Bathurst Rifle Club Inc., 13^th January 2024, 300 yards, Series 3 Match 1. 

          Series 3 of our program commenced from 300 yards on Saturday with a light breeze that occasionally swung from a south westerly direction to southerly then from the south east meaning shooters had to keep focused on their game.

          Target Rifle shooter Steve Williams finished with a one point advantage after his second stage result to claim the lead for the day over Graeme Bright with Ron Gibson next scoring well after his return from a substantial break from shooting. John Coghill retired after equipment issues during his first stage. Sporter Class shooter James Clarke had a bit more competition in his class on the day but shot brilliantly scoring a double possible for the day to top score over visiting shooter Tristan Hughes who also shot very well competing in sporter class for the first time with Dennis Lavelle next in the class.

          F Standard class shooter Col Howell again showed his ability at the shorter ranges to lead the class over Jeff Eppleston and Phil Mahon who were separated by one super centre then followed by Dave Butler. F Open shooter Geoff Willis led over Mal Wright in that class.

          Shooting will move back to the 500 yard mound next Saturday 20^th January for the second round of our third series.
