PSC CF Team Shoots

Date: May 04, 2025

Thanks to Darryl K. and Danny G. for these results, pics and write-up.

This year, two teams competed for the coveted CF TEAM Trophy: The Minto Gun Club and The Petitcodiac Sportsmen’s Club. Congratulations go to Team Petitcodiac for a very fine win!

Attendance was a bit lower than expected for the annual Centerfire Team shoot in Petitcodiac. Eleven shooters did participate in rainy but not unbearable conditions and shot some pretty decent scores.   After a little reorganization to distribute shooters a bit more equitably, we started the first relay and continued through the first two before breaking for lunch.   Returning from the Clubhouse after a 45 minute break we shot the third and last target.

Then we returned to the Clubhouse for the awards presentations.  Congrats are due to the top three individual shooters today. Don M. with a score of 300/24X;  Malcolm McA. – 300/19X; John McC. – 300/16X.  Additionally congrats are due to Tony L. who, after so many shots downrange, earned his 300 CF Club badge today.

Danny G., as match director, would like to thank everyone who helped out as well – (which was everyone). We couldn’t pull it off without your help –  seriously!

Centerfire BR Shoot

There were only six combatants at today’s Easter Sunday Centerfire match in Petitcodiac.  Considering the holiday and the weather we were lucky to see anyone!  It was mostly sunny but the real story of conditions was that the wind was horrendous.  It was very strong and never travelled in the same direction for longer than a couple of seconds.  Still we had good fun and, although there were some disappointments, the good shots were awesome. A very interesting day!

PEOPLE TO THANK:
Danny G. was the match director and scorer with John McC. acting as score verifier. Everyone else chipped in where needed to chase wind swept targets and right-tipped target frames.

The weather was miserable en route to and at the range. The temperature ranged from -1 to +3C with overcast skies and cold rain present most of the time. Winds of 10-30km/hr were mostly from the south. There were some calm periods that shooters tried to take advantage of before it disappeared. All in all, scores were close and quite good. Congrats to Dale H. who shot a clean match with a score of 500/12X.

Thanks to Darryl K. for the pics and to Volker T. for the results and the report.

The weather started out with 2C temps and light rain. It soon dropped to -2C and snow flurries as the first relay made ready to shoot. Winds were light to moderate from the SW. There was, at times, uneven wind between sides of the range – not always a bonus.

One 500 score with a good handful of X’s was shot – congrats Bruce B. The turnout was good with all happy to participate in the match. A good match.
Both heaters were running to provide some warmth.

PEOPLE TO THANK:
Chris S. as Scorer, Grant H. as Verifier, Chris S. and Dan G. on Targets, John McC. and Dan G. as RO’s, and Dan G. and Bruce B. for the sweets..

PSC .22 RF BR Shoot

Date: February 23, 2025

Today a handful of shooters arrived for the first shooting match in Petitcodiac of 2025.
It was a small group similar to last year’s turnout, but we had fun.

The sky was overcast for most of the time and temps ran from -9C to -1C, with a light breeze blowing off and on – mostly from the west. With only a pair of windflags courtesy of Grant H., a lot of eyes were on them, but occasionally, some shooters missed the ten ring. We all tried, but no perfect score; scores were actually quite good.

Thanks to Chris S. and Grant H. for scoring, verifying targets, and for their work setting up the target stands and target changing duty. Chris S. was the Range officer. Photography by Darryl K.

Volker brought the Tim’s do-nuts which all enjoyed.
