No, he won the Grand Aggregate. That's a separate event. The St George & the Queens are yet to be finalised

Quote from page 158 "The Queens Prize" by Susie Cornfield

"THE GRAND AGGREGATE, Among rifle shooters, this prize, introduced in 1873, is considered to be a greater test of skill than The Queens Prize, because it is awarded to the person who achieves the highest score in ten of the competitions held during the meeting"

"The winner........becomes distiguished with the initials G.C."

Onya Jimmy .. If you're reading this you'll remember I did say to you you're only shooting against a pack of poms !!!

ps Were you wearing your 'camo' pants and using that tactical looking rifle that everyone was whinging about in another thread only a while ago !! hmm ... =D>

Thanks for the link Mike, 150.30 in the Georges 11 is not a bad hit. Good to see an Aussie up there.
