AUGUST 20, 2023 - MINTO - RIMFIRE BR - RESULTS

Thanks to Dale H. for sending these results.

This Sunday was a combination of Quarterly Meeting and rimfire match for the Minto Gun Club. A good attendance of 20 members was noted at the meeting and Chairman David C. moved things along so that lots of time was available for the shoot.

The conditions for shooting were excellent and this was reflected in the excellent scores reported below.  All relays were favoured by good light and no glare or mirage. The rain held off for most of the match although one relay in the second half of the match did get a light and steady rain for about 10 minutes. Luckily, this was accompanied by totally still wind/no wind and many Xs were recorded. 

As a matter of fact, the wind today was generally benign with light or no winds for most of the match. It was predominantly left to right although some switching wind was observed. The temperature started at about 16C and ended in the afternoon at about 23C. It was a little humid but not as bad as we have experienced lately.  All-in-all it was a wonderful New Brunswick summer day and everyone enjoyed themselves.

Congratulations are due to a good number of shooters who shot clean target sheets at this match. In Open Class Volker T. shot 400/20X, David C. shot 19X, Dale H. shot 16X, Barb J. shot 14X and Gerald D. shot 11X. In Sporter Class, Wayne LeB. shot a 400/22X. Congrats to all.

Before the awards for this shoot were handed out, a Petitcodiac 300 Club Badge was awarded to Guy H. by Dan G. This had been over looked in the past when Guy had shot a clean centerfire match back in August 2021. Congrats Guy!

Many people lent a hand to make today's match an enjoyable one - many thanks!
