Sealand 300 metre range
    This is the 300 
metre range at Sealand and as can be seen from the red flags, firing is not actually 
taking place (the second "butts" flag is quite small and is just to the right 
and slightly above the "12" marker). The targets in use at this time are very 
small, hence they are not obvious in this view. Target scoring at this distance 
is usually done by means of a butts party, of one person per target, waving a 
'lollypop' in front of the target in order to indicate the value of the shot. 
The access to the butts can be seen on the left and the wall provides protection 
for the butts party. The whole range complex is owned by the military who let 
civilian clubs have access when they are not shooting and usually this means a 
Saturday.
