A superb individual long range marksmanship performance by Capt Matt Purdy RA, winning the Lovell trophy on top of all 4 long range aggregates at the @NRAofUK National Championships at Bisley. #BritishArmySport

Rank has no privilege in marksmanship. Capt Purdy holds his nerve to win the Lovell with all 5 tie shots in the 24” bull and 2 in the 14” central bull to score 25.2 against Brig Sturrock’s 24.2. Not bad in poor light at 1,000 yards with iron sights! #BritishArmySport
