European Long Range Target Rifle Championship Results

This weekend has seen the European Target Rifle community brave the elements on Stickledown to compete in the European Long Range Championships. While Saturday produced generally favourable conditions, this morning competitors were greeted with varying levels of  precipitation, from light drizzle to heavy monsoon!  The challenge in achieving a decent sight picture was tough on shooters, and variable winds made for interesting calls by the coaches.

The team championship was followed by the individual event, shot at a single distance – 1000x. With clouds and rain moving in shortly after the match began, only 3 competitors managed to see through murk to complete all 15 shots!

Safety Notice

Safety Notice – Hand Loaded Ammunition

Since April, there have been three accidents involving hand-loaded ammunition that have resulted in injury and damage to property.

The NRA’s investigations show the underlying cause to be errors made during the hand loading process.  In all three accidents, an incorrectly loaded case caused a breech explosion.

The NRA Rules of Shooting para 116 places a duty on the firer to ensure the safety of their firearm and ammunition individually and in combination. Responsibility for an accident lies in the first instance with the individual.

Club officials responsible for shoots on MoD ranges are reminded that the Club agreement with MoD includes a statement that the Club will obtain confirmation that hand loaded ammunition used under the Club’s supervision on MoD land ranges falls within the safety limits for the range.

All members should comply with manufacturer’s instructions for the use of reloading equipment, in conjunction with reputable load data. Failure to comply can result in serious injury to the shooter and others.

All members that hand load ammunition should use only reputable sources for load data and should not exceed manufacturer’s minimum and maximum loads.  Members interested in home loading are encouraged to attend a training course provided by a reputable organisation.

Coronavirus Update: 2 April 2020

We at the NRA hope you, your family and friends are all well during these difficult times. Our thoughts are with those affected; our admiration for those front-line workers fighting the pandemic; and our respect for those serving their local communities.

We are all coming to terms with the “new normal” that has turned our usual lives upside down. Sentiments have moved from unsettled, to worry, then unease, but I now sense a growing mood of determination to see our way through the restrictions to the time when we can see our extended families and friends, go to work, and enjoy activities we previously took for granted.

Target shooting is on pause, ranges across the country are eerily quiet, and clubs are waiting for the red light to turn to green. The NRA, like many other charities, is experiencing exceptional challenges that threaten our future. Hard decisions have been made, and more lie ahead. 60 of our terrific staff have been furloughed and are at home with their families; 17 are working from home or Bisley to serve our membership and affiliates, and maintain Bisley ranges and infrastructure.

We are determined to remain available and accessible; phone calls, letters and emails will be answered! The ranges and property at Bisley are being carefully maintained to allow shooting to return as soon as restrictions are lifted.

The NRA, like many other charities, is experiencing considerable financial stress. Although the Association is thankfully solvent, we have been obliged to arrange financing to cover cash shortfalls that will arise from the lengthy closedown of our ranges over the busiest months of the year. The continuing support of our members and affiliates will be critical, and we have been heartened with the messages of support received over the last few days.

Closing the ranges, furloughing staff, and cancelling all competitions until September made for a miserable week. Losing the Imperial was a special blow; it survived many National crises in the past, which highlighted, if anyone was unaware, the extraordinary circumstances we are all experiencing.

NSC and NRA staff are now focused on the future; resetting thousands of range bookings, rescheduling training courses, servicing targetry and other range infrastructure, and exploring options for an autumn series of competitions. We have even seeded the unattractive NCSC clay ranges, and I find myself for once praying for Bisley rain to chit the grass seed. There is no certainty when our ranges will open, but we will be ready whenever the restrictions are lifted.

Target shooting away from Bisley faces similar challenges, and staff have been busy fielding calls from club officials. Sport England has just announced a new fund to support sports clubs experiencing short term financial hardship or closure; see the NRA website for further details.

Finally good luck, and best wishes from us all. We hope you and yours stay well, and look forward to welcoming you back to Bisley soon.
