Greg Wilson, Nick Kent and Gary Snelling were among a large group of shooters to take advantage of the near perfect conditions on the Risdon Range last weekend.
There was a good turnout for the Southern Downs Rifle Club’s Sunday shoot and just enough wind to make things interesting.
Greg Wilson who shot in the Open class could do no better. His perfect score ensuring a win in that division.
There was some fine shooting in other classes and Nick Kent and Gary Snelling did well to win the Standard and Sporter Hunter classes respectively.
Results from the 400 yard mound.
