Henrik Sanglen of Sweden
and System Gemini |
| I started shooting air rifle and full-bore
(national events) at the tender age of 9. Since then I have
tried most of the rifle-disciplines (both national and international
programs) and over the years I have come to focus in on the
small-bore prone-event. I like the complexity of the discipline
and the way you need to master both your mind and body as
well as the equipment. Having an engineering-background, I
definitely enjoy tuning the equipment, making sure that I
get the absolute optimum of what is possible. |
|
This is where the product-range of
HPS comes in. I have tried and tested a wide range of equipment
over the years and I have come to the conclusion that you
cant beat true quality and precision-making in a sport where
success is measured in mm. The HPS-product range gives me
the possibility to adjust my position towards that optimum
feeling and I can always rely on my settings remaining constant
without moving or failing. Prone specialists tend to custom-adjust
most of their equipment, and in that sense I am no different.
The HPS-products does however form a stable platform on which
to build my position and with the companies ability to fit
almost any barrel/action into their System Gemini FR703-stock
(I use a Bleiker Challenger) I would expect more FR703-fitted
rifles to appear on the international shooting-ranges over
the years to come. As for my own shooting-career only time
will tell, but obviously my goals are high and my hope is
to be able to establish myself as a consistent shooter on
the European shooting-ranges.
Best Regards,
Henrik Sanglén, Kviberg Shooting-Club, Sweden. |

HPS Target Rifle Ammunition
- Simply the Best! |
HPS Target Master .308 Win Sierra
155 grain ammunition in new and disposable cases is available
from the Lord Roberts Centre (NSRA shop) on Bisley Camp.
Dear HPS,
We have now been back for a couple of weeks and I realise
that I have yet to contact you to say what a successful
tour it was. We won both international matches, thereby
I think setting a precedent. In addition, the South African
championship was won by Parag Patel and the State President's
Prize by David Dyson. All in all, pretty much a clean sweep
and credit to the team for their hard work and professionalism.
Credit also to HPS - our ammunition supplier! Two of our
team members beat the previous (David Calvert's) South African
Grand Aggregate record of 10 points dropped. Nigel Ball
dropped 8 and Parag only 5, both using HPS machine loaded
ammunition! It was also interesting to see how well the
ammo went in the team matches - our V counts were much better,
and our biggest margin of victory came at 300m.
All results on www.gbrt2008.co.uk.
Please pass on our thanks to all concerned.
Regards, Steven Thomas, Captain GBRT to South Africa 2008

A Happy Customer! |
I just wanted to thank all your team
at HPS for your help and support with my new TR702
rifle and FR703 stock for my Anschutz. I
have shot the full-bore at Bisley and after about 8 shots,
the group settled down to under a minute’s grouping
at 300m and it shot beautifully after that (aside from the
feel and balance which were stunning from the start). I have
a couple of big competitions coming up soon and am really
looking forward to them with my new rifle.
Also, I sat down the other evening with my FR703
stock on my Anschutz and three of the best cards I’ve
ever shot, back to back with one possible and a second iffy
possible, but still lovely grouping. Again, the balance of
the rifle makes the weight disappear when you are shooting
it and it is just lovely to shoot with. I really am thrilled
with it and have got a lot of competitions over the coming
weeks to show what we can do with it. It’s a great bit
of kit, both to use and to look at (it has a good few admirers
at the club). Added to that, two days ago I took second in
Bucks in the County open and won my class. Result!
I’ll pop in over the Imperial if I don’t speak
to you before, but once again, thank you.

Another Happy Customer! |
The two Gemini
stocks are fine. There is a lot of tinkering to make them
fit, but fit they do. I was shooting 600 metres yesterday
and let out butt 1/4" and changed the butt plate angle.
Voila! 75-12v. The recoil is different and has quite a tight
circle which pleases me. The recoil circle was larger with
my wood stocks. The Quadlock actions are on metal and shoot
as good as or better than the wood stocks. The wood stocks
had 1/2 thou bedding deflection so this speaks well of the
new stock. I am saving up my money for another Gemini
this fall... Regards
