“There was a glitch in the results of The Brownells Trophy for the Home Countries International Match and the medals were presented to the England team. In fact Scotland had won, and they won the Pistol and Revolver matches too. Pulling off a clean sweep. Winning team members will be presented with Brownells medals. The scores can be seen on galleryrifle.com

SCOTLAND were the winners of the RIFLE AGGREGATE (GRCF + GRSB)

SCOTLAND also won both LBP and LBR events

The weather was tropical, sweltering all weekend and no rain.

HUGE THANKS to Jim Smith and all his team, also to all the sponsors who donated a fantastic selection of prizes which can be seen in the attached photos.
