Alasdair Horne is to be congratulated on winning both the indoor and outdoor individual competitions.  It helps to have the top man in your team!

This is the first time these matches have been held for some years, and it is hoped more Regions will compete in future events as this All-Ranges meeting  is now expected to be run annually and to become a fixture in the Scottish shooting calendar on the cusp of the change from the winter indoor season to the summer(!) outdoor shooting.
