JUNE 28, 2015 - MINTO - .22 BR SHOOT - RESULTS

This month's 22BR shoot in Minto was very well attended with 16 shooters shooting both Open and Sporter Classes. Prior to the match, we voted Dave C. to be the Range Maintenance Chairman in preparation for the building of the new club house and improvements to the parking and pistol shooting area. Thanks for taking on this task Dave - the range is going to be beautiful.


The weather today was more than excellent for a 22 shoot. Temperatures were a very comfortable +/- 20C and the sky remained overcast with a hint of rain later in the day. Easy to see the targets! The air was a bit heavy and muggy but for some reason the blackflies and mosquitos stayed away. 
The most unusual thing for Minto, was that there was almost no wind - only the slightest of whispers now and then. Once in a while we were puzzled by a bullet dropping down on the target but it seems that there might have been a slight headwind at the target level now and then. This was hard to pick up as the wind indicators were all positioned below the targets.
At any rate, shooters stepped up to take advantage of the conditions and 4 perfect targets were shot in the first set of relays. In the second set, two 400 targets had been shot by the winners of last weeks match in Petitcodiac. Congratulations to John McC. who shot a 400/17X and Guy H. who shot a 400/10X - members of the Minto 400 club.
