What was the course of fire? Not sure on max available points looking at the results. Feel for Russ missing out by such a small margin though!

Martin Townsend top GB shooter in F Open?! Wow!

Just goes to show that you don't have to spend a fortune on kit (I believe he is borrowing a rifle) and that experience counts for much much more. Martin is a TR/MR shooter who is the team coach but all the coaches have to shoot the individual champs to be eligible for the team matches.

Well done Martin! clapclap

He might be borrowing a very expensive rifle!

I think he probably is but I would still put his success down to his wind reading skills ;)

Rox, that is all I could find as well. Information from Raton has been patchy at best which is disappointing as there are undoubtedly many people from many countries waiting for updates on these matches.

If I'm interpreting the SMS I just received correctly:

GB F/TR Team 3rd place.

GB F Open Team 4th place.

Well done to all. Taking-on the Americans at home is a huge challenge; I'm sure everyone has given it everything, done us proud, and will come back stronger as a result.

I'm sure the GB team will be disappointed but well done to all!

Do we know who won what as USA were leading one and Australia the other after day 1?
