Shooters taking part in the Southern Downs Rifle Club’s regular shoot on the Risdon range on Sunday had to contend with the gusty variable wind conditions that seem to have become the norm at 500-yard mound.
Richard McKillop, back from a holiday, showed he had not forgotten where the bullseye is. He scored 124.8 to win the F Open Class ahead of Murray Reck (121.9).
Although several regular members were missing this week the competition numbers were good and the shooting competitive.
Abe Basson shot very well to take out the F Standard Class.
