Hello fellow airguneros, here are some updates, kind of silent for a while a lot of us were busy with other stuff and a few are busy looking for a regular place to shoot.
We have been in contact with Mr. Binko Reyes late last year and expressed our efforts in looking for a regular place to shoot. He has told us that he may have a place and now finally we are able to give the area a try.
First off, we want to thank Sir Bingko for a generous accommodation. Generous I would say cause not only did he allow us to use the place, but he also had it cleaned and set-up. When we arrived some of his staff were stacking used tires and mang Toto was cutting off shrubs and grass clearing the way for what will become the shooting lane.
The place was cool as there are a lot of plants and trees the shooting line/area is a roofed pavilion. Talk about shooting rain or shine! And since the pavilion is used in functions once in a while (receptions and sunday worships) we will never run out of chairs and tables ;D.
Joining us today was Raymond not in the pics (cause he's the one taking them!
), Bong and one of his shooting friends Paskie.Hopefully next time there will be more of the group and more new friends to shoot with. Check out the pics we were able to take today.

Me, on offhand (actually just spotting for Paskie while he test the zero for his Filarms CB, it a new one haven't even fired 500 shots yet. This rig has a medium tank but manages only 30 shots. Grouping is kinda wide but on chrono gives a consistent 780ish FPS.

Here Bong is checking his Tornado's chrono, still in the 820's range.

Trying Paskie's rig offhand, the gun feels nice was able to hit 30 yard target a couple of times, but this rig has to be check and broken in. Also has a hard trigger pull.

We had a fun afternoon and looking forward to a regular practice and fun shoot gatherings as the place is very ideal for such events.
We look forward to more airguneros joining us in the future and Thankful for Sir Binko's support in our effort who is by the way a fellow airgunero. Hope he can join us one of these days when schedule permits.
Happy Shooting!
