I would like to add that in future we will be holding a 3P event on the Saturday before the prone event for all competitions from now on. Although only two took part this time, it got the thumbs up and anyone who is serious about 3P should enter due to the dearth of 3P events generally.

I have to congratulate Rathdrum on a well-run competition. I enjoyed all but my own results. The range was even warmer than I remembered, I could still see my breath condensing, but my right hand didn't go numb from the cold.

It was the first time I've shot on Rathdrum's electronic targets in Rathdrum itself (I've shot twice with them in Midlands). It's an absolutely fantastic system. If you haven't seen them in action yet, get down to RRPC and have a look or, better yet, have a go yourself.

Next time we'll put a fan heater under your table Conor . But thanks for the write up, you're too kind

Seconded . Visitors always welcome.
