Fullbore Interclub Competition 16/9

The Lincoln & District club are hosting an Interclub competition at the range on Sunday 15/9. It's a team competition, with the best 4 scores counting as the team score.

We won it last year, so let's see if we can keep our success going. All members welcome to attend.

If you don't have a fullbore rifle, you can borrow one!

UPDATE: we didn't win this time, congratulations to L&D. Thanks to our members who showed up to support the club. Let's try again next year.

Family Day - July 2013

We had a super day, dull and a bit cool to start with but warmed up enough for most folk to sit about outside. Ian and family did a great job with the hog roast, the meat was beautiful






The archery and air pistols proved popular again this year
