Light River RC held our third Rimfire Challenge match on Sunday 1st Nov 2026. Attendance numbers were low (only 8 shooters) probably due to showers forecast by BOM. There was intermittent light rain in the morning, but shooting took place anyway. The match consisted of two rounds of 25 shots to count for a possible total of 500 points.
Results from Production Class were:
1st. Cameron Whant 474
2nd. Riley Whant. 468
3rd Richard Braund. 467
4th. Stuart Braund. 439
5th. Adrian Conlon. 424
6th. Craig Visser. 352
Karen Conlon only completed one round and retired following r***e problems.
Results from Production OPEN Class were:
1st. Drew 476
2nd. Chris Quinlan. 418
Many thanks to Karen Colon for handling the money and collating the scores, Stuart Braund for getting the old club BBQ hotplate operating again and cooking the songs for lunch, and Mick Punturiero for organising the event and setting up the targets.
It was originally planned to hold a Centerfire Match at 200m in the afternoon on the same H2 aiming marks. Unfortunately the rain intensified so it was abandoned.
