SRA Long Range Championship Results

The weekend was marked by very difficult wind. By Saturday afternoon it was so troublesome that the last shoot of the day, at 1000yds, was won with 66.6v. The exception was the first detail on Sunday, which was shot in a dead calm at 900yds. By the second detail at 10am it was as bad as ever.

Mike Barton shot consistently well over the weekend, including a winning 74.8v at 1000yds in very difficult conditions for the Irvine, giving him a well deserved win of the Grand Agg, as well the Marjorie Keir ( after a very close shoot-off with John Potter) and the Saturday Agg. Tim Kidner won the Stansfield with a 74.8v in very difficult conditions, the Sunday Agg and the "Long and Short".

West Atholl 'A' ( Mike Barton, Kenny MacDonald, Richard Scott and John Potter) won the Team Trophy.

Mark Joyce looks pleased with his performance, which gained him a free entry to the NRCofS Autumn meeting.

Putting up the gazebos again guaranteed that it did not rain.
