With National Shooting Week 2014 on the horizon (24-31 May), and in the run up to the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow this year, the public are being encouraged to try something new and turn their hand to shooting.
The week has been organised by the Countryside Alliance with the support of the British Shooting Sports Council, and will be the seventh successful event of its kind, with up to 60 shooting grounds nation-wide taking part. NSW aims to enable new-comers to try it out and hopefully stay on as part of the sport.
