Haverfordwest Target Shooting club again hosted the Galleryrifle Welsh Open for 2018. Now a three day meeting running from Friday morning to early afternoon on Sunday.
The venue also plays host to a Wales – England head to head match . The match was the finale of the Saturday’s activities and resulted in a narrow victory for England. Results of the head to head match and the individual match results are below.
The GR section of the imperial starts on the 18th July and continues till Sunday inclusive, for those who have been before its a laid back mixture of medal competitions available every day which can be re-entered as many times as you have the ammunition to shoot, and trophy matches which happen on the Saturday and Sunday.
The details of what is shot can be found in the GR book and the ‘Bible’ I have attached the range plan for Melville so you have some idea of times and where to go.
Booking in and entry forms can be collected and handed in in the ‘coffee lounge’ at the back of Melvile so no need to hunt round the NRA offices
The Derby Open took place from mid day Friday 22nd June to Sunday 24th June
It was a record breaker with 114 competitors and over 1120 events being shot. It was fantastic to see 15 new faces, some completely new to the competition circuit.
I think you will agree that the prize table was excellent with numerous high value prizes to be chosen. This was mainly due to extraordinary support from the eleven sponsors who supported the meeting. It is worth mentioning them by name as they deserve our thanks and having confidence in our sport. Please support them in return.
The Home Countries International Match was won by Wales, congratulations. England won the Pistol and Revolver matches. Winner team members were presented with Brownells medals.
The Man v Man LBP event was won by Gary “the Bullet” Bowden with Adrian Kwa second. The Man v Man rifle event was won by Jim Starley with Jake Mossom as runner up.
The Mini McQueen was won by Laura Warwick (using Jake’s rifle!)
The entry fees from these competitions and donations at the BBQ raised £286 for the Air Ambulance. Thank you for your generosity.
The Derby Open is a team effort and would not be possible without the 30 or so Range Crew who worked unbelievably hard over the weekend. Special thanks go to Team Smoothy for their help and not forgetting the guys in Stats who produced the final results in record time, and most importantly Pam & Mick on the BBQ.
We hope you all enjoyed everything, and the weather was OK too.
Early Bird entry deadline – 2nd July. Entries postmarked 2nd July will be deemed to have been completed by 30th June and are eligible for the £3 per match reduced fee – i.e., £5 per match.
The 2018 FDPC Western Winner was held for the second time at the Shepton Mallet Target Shooting Club – the indoor home range of FDPC. Many thanks to the headline sponsor of this event – The Sportsmans Gun Centre.
Taking place over the weekend – 12th – 13th May it was a busy couple of days. Four events were offered in all gun types – T&P1, Multi-Target, 1020 and the 1500 – and results are available below. Any challenges or corrections by the end of Friday 18th May please.
The 2018 Imperial GR&P meeting, taking place on Melville Ranges, will be held from Wednesday the 18th July to Sunday the 22nd July.

There are unlimited medal entry matches, squadded trophy matches and team matches.
The format of the Imperial is slightly different to many GR meetings people may attend so we advise downloading the entry form and GR&P Handbook
The 2018 Scottish Gallery Rifle and Pistol Championships
The 2018 Scottish Gallery Rifle and Pistol Championship will be held over two weekends at two different venues. The event will commence on the 13-15th July at Joint Services Pistol Club’s Colmsliehill Range where a series of short events will be held and the Championship will conclude with the 1500 plus additional short events on the 11-12th August at Drums Links, home of Aberdeen Full Bore Gun Club. This registered event is open to all shooters.
A friendly “for honours” 1500 match held between Scotland and Visitors is proposed for the weekend at Drums for CF and SB teams. This match will be arranged and discussed further between Team Captains.
The sad news have just been received of the death of Fred Davis one of our long standing Gallery Rifle Range Officers who could most often be seen running ranges on Melville at the Bisley GRAWs and the Trafalgar and IHAM meetings – again at Bisley.
Fred took ill a couple of years ago so we have not seen him on the ranges for a little while. Here he can be seen on the right talking to Rob Tonner from Scotland with fellow Range Officer John Penn, in the background, running Melville Bay B at the 2015 Gallery Rifle National Championships.
Thoughts from all his fellow ROs and shooting colleagues go to his family – RIP Fred.
Fred’s funeral is on the 27th March at 10:15 at Eltham crematorium
