After combing through results from the last club championship round one thing is clear, the level of competition is heating up at the Loxton Rifle Club!

Starting with the Short Range we saw a triple possible from both Rick & Jason Gibbs in Sporter Production as well as a possible at 500 yards from Ray Pash in FSB.
Center pins came from Chris Aggeletos and Ray Pash at 300 yards as well as Malcolm Hill at 400 yards.

Moving to the Long range where we saw possibles at 800 yards from Jason Gibbs in SP and Malcolm Hill in FSA, with a 223 no less! Well done Malcolm.
Centre pins were also recorded at 800 yards by Rick Gibbs in FO and Reece Pash in FTR.

The following weekend Both Reece and Jason travelled to Kapunda Rifle Club to compete in the Tikka Cup Sponsored by Beretta Australia.
The boys put on an absolute master class in Sporter Production with the pair taking out 3 of the 4 range wins as well as the aggregate and top Tikka rifle!
The conditions were quite calm at 300 & 500 yards, however, in true Kapunda fashion 700 yards was a challenge. Unfortunately Reece recorded a 0 due to accidental discharge. To Reece's credit, he shrugged off the set back, pulled his socks up and smashed out a commanding 50.5 in challenging conditions to win the range and salvage 7th from 17 shooters overall, well done mate!

Results were,
300y, 1st Jason 50.9 - 3rd Reece 50.7
500y, 1st Jason 50.10 - 10th Reece 49.3
700y, 7th Jason 48.4 - 15th Reece 44.2 tough range boys
700y, 1st Reece 50.5 - 2nd Jason 50.3

Grand Agg, 1st Jason 198.26 - 7th Reece 193.17

Round 1 of the Short & Long Range Club Championships was contested today, with shooters greeted by relatively mild conditions for the Short Range leg of the competition at 300, 400 and 500 yards.

As the day progressed into the Long Range matches at 700, 800 and 900 yards, conditions became far more challenging, with a gusty 9 o’clock breeze testing everyone’s wind-reading skills and consistency on the mound. Despite the tricky conditions, it was great to see some excellent shooting throughout the day with possibles shot by Ray Pash (60.5 500yds), Malcolm Hill (60.4 800yds) and both carding impressive triple possibles in the Short Range competition were Jason Gibbs (50.9 300yds, 50.5 400yds, 50.8 500yds) and Rick Gibbs (50.7 300yds, 50.3 400yds, 50.6 500yds) very well shot to all of you πŸ‘πŸΌ πŸ‘πŸΌ

It was also fantastic to welcome Malcolm Hill and his granddaughter Sophie along for a shoot. Both enjoyed their day at the range, and we hope to see them back again very soon!

A big thank you to Pete for serving as Range Officer for the entire day and keeping everything running smoothly, and also to Bruce and Glen for putting on a ripping BBQ lunch that was enjoyed by all.

Great shooting to all the competitors, and we hope to see you all again next month for Round 2 of the Short Range Championships!

A huge congratulations to Jason Gibbs on taking out 1st place at the Kapunda OPM this past Sunday in Sporter Production Class! πŸ‘

Conditions were far from easy, with strong winds making for a tough day on the range for most, but Jason rose to the challenge, delivering a gutsy and determined performance at 700 yards to secure the win and take home the chocolates! 🍫πŸ’ͺ

An outstanding effort and a result the whole Loxton Rifle Club can be proud of. Well done, Jason!

Just a small group out on Sunday to make the most of the mild conditions.
While the flags spent most of the time pointing at the ground, the mirage offered a little challenge.

Well done to Malcolm & Jason on double possibles and also to Sophie with a possible herself.

Next weekend is programmed for 800 yards with the weather currently forecast for 29 and sunny πŸ‘Œ
