Well done Rod. It's been a long road from the days of a 22 BR and Garry Littles projectiles up there in Atherton. Those early days of FClass were a lot of fun.

I actually still shoot that same 22BR barrel sometimes, but yes, things are very different now. It is still fun playing and experimenting in club shoots, but much more serious at the big comps now.

Great stuff Rod, well done. Were you shooting the "homely" rifle you were letting us all use at the Missethon last year?

The Australian F Open Team (including Rod and 15 others) has just won the World Championship ahead of Canada. The Australian FTR (F Class with 308 win rifles on bi pods) team won the Silver just behind the USA. What a fantastic result for Australia. Culmination of 4 years planning and training.

Couldn't agree more Rob.
Was up following that this morning. Great effort and dedication from all the team members and officals. Was nice to see them get some sponsorship as well.
Well done all.
Cheers
