Marksman Success

CCF Field Day Y10

A very enjoyable and successful day at Longmoor Ranges on the 25m Barrack Range. This is the first time, in at least 8 years, that Shiplake College CCF have had enough suitably qualified staff to be able to run a  independent live fire range for the CCF and we hope that this is the first of many more. Over the course of the day, thirty six members of Year 10 CCF  shot 30 rounds each in a series of different range practices from grouping and zeroing to rapid and snap shoots, with most managing to score high enough to ‘pass’ as marksman and some even qualifying for a marksmanship badge.
