It was a wonderful weekend with a little bit of fall in the air - especially in the morning as we drove up to Florenceville. It was cloudy and quite dark in the Hartland area and there was a prediction for rain but this did not materialize.Instead, the conditions were excellent for seeing the targets with even light and no bright sun. The wind was quite strong at times, and this was very noticeable in the "shallow bowl" shape of the Florenceville rimfire 50m range. The wind would swirl so that the flags gave very different readings depending on their location on the range.
It was a very enjoyable shoot with a good number of competitors present. Welcome to new-comers who clearly enjoyed both the shooting and the excellent lunch provided by Jean S. Thank you so very much Jean. Thanks also to Dorothy McC. for her wonderful chocolate chip cookies.
Jean S. was also the match director. The scoring was done by Ash P. and Greg S. while the whole group looked on. I think we might have been a little bit of a nuisance at times - sorry about that. But we were very eager to see the results of this hotly contested shoot. Greg R. was the Range Officer. Everyone went forward to change their own targets. Thanks to everyone for helping out!
The Open Class and Sporter Class targets were shot at the same time depending on the availability of a bench. Open Class consisted of 25 scoring rounds fired in 20 minutes - for 3 targets (HPS = 750/75X). Sporter Class consisted of 20 scoring rounds also fired in 20 minutes and also on 3 targets (HPS = 600/60X). As you can see below, some very nice targets were shot despite the tricky wind.
