Club Overview
We are now well into the summer season, and I am pleased to see we are active at both Wantage and Culham Ranges. We recently competed in the Imperial Gallery Rifle event at Bisley, our scores can be found at https://nra.org.uk/results/liveresults/.
Website
Olly has done a lot of work in creating our new website which is being updated on a regular basis. Scores are on the website in the members area accessed using password:

Branded Clothing
We are doing a second order on clothing. There are slightly different items on offer this time and as before you place the order via the online form by the 23rd of August. The order will be placed in the week of the 25th of August, and delivery is expected 4-6 weeks later, shortly after which you will be able to collect your items at the club range.
Once you have made your choices of garments you wish to order please make the appropriate payment to the club account.
Astor Team
No other team entered the Astor heats, so we are shooting as a team on Sat 9th August at Bisley. A big thanks to Gavin and Olly for making this happen.

Bisley Dates
I am conscious that we have not been shooting at Bisley on a regular basis. Personally, it has been an extremely busy year, and I have found it difficult to support these shoots. We are holding a meeting later this month to establish a way forward with this issue. Our aim is to set some dates for the remaining part of this year and look at creating a Bisley Calander for next year. If anyone would like to help setting up and organising our full-bore shoots, then please step forward and get in contact.
Social Event
We have been invited to see “The Moffatt Rifle Collection” along with a BBQ. This will take place on Sat 23rd August in Lambourne. The event will be entitled “Military Longarms into the Breechloading Era, and Trials Rifles that didn’t make it.” . Further details in due course but please let me know if you would like to attend so we have approximate numbers.
