JUNE 24, 2018 - PETITCODIAC CENTERFIRE SHOOT - RESULTS

It was a busy weekend for those who had attended the Smallbore Team shoot in Lake George the previous day, (but we are always up for a good shoot with friends). We
travelled to Petitcodiac this time for the centerfire match.

Conditions were next to perfect with only a little wind from time to time. The temperature remained very nice for shirt-sleeve shooting. There had been a forecast for lots of rain and, aside from a bit of wet 
very early in the day, the rain held off during the entire match.

The match director was Volker T. He was also the scorer and Daniel G. was the score verifier. Targets were set and changed by Tony L., John McC., Mike C., Malcolm McA.
and Bert deV. The ROs were Daniel G., Darryl K., and Bert deV. The treats came from Tony L. who brought Shelly's squares and Daniel G. who brought Timbits. The photographer was Darryl K. Thank you all for helping to make this a very enjoyable shoot.

The conditions were such that some very good scores were recorded. Congratulations to John McC. who shot a 300/23X; Daniel G. who shot a 300/17X and to Volker T. who shot a 300/15X.

JUNE 23, 2018 - LAKE GEORGE - SMALLBORE TEAM SHOOT - RESULTS

The annual 22Rimfire 100yd Team Shoot was held last Saturday at the Lake George Ranges. Shooters from Minto and Petitcodiac thank the Lake George Gun Club for hosting this event with a big "Thank you" to Bruce B. for organizing this match. All present had a very good time.
The weather was very good for this shoot. Temperatures hovered around 23C. The winds were generally mild at 
12km/hr with occasional gusts to 20km/hr. Sometimes there was a complete lull in the wind and shooters took full advantage of these opportunities.

Bruce B. was the match director and did an excellent job of running the match. John 
M. was the head chef and prepared a wonderful lunch. Volker T. was the scorer with Dave C. verifying the scores and stats. Many thanks to those who helped out by serving as Range Officers and target changers.

Although shooting smallbore at 100yds is difficult, especially in the wind, some very good scores were shot today. Congratulations to John M. who shot the high score of 388/15X today, Volker T. who shot the second highest score of 387/17X, and to Guy H. who shot the third highest score of 387/15X
Lake George and Minto shooters congratulate the team from Petitcodiac for their win today. Team Petitcodiac scored 1519/40X. Second came Team Minto with 1506/50X and third came Team Lake George with 1489/37X.

JUNE 16, 2018 - FLORENCEVILLE - 200m CENTERFIRE BR - RESULTS

After the Rimfire BR shoot, and the lunch was finished, five shooters went to the 200m range for the Centerfire BR or Prone shoot. There were no prone shooters today so these results are for BR competition.

The sun stayed out all afternoon and without shade, we all looked a little red by the end of the shoot. There was a fairly steady wind at the upper end of the range. As there were no flags on the lower end, we really didn't know the wind conditions there.

The match directors were Jean S. and Greg S. while the range officers were Greg S. and Ted S. All shooters contributed to the scoring and the statistics. We also all took turns to change targets with Greg S. in his truck (it was too hot to walk today).


RESULTS - CENTERFIRE BR - 200m:
Bert deV. - 97.3X + 93.2X + 94.2X = 284.7X
John McC. - 90.1X + 93.2X + 90.1X = 273.4X
Greg S. - 83.1X + 89.2X + 97.2X = 269.5X
Mike C. - 78.0X + 83.0X + 86.1X = 247.1X
Ted S. - 75.0X + 57.0X + 80.0X = 212.0X


JUNE 16, 2018 - FLORENCEVILLE - RIMFIRE BR - RESULTS

It was a wonderful day to go to the Florenceville ranges for a day of shooting and renewing friendships. The sun was out all day with a few clouds to give a little shade. The day started out at 9:00am with little or no wind but this did not last as the 50m range is notorious for very tricky winds that change quickly and that are not the same for one side of the range as compared to the other. 
The match director today was Jean S. who did an excellent
job of organising the match and the many shooters who came out for both Open and Sporter Classes. The scorers were Greg S. and Ted S. All the shooters went forward to change their own targets. Alan C. was the RO throughout the entire match. Photographers were Alan C., Ash P., John McC., and Bert deV. Many thanks to all for helping today.
After the Rimfire shoot was completed, Jean S. and Raymond G. had prepared a very nice lunch of hot-dogs, potato salad, coleslaw and watermelon. We were famished and bone dry so this was very welcome indeed. Many thanks Jean!
After the lunch the medals were awarded. The trophies made and donated by John McC. were also presented to the winners from last year who were present today. Then some went home while others went to the 200m range for the centerfire match.
