Ray won the silver medal with Terry Wearen (DFST) finishing in third place to win the bronze medal.

Class B was won by Val Pierce (Rathdrum Rifle and Pistol Club) followed by Peter Daynes (RRPC) who won silver. Eva Greer (DURC) won class C, narrowly beating Sean Marnane (East Coast Shooting Club) who won silver and Rowan Austin (DURC) winning bronze. John Lancaster (Fingal Shooting Club) won gold in Class D, Patrick Lynch (DURC) took the silver medal and Jess Gorman (DURC) won bronze.

The 3-position event took place on Sunday with another exciting final to follow. After Raymond Kane was eliminated, winning the bronze medal, just 0.1 separated Sean Baldwin and Terry Wearen for the final shot of the event. Terry sealed the deal with a 10.5, winning the gold medal and title of 50m 3p National Champion with Sean Baldwin winning the silver medal.
