried to pay but was told the first visit was complimentary and that I was fine to go ahead and have a good time at the range. Really nice location, people and courses. Plenty of space for camping but we would need to check if they allow that. I would recommend strongly that we consider for a future Meet. In the middle of Loughborough but only a few miles from the M1.

Sound good Raj. For years i would get away at the weekends to Barrow upon soar in Loughborough....untill the motorway cut it in half :evil: . It was a real gem and had lovely lakes.
I went back there last year and the site is so run down. The waters edge is filled up with boats and old ramble shacks :o .Such a real shame seeing it :oops:
