At The Oxford Gun Company we’ve been teaching youngsters to shoot for many years.
One of our main concerns over the years is what we consider to be the over development of cartridges. The trend to develop increasingly fast cartridges has had two sides affect - more recoil and increased noise. We feel that both of these aren’t good for youngsters. With this in mind we’ve worked with Roger Hurley from Express to produce a cartridge with light recoil, which still kills well.
These cartridges are ideal to help minimise the effect of shooting on growing youngsters.
We’re proud to be using these cartridges at this year’s Schools Challenge.
We'd like to thank all the schools and individuals for attending this year.
We had over 160 entries from private and state schools all over the country.
The winners and full results are published on the
2008 Results Page
