The conditions were 10 shots at 300 yards (small inner) any position. The following are the highest scores: —
300 yds. Hep. Tl. Gunner North 35 2 37 Gunner John Hill ... 30 6 35 Gunner Stevens 29 6 35 Gunner Gibson 27 7 34 P.O. Waugh 33 — 33 Gunner Silverton ... 27 6 33 Gunner Beckingham 32 — 32 Gunner Cameron 30 2 32 Gunner Ben Hill 26 6 32 P.O. Simpson 26 6 32
