Despite a freezing cold, with a biting wind chill and dark gloomy conditions all day, we still had another fantastic day of shooting at Melbourne Gun Club!
The morning kicked off with a full-house for Come & Try session, with every spot filled. A huge thank you to Jacqui and her amazing team for introducing another great group of people to our sport – your hard work is greatly appreciated.
A big thank you also goes to Kelly in the office for keeping everything running smoothly, Nathan and Riley for trapping all day, and Dean for lending a hand wherever it was needed. These events simply couldn’t happen without our helpers.

Congratulations to Ian Findlay, who took home the meat tray raffle! Unfortunately, the Joker stayed hidden this week, so the bonus 7 slabs of ammunition will jackpot again for another day.Thanks to everyone who braved the conditions and made it another enjoyable day at the club. We look forward to seeing you all back on the range again soon!
