The new National 25 yard prone rifle champion is Ray Reilly of Rathdrum Rifle and Pistol Club and DURC. Ray went into the final in second place; two points behind Sandy Wilson of East Coast Shooting Club and overtook him on his seventh shot. Conor McDermottroe of DURC who started in fifth position overall was equally impressive in overcoming a two point deficit to take third place.
Turnout for the championship was the highest in recent years and scores were very good indeed with only eleven points separating the seven finalists. Special mention must be made of Richard Stapleton of Wilkinstown who couldn't be present for the final and had tied with Sandy Wilson in first place in the qualifying round.
The team of three shield was won by the Rathdrum team of Ray Reilly, Michael Madigan and Nick West who just pipped the DURC team by three points.
