QUEENS PRIZE MEETING 2013
Shooters from across the South West converged on Swanbourne Rifle Range over the long weekend of 26-30 September for the shooting of the WARA Queens Prize Meeting.

The South West was highly visible throughout the competition, with shooters taking out places in many of the individual matches. Major events saw South West competitors showing a strong presence.
