Miniature Rifles

Miniature Rifles

The miniature rifles team appears this year to be quite strong, though perhaps not so strong as the team which gave C.U.C. such a fright last year. However, the range, the climate and the Waitemata being to their liking, they are again expected to finish only a few glasses behind the leaders.

The team will be:—

Brian Brad burn: Back for the fifth time (sucker for punishment). Has not been shooting particularly well until just recently, when he commenced to train on Vodka—is now shooting in fine spirits.

Jim Mansell: Back for the third time. Jim's experience should be invaluable to the team. He trains on Rifle oil and Carrots.

Ian Chatwin: is capable of drinking any opposing teams under the table and shoots best from that position. Ian is expected to turn on some spectacular performances this year.

Brian Frankpitt: For the past three years Brian has been the person who has missed out on a place in the team. Now. with his own rifle, he will be a hard man to beat.

Ian Newton: A newcomer to Winter Tournaments, Ian is already well known (notoriously, in fact!) as a Fullbore Rifle shot. It is hoped that he will be equally as effective in the Smallbore field.

Graeme Barnard: Will drink anything, anytime, anywhere in almost limitless quantities, then shoots at his best after having done so. His experience will do much to strengthen the team.
