A couple of changes from last year:
1. We will have practice targets available on the day prior to the Leadup (Wed 5th) at 500 yards and 1000 yards from 12:00 for zeroing. Range fee applies.
2. We will have time for blow off shots for a limited period at 7:00 am daily during the leadup and Kings
3. Weighing of rifles and trigger testing in the clubhouse. Times will be advised at a later date. No checking on the mound.

Entries and the full program will be available shortly after Christmas.

If you are travelling by ferry, there time to book is NOW. Extra sailings have been added to the schedule by SOT, early booking is really important if you are towing or over 2.1m high. Check out the sailing dates at Spirit of Tasmania Bookings.

The on-line entry form for the Tasmanian Rifle Association Match Rifle, Tiger Series and Kings Series is now open.

It is available here : TRA Kings 2025 Online Entry

I will have the manual entry and FAQ's documents uploaded later today.

There are a few changes from last year:

Our sponsorship from Priory Ridge Wines has come to an end with the sale of the business and retirement of our long time supporter David Llewellyn. Many thanks to David for his support.
The lead up series will be now known as the Tiger Cup. The program is unchanged and updated badges will be awarded as before. In addition, a new perpetual trophy is being created. It will be going to the winner irrespective of discipline on least points lost basis (details to come).
