JUNE 15, 2025 - PETITCODIAC - ANNUAL RIMFIRE TEAM SHOOT - RESULTS

Thanks to Volker T. for the result, write-up and pic.

Two club teams arrived at PSC for the annual 100yd Team Shoot -
Petitcodiac Sportsmen and Lake George. Unfortunately, the Minto Gun
Club did not participate this year. We missed them and hope they can
participate next year.

As usual, all shooters present were able to compete but only the top four
scores from each club formed the club team score, (indicated by asterix below).

The weather was nice with temperatures in the 20C-24C range for the
day, with relatively clear skies. The winds were light, but challenging for
this 100yd distance. Shooting 100yd is a different game as compared to the
usual 50yd benchrest matches. It always makes for an interesting and
challenging match.
 
As some shooters experienced, there were times when the wind dropped down,
but those calm spells did not always guarantee perfect shots.

PEOPLE TO THANK
Volker T. was match director and scorer with Dan G. verifying. Various other
members assisted with target setting and posting - thanks to all. Firing
line sweets were courtesy of Bruce B., Dale H. and Richard M - thanks
guys. Grant H. ensured that we would have a good lunch for the noon
break.Thanks also to the two range officers - Chris S. and John McC. 

In the end, it was a close match separating first from second, with only an 11x13
difference. This year, the bragging rights go to Team Petitcodiac with a total score 
of 1518x54 while Team Lake George scored 1507x41.

Congrats to the medal winners:
1st - John McC., 2nd - John M., 
and 3rd - Dale H.

JUNE 8, 2025 - MINTO CENTERFIRE BR - RESULTS

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.
