Competition Day 4

Long Range Rural Match Day four is the day that closes the Imperial Championship with the Long Range Rural Match. This is a great match as its shot over 6 practices from 100 - 500 yds, and has a run down thrown in on the long range element. This match is sponsored by Vortex so there are Platinum, Gold and Silver prizes for the winners of the match in each class, not to be sniffed at, scopes, weather meters, tripods etc all available! This match usually sorts out the Imperial Winners for the week, so all to play for. Falling Plate Match This is a team match, competitors are not restricted to class so can use bipods and scopes at all mags if preferred, this takes the format of two teams running against each other to win by knocking down steel plates in the fastest time, this is a knockout round to then leave the best two teams of many to shoot it out to become champions. This match is proudly sponsored by G-TEN with some very nice prize Khukri knives as prizes.

Thanks as always to the organisers, RCOs, and of course the competitors who all need to work the butts, which today was super efficient! Photos courtesy of Mr Eeles more photos to follow from NRAUK. Any Videos at the bottom
