It was a beautiful late spring day in New Brunswick, Canada, when just a handful of shooters came out to enjoy a centerfire match. Temperatures started around 13C early in the morning and, by the end of the day, it was a very nice 22C.
Although, early in the morning, the clouds that brought a lot of rain in the previous days still lingered, by the end of the first relay, these had disapeared and the remainder of the day stayed sunny. For some shooters this produced some glare and mirage around the targets but for the most part the sight picture was bright and clear.
The wind though was a bit of a headache starting out as a right to left wind predominantly at about 10-20km/hr. Over the course of the match it became switching right to left and the complete reverse with rarely a pause between. It was very difficult to predict and often switching while sighting before the shot was made.
Only one clean match was shot today with congrats going to Cecil H. with a score of 300/20X in open class.
