[RobinC]

For the first time in many years we are running a Norfolk Open 10 mt airgun Championships, to be help over the week end of Friday the 8th, Saturday the 9th and Sunday the 10th November at the South Norfolk Club Range at Attleborough, minutes from the A11, so very accessible.

We have classes for :-

Match Air Rifle (60 shot)
Sporter Air Rifle (40 shot)

All events will be run on handicap on your average (except the outright Champions in Rifle and Pistol) with prizes for Disabled, and Juniors. It will be to ISSF rules, but with a sympathetic approach, and we will have a lot of fun.

"Sporter" is an international class, but in the UK and abroad its predominantly shot by the Scouts, its shot standing on the same 10 mt targets, specific shooting clothing is limited to a glove only, so no kit required, and the rifles are limited to several budget makes, predominantly used are various models of Air Arms target rifles and the variants, from the 200T up to the MPR, dioptre sights allowed, the same as Match Rifle, trigger weight is minimum 500 grams same as Pistol, total rifle weight 3.5 kgs. It's predominantly a youth class, but there is no age limit, so it is open to all. We will run on a handicap based on average, rather than standards classes, so any one can have a chance to win.

Hi Robin,
I don't think you can add any document directly to a message.
So, here's a link to the Norwich City Target Club Google Drive where I've put a copy of the entry form.
Hope lots will now enter - and also come and try the NCTC too !!

Hi Robin,

I am just about to extend the kitchen and need to get everything water-tight and finished before Christmas (this year) so I won't be able to join you in Norwich, but I would love to come down at a later date and shoot some 10 metre Supported Air Rifle in your club, and I am sure I could bring a couple of RMTC members with me as we are keen to shoot and promote this "new to the UK" discipline.

Do you have the supported rifle stands in your club, or would we need to bring our own stands with us?

I am sure shooting with you would be a lot more enjoyable than standing in the mud (water down neck etc) and trying to get the mortar to set before it drops below 4 deg each night, but once the walls are built and tiles and Velux roof windows are fitted it will be dry (but still cold) inside for plastering......and then fitting the units/plumbing and electrics.....

Sorry I can't make it this time!

Bob.

Hi Robin,

Can you please check that the Supported Air Rifle Class only has 30 shots?

It looks like a mistake if the Supported Air Pistol is 60 shots (same for air pistol and air rifle at 10 meters!).

I think it should be 60 shots for the SAR event like the other 10 meter target classes.

Thanks,

Bob.

[RobinC]

Thanks Bob,
It was a mistake on the post, I did that on a busy morning! Its now corrected, its correct on the entry form, ALL the supported classes are 30 shot, it was included for a number of disabled and "mature" shooters who are not used to 60 shot matches so the decision was made for 30 shots, any one can shoot 60 if they wish but only the first 30 will count for the comp.

We'll miss you, but why not get some of your others to come, we'll even brief the local breweries to stock up!

Have Fun
