Atkins - who also added the AA double rise title and a Victorian open team selection to his stellar shooting career - said the club had again performed incredibly well.
“It really was a great showing,” he said.
“In tough conditions against some of the best shooters the country has to offer, we saw a lot of success both for individuals and teams that was also spread really well around the club.
“We also had a number of new shooters taking part which will hopefully be a huge benefit for the club in the future.”
Shooting prodigy Kiara Dean claimed first in the ladies 50 target double barrel, shooting a perfect 50 for 50, while Greg Hann claimed second place in C grade for the 50 target single barrel.
Hann also finished second in C grade for the 50 target pointscore event.
