Today was the first day of our OPM after having to cancel the Kings Prize meeting for this year. We did have a few southerners turn up who I think were happy to see the warm weather. The day in general was a huge success even though we would have like some extra numbers. As usual the range didn't let anyone off easily but we did have one who shot clean for the four ranges. The link following is the Hexta scores and the results are also on the NRAA website under results. We do it again tomorrow.

Today's shoot was at 600m, lots of smoke around, good indication of the Dry Season. The smoke wasn't the problem so much as nasty little pockets of air which caught a number of shooters out.
As usual all scores are on Hexta with the members comp scores on the link following.
