London and Middlesex Shooting Trophy |
Sat/Sun 1/2 May 10 |
After a 2 Full Bore Range days training at Longmoor and Bulford, the shooting team from Wiltshire Army Cadets went to the London and Middlesex competition at Bisley full of confidence.
The B Team with fairly limited experience, 2 of them had only fired the weapon twice, came 5th out of 20 teams, which was an
incredible achievement.
The A Team managed to do slightly better than this by coming 1st, Which is absolutely brilliant. Particularly when you consider the weather in the morning prior to the competition was awful, all of us managed to get thoroughly soaked to the skin, very wet and cold, not the best range weather!
