During the final proofing of this issue we were captivated by the exciting live coverage by Ultimate Ballistics (https://ultimateballistics.com) of the inaugural International Precision Rifle Federation (IPRF) World Championship from 6 to 12 August, held in Bitche, France. We bring readers a full report in our September issue of the performance of the twenty-one strong South African team, who competed against 25 other countries.

Using the Longshot system, you have a full gallery of features, saving time and money and creating an interactive component to range time like never before, all at your fingertips.

Longshot provides the shooter with real-time feedback from a high-resolution down range wireless camera sending live footage back to their phone or tablet from up to two miles away. The Longshot Target Camera System is very easy to use: ■ Put the camera at your target.…

There was not much to do on the farm, so when I saw my dad practicing with his Beretta 92, I instinctively asked him if I could try. After firing my first round at the target, I was hooked!” Things progressed rapidly from there. Jaco, Kaylin’s father, immediately got her involved at the Kraaifontein Shooting Club (KSC), where Kaylin was welcomed by young and old alike. Jaco says Kaylin started participating in static shooting events, but was intrigued by the dynamic…
