50m Denwood Competitions 2024

Saddle up, boys - it's shootin' time!

27/4/24.  Some in, one out.  The fine fellows that are Bill, Jim and Malcolm shot their first rounds with the standout being Jim and his 10/10 although Erni's nine denied him the top spot.

Dedicated springer man Norrie proves he's in it to win it - another ten from him.  Hope he got his round of applause this time.

It's not all sweetness and light though as Steve L had a setback due to an unfamiliarity with the rules and accounting errors.  Although he's been right on the money shooting-wise, his two scores so far have been quietly swept under the carpet.

He's more than welcome to make up the two rounds he'd previously shot in a single session if he likes though and, with his BenchRest and HFT experience, I suspect he'll be a serious contender.

20/4/24.  The 2nd round Springer scores are in for Erni and Norrie and they're good - a consistent eight for Erni while Norrie shot the season's first ten. 

Keep up the good work guys.

PCP-wise, Steve L and his Daystate Pulsar joined in the fun for the first time.  More of a Waulkmill Warrior than a Denwood Denizen, his seven was a good start and we hope to see him at Denwood more often.

13/4/24.  Norrie enters the fray with a very nice nine and overtakes Erni for the lead.  Early days but I suspect this is going to be closely fought.

6/4/24.  As it so often happens, Life got in the way of shooting for Norrie and Erni was champing at the bit to get going so the Springer comp is now underway with a very respectable 8.

Last year's PCP champion Erni has started the PCP comp with a robust 9 and I have it on good authority that Norrie will get the Springer side of things moving on Wednesday.

Same rules as last year - any rifle, calibre and sight*, shoot sitting and rested with 10 shots per round and 10 rounds over the course of the year.  Full rules are in the sidebar on the left.

It's free to enter and there'll be prizes at the end.

Join in and have a go - what's the worst that could happen?
