AUGUST 12, 2018 - MINTO CENTERFIRE BR - RESULTS

Well, August is progressing well with nice temperatures, lots of sun and hardly any wind at the centerfire shoot in Minto.
The day started out with temperatures under 20C at the start of the day. It did get
warmer and by the afternoon it was quite hot. The humidity also rose so that shooting for some was a perspiring event. Good thing some had a towel at the ready. It stayed largely cloudless throughout the day and it was nice to have the sun out. As mentioned above, the 
wind was very light although quite tricky. Sometimes the wind flags in one part of the range were totally quiet while others were active. A number of shooters experienced "head-scratchers" - shots that should have landed in the 10 ring but inexplicably popped out. Often there was the theory that there was something going on - maybe a scope problem, maybe a load issue - but in reality it was probably the wind conditions that played with our minds.
Congrats to Bert deV. for shooting a 300/18X today.
Today, John McC. was the match director while Don M. was the head scorer. Norbert S. and Volker T. verified the scores and calculations. The Range Officers were Bruce B.,
Bill H. and John McC. Targets were set and changed by John McC., Bert deV., Bruce B. and Volker T. We all enjoyed the squares that Shelly C. had made and Tony L. brought to the match. Thanks everyone for your help today.
Today we also presented Bill H. with his 400 Club Badge as he shoot a perfect target at our last Rimfire match - his first! Congrats again Bill.
