The STS Gallery Rifle AMG organised the Scottish Gallery Rifle Championship 2025 from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th July at Joint Services Pistol Club.
The Scottish Championship is made up of 6 rifle events (TP1, MT and 1020 for Smallbore and Centrefire Rifle) for the Rifle Champion and 6 Revolver & Pistol events (TP1, MT and 1020 for LBP and LBR) for the LBR & LBR Champion. Grand Prix “points for position” scoring is used based on positions in the individual events and there are a total of 150 points available.
Many thanks to Scott Lyon and Jonny Cormie who organised the event, and to the many JSPC and other clubs; Aberdeen and Dundee, members who assisted. Special mention to Ian Burton who as well as competing over three days, spent time in the cabin completing the stats.
Competitors were mainly from Scotland, but we were pleased to see some familiar faces from Northumberland and a new visitor Ian Cox from Derby Club. Always good to welcome new guests.
The weather was variable as usual, with Saturday a particularly testing day with strong gusts but thankfully the rain held off for most of the weekend.
The standard of shooting was incredibly high with at least four GB squad members keeping the pressure on each other and raising the challenge to all competitors.
Congratulations to both Champions and all the individual event winners.
