County Silver Medal Archive: Here are all the winners of the NSRA's County Silver Medal. This is awarded to the shooter with the highest average in any of the non-reserve teams in the County Prone Leagues who has not won it before. It confers the privilege of allowing entry to a special competition for such winners at the NSRA's National Meetings at Bisley and The Scottish each year. From 1966 to 2009 this award was based on the highest average in the shoulder-to-shoulder league. Prior to that, the basis for the award is not currently known, but it may have had something to do with the Association's outdoor league, which was last run in in 1963.
