Try the Gemini Days

Instead of the usual fixed date for the next Try the Gemini, we thought we would ask anyone who is interested in trying the Gemini, to please contact HPS on 01452 729 888 or info@hps-tr.com and we will try to make arrangements to meet up with you at Bisley.

See our Photo Gallery for photos from previous Try the Gemini days.

Happy Customers
I just received the following from Jim Bailey, following his win at the two day Australia Day competition at Malabar over the weekend of January 23rd/24th:- "Very happy Mike, I won both days as well as the grand. shot 3,5,6,6,6,7,800m on the icfra target for 348.41/350. Conditions were a little tricky which accounted for the two fours at the 1st 600m. Stock recoils very nicely and I'm getting there with my general position."  Jim took delivery of his TR702 stock just before the end of 2009.

On Monday 7th September 2009 I purchased on behalf of the Greater Manchester Police (GMP) Rifle Shooting Team, 200 rounds (new) of HPS 155 grain ammunition from the NSRA at Bisley at a cost of £150.00 to compete in the National Police Rifle Shooting Championships. I am pleased to inform you that we WON the 'Short Range' team championships followed closely by Devon & Cornwall Constabulary. You may use this information for your website if you so desire. We will endeavour to purchase more of your ammunition in the future.
Cheers, John Hanton, Hon Sec. GMP Rifle Club.
Dear HPS,
Many thanks for your excellent service - and product. Exactly what I wanted. I wish some other companies would take a page out of your book. I look forward to doing business with you again. Best wishes. (UK Customer)
You will be pleased to hear your ammo works very well through the BLASER rifle. I finished second in a two day event at Bisley on 2 & 3 April 2009. Only chap who beat me, was from the Dorset Police, with his RPA & HPS 175 gr ammo! Thanks very much for the excellent quality of your product, it really makes the difference!

Dear HPS,
Just wanted to thank you for the Weaver scope rail you altered to my drawing and which I received today. The work has been done to a high standard. I am very pleased with the steel rail and it now fits my rifle exactly. Many thanks for your time and advice.

Just a quick note of thanks. I have just had my first chance to use the batch of machine loaded .308 1F ammunition. For the excellent adjustment made to my Southern Gun AR10 rifle by Rob a few weeks ago, having had 5 years of strife, fixed in 5 minutes! Worked beautifully. The excellent ammo, which despite being your cheapest, was quite excellent in consistency and ease of use. Really appreciate your help and products. Regards. (UK Customer)

Dear John,
I thought I would drop you a quick email to say thank you for the quality of your once fired .308 Match King ammunition.

I competed in the South West & UK Police Championships over two days at Yoxter on Wednesday & Thursday, I managed a 'so-so' score of 145.14 on Wednesday but excelled myself on Thursday with a 150.25 to win the UK Police Championship Aggregate as well as the South West Championship. I used the same rifle as in Canada last year, i.e. a Swing MK5 with a 1:13 Krieger barrel.

Please pass on my thanks to my Steve Jelf for the quality of the reloads, I shall certainly be ordering some more in the near future.

Very best regards,

Brian Cambray
UK Police, Devon, England & GB Veteran's

I have just had confirmation, that the parcel has arrived. EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Thank you very much.

I will endeavour to use your services again, and recommend you to fellow shooters.

Received the Trakker sight and iris today - thanks a lot for the speedy shipping!

Sally Johnston, New Zealand - Winner with System Gemini
Sally used her trusty Gemini Ultra to good effect at the 2009 Oceania Shooting Federation ISSF Continental Championships in Sydney.
Silver - 50m Rifle Prone Women's Grand Prix,
Gold - Commonwealth Games MQS - 50m Rifle 3 Positions 3 x 20 Grand Prix,
Silver - 50m Rifle Prone Women New Zealand Challenge Grand Prix.
Sally is a long time member of the New Zealand High Performance squad having won her first Commonwealth Games Bronze in Malaysia in 1998. Since then she has represented New Zealand with distinction at World Cup matches and other Commonwealth Games.

Her efforts in Sydney will almost certainly secure her selection to represent New Zealand in India in 2010. She may possibly be the only New Zealand representative in the rifle disciplines since no other High Performance squad athlete has attained an MQS at an International event.
 
Congratulations Sally from all of us at HPS! And good shooting in 2010!
