2010 National Hunter Class Championships
10-13 September 2010

This competition, as opposed to traditional benchrest group shooting matches, is about hitting consecutive bullseyes around a target. While competitor numbers were slightly below expectations, the top shooters were there and showed just how to hit those centres time after time.
There were many fine and accomplished shooters on the range, and the sportsmanship was first-class; however, all would agree that the performances of Murray Hicks were a revelation, with him winning two of the four classes and running second in the other two. He captured both Rimfire and Centrefire 2-Gun titles, as well as the 4-Gun crown. Thanks to all for a very enjoyable weekend.
