Once again, Meon Valley Airgun Club will be putting on what is becoming a bit of a traditional "season-opener" as shooters dust off their rifles after the winter lay-off and ready themselves for another year of shooting.

Both the format and the venue of the Meon 50 remain the same as in previous years:

* 50 targets over 25 lanes, set to current BFTA rules

* Held at Meon Valley Airgun Club's grounds at Hen Woods, between East Meon and West Meon in Hampshire

* Nearest postcode is GU32 1HY and What 3 Words are unstable.romantics.dorm

* Signing-in from 8.00am, with the mandatory safety brief (which all competitors must be present for) just before the start of the competition at 10.00am

* Entry fee is just £10 if you book and pay in advance (more details of how you do this to follow shortly), or £15 if you pay on the day

* There will be trophies for all the usual FT classes, plus we will once again be running an FT Sporter class
