OC Rifle Club

Long Range “Q” Match

April 28th, 2012

<< Short Range "Q" Match | All Day Match >>

As forecast, it was a wet afternoon that greeted the seven OCs who were able to make themselves available for this match. Nevertheless, we succeeded in getting everyone through at both ranges with one-to-one coaching, helped by the use of spare target space made available by other teams with fewer shooters. Your reporter found the most trying aspect of the weather was the poor light at 1000 yards: he can remember seeing the aiming mark for sure only twice in the ten shots and was relieved to get up from the firing point with a score of 45.2.

The match was decided by teams of three with two nominated at the start; the results are:

 

Team 900x 1000x Total
Old Framlinghamians “A” 147.16 142.16 289.32
Old Lawrentians “A” 141.16 139.8 280.24
Old Cranleighans “A” 139.10 141.6 280.16
Old Framlinghamians “B” 143.13 136.8 279.21
KCS Old Boys 138.14 136.10 274.24
Lancing Old Boys “A” 143.17 129.6 272.23
Old Cranleighans “B” 140.11 132.8 272.19
Old Lawrentians “B” 135.2 126.5 261.7
Lancing Old Boys “B” No rec’d No rec’d 176.13

The Old Albanians did not record a score and the Old Alleynians did not take part. It is apparent that we could not match our performance of 14th April but we did not disgrace ourselves either.
