Nice scores - interesting to see that Alan beat everyone on the precision round but not the rapid-fire rounds. And I'd still like to stick an air pistol in Alan and Paul's hands and see what kind of results they get - and give James and Joe smallbore pistols to see how they do (I know James would be up for that).

Well James has shot in a 25m pistol competition in May this year and scored a 430. There's more in common between air pistol and free pistol then with 25m pistol but I reckon air pistol would benefit the lads in terms of the precision stages at least.

The rapid is the one to master really, as most of the points are dropped there.

maybe we could have an inter club match
we will bring the smallbore and you could bring the air pistol
then we shoot both calibres and see who has the best scores??
