Top Shots

Cadets qualifying to shoot at Bisley and Purbright competitions are amongst the best in the Country. There are several events for individuals and teams. The annual highlight is the Inter Service Cadet Rifle Meeting (ISCRM), a target shooting competition where Air Cadets (ATC) get to compete against members of the ACF (Army Cadet Force) and SCC (Sea Cadet Corps). There are also a number of other National and International target shooting competitions held each year.

The Cadet Inter-Service Skill At Arms Meeting (ISCRM) takes place annually on the ranges at Purbright. Like the rifle meeting at Bisley it is a top level competition for teams and individuals. Matches are fired with L98A1 rifle on long ranges including some with electrically operated targets some of which are designed to fall down when they are hit.

All Air Cadets have the opportunity to take part in competative target shooting. As well as the national events there are also numerous competitions arranged at Wing level.

There are further competetive events available to ACO members including a postal competition arranged by the RAF (Reserve Forces) Small Arms Association (RAF(RF)SAA) which enables those who are unable to travel to still compete with other throughout the country.
