Rotorua Branch Range Report February 2018.

Saturday 3 rd C.N.I.G.C. Service Rifle club day.

Sunday 4 th D.A. 300M shoot. It was anticipated we would have a few visitors to take part but it turned out there was only one individual from Hamilton (Waikato Branch). The rules for the day were pretty relaxed, prone shooting of an improvised rest or bipod. Up to 5 sighters could be fired then a five shot match followed by a ten shot match, total twenty rounds. We did have nine participants which was a very good number. Scores for the day follow.

APRIL; Saturday 7 th C.N.I.G.C. Service rifle club day. Sunday 8 th 300M target shoot. Sunday 22 nd .22LR Silhouette sshoot. ON THE DEVELOPMENT FRONT; I have sent the plans for the backstop and shield for the proposed 50M range to be approved, and once they are we will be able to get that project rolling. This backstop etc is very important as stray shots could end up in the pistol club.
