Bathurst Rifle Club Inc., 31st December 2022, L Williams Cup 500 yards.

          Saturday again provided some excellent weather for the second round of the L Williams Cup from 500 yards with the slight south to south easterly breeze continually stopping or swinging to come from the south west proving just enough to catch out those shooters not watching the mirage closely.

          Graeme Bright easily accounted for top spot in Target Rifle class with a consistent day’s scoring followed by Dennis Lavelle who improved considerably with his second stage score to stay ahead of John Coghill for the day.

          F Class shooter Geoff Willis learned from an early error to watch the mirage closely finishing with a possible second stage score to top the field although Col Howell looked the one to watch after a great first stage possible but unfortunately fell short with his second stage score. Auskir Berryman also started well to then fall back with his second stage score finishing just ahead of steady scoring by Mal Wright. Jeff Eppleston was next accounting for Phil Mahon by one super centre as they traded scores for the day with Dave Butler one point away finishing his second stage with a run of super centres leaving Graham Willis wondering why his second stage group had grown in size.

          Next Saturday 7^th January will be the final round of the L Williams Cup from 600 yards.
