C&G slaughter everyone
On the morning of Saturday the first of March, the massed ranks of ICRPC mat to compete for the Courtman Shield at Bisley. This is an annual rifle competition held between the constituent colleges of IC. The morning was spent shooting full-bore rifles at three hundred yards at targets with a V-bull of three and three quarter inches in diameter. By the end of this, C&G had taken an early lead, closely followed by RCS and RSM.
The afternoon saw shooting at five-hundred yards. Here C&G’s star shot, Andrew, decided that our Spanish army surplus ammo was not good enough for his rifle and switched to his hand loaded, radar guided rounds, each of which cost Ł44.99 and is lovingly polished on the inner thigh of Belinda the Beautiful Bisley Butt marker. He then proceeded to score 34.4 out of 35.7. He was said to be disappointed at dropping one but this performance still guaranteed C&G victory thanks also to sterling efforts from Rupert Ingham and Lawrence von Gould. The exact placing were 1st C&G 185.8; 2nd RSM 173.0; 3rd RCS 171.4.
