Classification Changes for T&P1 GRCF Its tight at the top and no more so than the Timed and Precision one event in GRCF. For all the classified events we have traditionally always broken divisional classes on bullet score. Up until now this has generally been an easy and acceptable way to achieve what we require. […]

Iron Sights Pistol Events At the Bisley GRAWS throughout the 2015 season separate iron sighted pistol matches were offered for the T&P1, Multi Target and Advancing Target events. Although we had some moderate take-up there is not enough people to justify continuing to offer these matches as independent and standalone events. What will happen from 2016 onwards is be a […]
