Update – The results were delayed due to the need to dry everything out including the score sheet!

Anyway the results are now on the relevant page for the pairs. Although the weather was somewhat against us it was not as bad and expected and we did the shoot largely as published. It was good fun in the end and a good way to do something a bit different. I may add another pairs shoot somewhere in next years program.

We held the AGM and this was well attended and it was largely agreed that it will be BAU for 2026. The membership fee will be increasing and we were supposed to do this last year but missed it so you got 2025 at the 2024 price.

For 2026 it will be increased by £10.00 to £130 for NRA members and £150 for Non NRA members. I will be publishing the program for next year over the holiday period.

Enjoy Christmas (or festival of your choice) and we will see you at the Hero shoot.

Course of Fire is now on the Course of Fire page Please read and take note

The Christmas Shoot approaches and we will be publishing the program shortly but its likely to be along the lines of last year.

What we do know is that we will be providing some Sausage Rolls and Mince pies etc so you will get a head start on the festive snacks. You will need to being a wrapped gift to the value of between £5 to £10 (you cant seem to get anything for £5 these days) as an entry to the shoot and then the participants will be able to choose a prize at the end.

After the shoot we will hold the AGM so you are encouraged to attend. Questions to the committee should be sent in advance so we can research any necessary replies if needed.

Come along for a shoot, bring a gift, eat some snacks and contribute to the AGM.

What’s not to like – see you then

Update

There was a promise of poor weather so a only a hardy 111 turned up and were rewarded with sunshine, clear sky’s and no rain! This shows that you really need to come along as you never know who its going to be.

Scores are on the results page and well shot all. To all of you who stayed away then you missed a good one!

Thanks to Kev who has kindly repaired our Gazebos – we depend on volunteers!

The next shoot is Service Rifle so grab your rifle of choice and come along. Its going to be warmer on Sunday (but it may be wet!).

The program is on the Course of Fire page and the file is called 251125 Service Rifle 4 so please download the correct one, Read it and come along.

We will see you then

Update

Great turn out with teams from Wandsworth and Horsham joining us for the day. The TR team event was won by Wandsworth with Dorking second. Dorking just piped Horsham with a point and a V but its points that count.

We raised £350 for the Legion and overall it was a great day with the inevitable Sausage Rolls! The scores are on the results page.

Sundays shoot is in aid of the Royal British Legion and we shoot 2×10 at 300 and 600 yards with teams from Wandsworth and Horsham attending as well.

Details for TR and Scoped Rifles and all are welcome in support of charity. There will be a variety of snacks afterwards and to shoot you are required to make a donation of at least £5.00 in aid of charity. To be honest we have charged £5.00 per shooter for as long as I can remember so it would help the charity if you could think about a larger donation (£5.00 is still the minimum).

So come along have a shoot, support the charity and have a sausage roll or two!

See you then

Update – Scores are on the results page some pretty good shooting all round. Only three TR shooters but they are nicely warmed up for the Boar Hill Remembrance Shoot in two weeks time (you are all expected to attend and support the Charity event).

Overall winners were Rob B for the TR with 147.16 and Scoped was Darren with 150.26!

As the A Whyte / Garrick is two competitions then the individual comps were TR / Scoped

A Whyte – Rob B 74.8 (TR) DanT 75.14 (Scoped)

Garrick – Ryan W 74.5 (TR) Darren McD 75.15 (Scoped)

Well shot all – See you at the Boar Hill

Sundays shoot is TR & Scoped Rifle shoot with 2×15 at each distance. This is open to all so don’t be put off by the C word in the title. You do not need to submit a score if you don’t want to.

Anyway it should be a good shoot and is an opportunity to shoot several distances and prepare for the Boar Hill Remembrance shoot in November

See you then

Note – On Saturday Night the clocks go back – Don’t forget!

Sundays shoot (not sure why I say the day as they are all on a Sunday) is a Gallery rifle

Its an opportunity to zero rifles (lest face it some of you need to do this) and shoot the items that dont get out much so come along and bring plenty of ammo.

See you then

Update – Good shoot and 9 scores of 50 with 4 scoring 50.10. So there is no shortage of good shooting on the day.

Scores are on the results page, see you at the next one that is a Gallery Rifle.

Sundays shoot is a McQueens at 300 for modern rifles (Nominally)

I expect all of you know how this works by now so please remember to:-

Be Ready with Rifle and ammunition to hand

Do your turn (s) in the butts – you may need to do more than one

See you Sunday

Update – Shoot completed and the scores are on the results page. Good fun all round and we mostly dodged the weather!

The next shoot is a Gallery Rifle at 100 – See you then

Sundays shoot is at 300 and 500 yards with the nominal course of fire at 2x 10 at each distance. There is a competition for the Gravett Cub but there will be a practice running alongside so the comp is optional and all are therefore welcome.

I know that many of you are not fans of competitions but some are so we have to manage the shoot for both camps.

Anyway we try to keep everyone happy so come along and we will make the most of it.

If the weather is awful (it cant make up its mind at the moment) then we will re consider on the day.

See you then.

This was not a competition so no scores to update but we did see the first of the new Bench at 600 yards. This was built by Mat (many thanks to him for this) and it proved to be a popular addition.

There are some more images on the Pictures page.

Easy shoot on Sunday as its a practice at 500 and 600 yards.

Please make sure your rifle is zeroed for the distance and bring enough ammo

See you then

A good and busy shoot with plenty of action and no rain!

Some excellent shooting with difficult targets. Rob (Mr Single Shot) and Dan tied for first place with 145/13. The scoring is awkward and the 300 total is halved to make it out of 50 per distance. The total V’s are shown Gross so they are shown in total. We have to do the scoring somehow!

We have taken a while to get this shoot right and I think we are about there.

Practice 1 is at 300 with P2 t 500 on a 300 target and P3 at 600 on a 500 target.

Anyway its not perfect but it will do.

Scores on the Results page

We made this a bit harder on timing and on smaller targets.

Sundays shoot is the second Scoped Rifle Shoot of the year. The COF is on the Course of Fire Page so download it and have a read.

It was a bit too easy last time so I have changed some of the timings and added a compulsory reload to keep you all interested!

Should be fun and we will see you on Sunday

In between the showers we had a good day and now having dried out the scores are on the results page. Some good scores achieved and a decent shoot overall. There are some more pictures on the Photos page so take look there.

See you at the next one – Scoped Rifle.

Sundays shoot is the swapped Service Rifle that had to be re arranged. The course of fire is on the COF page and is The one entitled

250706 SR3 Course of Fire

Please make sure you download the correct one and bring along enough of the right ammo.

The weather looks to be ‘changeable’ so pack for anything and we will see you there.
