Toby Raincock

Toby has represented his country on a number of occasions. A product of Epsom College shooting and having been part of a winning Ashburton Team on three occasions, he first visited Canada with the Athelings in 1993, returning there 2 years later with England. Unfortunately, his chosen path of Mechanical Engineering at Nottingham University and Chartered Accountancy clashed for a while with competitive shooting, so it was not until 2002 that he returned to full-time shooting, winning the British Commonwealth Rifle Club meeting on his first competitive outing. He then embarked on a series of successful tours with GB to America, Canada, South Africa and Australia, including three victorious Palma matches. He has also participated in many Mackinnon, National and Kolapore Matches, although, sadly, the big 5 (Australia Match) still eludes. When not on the range, Toby has been known to swing the occasional golf club, although these days, his two young sons seem to occupy more of his non-shooting time. During the week and to earn some money to pay for his shooting tours, Toby is the CEO of Shard Capital Partners, a brokerage and asset management firm, based in the City.
