FEBRUARY 22, 2015 - PETITCODIAC - CENTERFIRE BR - RESULTS

Well, we finally had our alternate date shoot under way after the

last storm cancellation. Although it did snow today too, a dozen shooters made it through the snowy roads onto the range. And the shoot earned a term of endearment as the ‘Woosie’ shoot. This was as a result of John McC’s friendly tease of shooters deciding to cancel the last shoot due to the ‘little’ blizzard we had encountered.

Along with moderate temps of -2C and light winds, and overcast skies, it was a good shoot. No 300’s shot, but Ron M. had his 308Win humming and was very close - next time, Ron. 

Thanks to John McC, Ron M., Tom N., and Dan G. who undertook snow removal from the last storm event so the range was accessible to the shooters. Thanks for the sweets, Shelly; they were tasty, as always. And as usual, shooters pitched in to be RO and do target setting. Thanks.

Your match Director, Volker…………reminding you to ”keep that trigger finger in tune”.

FEBRUARY 8, 2015 - PETITCODIAC - 22 RIMFIRE BR - RESULTS

Thanks to Volker T. for sending 

these results and to Darryl K. 

for sending the pictures.

"Considering the frigid temperatures today we had a good attendance with fourteen shooters and a new club member, Joe E., who came to observe and check out the equipment before he takes the plunge into the addictive world of 22BR shooting. The low was around -14, and sure did not change much inside the shooting hut. The stove helped to thaw out the shooters after each relay. 

The match went well, save for a couple of equipment issues that caused one shooter to cancel, and difficulties to a couple others with their optics, and trigger systems - (yes, my trigger was loose!)

Thanks to Mrs. John McC., Shelly C., and Dan G. for the sweets. No problems making them disappear. Appreciation also for a great job to Tom N., Dan G. and Wayne B., for attending to the snow removal of the club facilities so we could hold a match - we now have had over a meter of snowfall this winter!

Volker T., Your Match Director, wishing you all keep your trigger finger in tune.

FEBRUARY 7, 2015 - LAKE GEORGE - .22 RIMFIRE BR - RESULTS

Thanks to Terry McN. for sending this match report and to  Barb J. for sending the pictures.

"We had eleven brave souls turn out for the shoot today at Lake George Gun Club despite a -20c start. With a warm clubhouse, thanks to Bruce B. and some cleaning of ice from the benches by Carl J., George M. and Cecil H. we got things underway. As the sun came up the temperature did as well but, as we all know, the evil wind came with it which played havoc with the shooters patience.

Inside the clubhouse things were cooking with hot coffee, hot dogs and, of course, Barb J.'s delicious gumdrop cake.

The top shooters in Open Class were Cecil H. with 400/19X - congratulations - he is listed again in the LGGC Perfect targets shot. Carl J., with 399/8X came in second. 
In Sporter Class, Wayne K. placed first with 281/13X and Bruce B. was second with 266/10X.

25-01-2015 MINTO CENTERFIRE SHOOT RESULTS

Despite the horrible weather the Centerfire Shoot in Minto went ahead with only the most tough and hardy shooters attending. Yes . . . wait for it . . . there was one shooter - President Wayne K. shot the match by himself and did very well indeed!

Wayne sent this report:

"I was the only shooter that showed up. Unofficially I did shoot the required amount of targets and in the 1^st target shot a 48/2X. In the 2^nd target a  50/2X while in the 3^rd target 50/3X. Too bad they don’t count. I still had fun."  

Wayne says that we are going to decide at the next CF shoot if we are going to have a make up shoot later on.

Remember, the honor is not to win a gold medal but to be able to participate.
