5th MLAIC World Long Range Championships

[dbm]

The 5th MLAIC World Long Range Championships took place at Bisley 11-17 September and I was there shooting all last week. Matches were fired at 300, 500, 600, 900 and 1000 yards with muzzle loading match rifles. In addition to the individual events seperate team matces were held.

My best result was a personal best match score at 900 yards and 4th place. I was also selected for the GB four man team for the long range (900 & 1000 yds) international team match. GB finished 2nd to the USA.

Details of the event and full results can be found at: http://www.mlagb.com/bisley2005/index.htm

Below is a list of the medal winners from last week's World Championships. (The decimal number is the number of 'V' bulls scored.)

Congratulations to all!
