Bathurst Rifle Club Inc., 30^th December 2023, 800 yards, Series 2 Match 11. 

          The final 800 yards range for the second series was held on Saturday with the westerly wind often swinging to come from the south as it eased in strength throughout the afternoon. This made for difficult conditions which is reflected in the scores with all shooters present failing to make their handicap.

          Graeme Bright topped the Target Rifle shooters after again finishing the day with a possible to lead Steve Williams by a point with Gordon Shepherd next after he crashed badly in the conditions during his second stage, with John Coghill following. Shooting in Sporter Class Dennis Lavelle managed a reasonable result for the day.

          F Class shooters were entertained by Craig Roberts fine display of marksmanship after he came to try out long range shooting with his friend and Bathurst Rifle Club member Nick Webster who coached him to finish five points ahead of the field of local shooters with Nick his nearest competitor. Col Howell and Dave Butler followed next, after again finishing on equal points for the day with Phil Mahon tailing the field as he continues to trial his ammunition. Shooting in F Open class Geoff Willis recovered from a tough first stage with a second stage possible to top score ahead of Mal Wright.
