2007 Victorian 3-Positional Championships
30 September 2007
SSAA Bendigo, Marong Rifle Range

SSAA Bendigo was the host branch for this year’s Victorian 3-Positional State Championships, which were run on the 30th of September at the Marong Rifle Range. Considering the testing conditions, some excellent scores were achieved, with many shooters rising to the occasion to record personal bests. The gale force winds that almost re-located the Range and necessitated search parties for some of the targets didn’t succeed in distracting the competitors, who kept their composure and steadfastly held position, patiently waiting for their best shots.

The Bendigo Branch thanks all those who took part, and congratulates the winners, who are listed below.
