Shuttleworth College Visit A Different Calibre

Shuttleworth College visit us



Level 3 Countryside students enjoyed a “behind the scenes” tour at A Different Calibre, Letchworth, courtesy of former Shuttleworth College countryside student of the year, Stuart Manley.
They learnt about firearms legislation, gun licensing and firearm safety before handling a variety of air rifles, shotguns and hand guns – linking them to the appropriate uses in the game management module being studied e.g. control of pest & predators.

The students then visited the shop to discuss and compare the various types of ammunition used in the different firearms and then headed off to the range. This is a very light and airy venue with ample space and target types/distances for all of them to take aim and practice handling and using some of the air rifles and hand guns.


Many found it addictive, even if never having tried it before, so the morning soon passed and we were all heading back to college in time for lunch.
We hope to return soon to improve our aim and challenge ourselves further.
