The Nationals Championships Weekend took place at Bisley over the weekend 31st August and 1st September 2019.
Team Captain Norman Veitch was hard pressed to make up team numbers due to a lack of members of the Scotland Gallery Rifle Squad who were available to travel.
However, the hardy bunch who were selected were:

The results are still to be published on the NRA website, but at the Prize Giving ceremony, the results were announced of the Smallbore and Fullbore aggregates, so the Home Countries Championship, was won by
ENGLAND first place
WALES second place
SCOTLAND third place
However, not to be outdone, SCOTLAND triumphed over ENGLAND to take both LONG BARRELLED PISTOL and LONG BARRELLED REVOLVER trophies.
Huge thanks to all at Bisley for all the work in organising the events. Also to the weatherman for arranging such fine weather for the weekend. It poured most of the way down and a lot of the way back home. The Lake district especially produced some very heavy rain which caused almost complete lack of visibility.
Hopefully we will see some of you at the JSPC Autumn Action weekend 12th-14th September 2019.
