2017 SSAA NSW Benchrest Centrefire 4-Gun State Championships

The SSAA Coffs Harbour Branch held the 2017 SSAA NSW Benchrest Centrefire 4-Gun State Championships at the Dairyville Range from July 13 to 16. There were a total of 64 shooters over the four days. The weather was very cold and windy but only one day actually brought some rain. A spit roast for competitors and helpers on the Saturday evening went off really well. As usual there was good feedback from all shooters on the way Coffs Harbour runs these Championship shoots. The new reloading shed was used for the first time and everyone felt it had made a great improvement to competitors’ comfort.
