Tried to clean it up a little for you and added it to the calendar.

Thanks. I don't think there will be too many participants. There's no benches, no shade, no running water, and no shelter from the rain. We only have 600 yards of open range and serious rifle shooters.

^^That's what makes it fun!^^

Only three shooters showed up this morning at Puuloa. We need a minimum of 5 shooters, so I called the match off and went to Koko Head.  It was packed. Every venue there had a waiting list. I found a spot to shoot in the middle of the bullseye shooters. Many shooters - Few competitors. If I got there earlier, I'd have shot the HRA event.

Wow. That slow?  What happened?

No Shows. Shooting Highpower is to demanding for the average shooter.

Sorry to hear that. And I know what you are saying. 
I would like to get into it, but the gear and equipment is out of my reach right now.  I'm just concentrating on F-class for now, less stuff required.
I hope one day my skill, budget, and 'boss' may let my try it.
