Why be bummed?

You can turn that around.  Get involved with a club closest to you and make it happen.  Rimfire BR may not be big in Canada at this time but with a bit of work that can be turned around.  Score matches are the easiest to hold.

Been there, done that Calvin. Believe me, it's not an easy task to get people involved in a type of shooting where you have to use ammo that now cost $28 a box (Tenex) to be competitive. We had good turnout in Quebec about 15 years ago. We were even shooting every IR 50/50 classes (Sporter, 10 1/2LB and 13 1/2LB). There are still many serious rimfire shooters around here but now centerfire benchrest is much more popular.

Rimfire benchrest in Canada ? You will be disappointed...

A few years ago, there was a group of shooters that used to hold 4-5 matches every summer. Now, they  hold only one rimfire  match a year (they shoot a four IR50/50 targets match). It's being held in July, in the Eastern Townships, about 1 1/2 hour from Montreal.

As far as I know, there is no formal competitions in Ontario or Vermont. In N.Y., there used to be matches in Salem but I don't know if the club is still active.

Thanks for your reply Steve,

I checked a few days ago with brflags.com (Graham style) and shipping to Canada with USPS for a pair of windflags was...$60US ! Before placing my order, I just wanted to make sure that there was no other source in Canada for windflags.

I need to make room in my office : I have about 175 issues of Precision Shooting magazine from 1994 to 2007, including special editions.  I would consider selling them as a lot or by year. PM me if interested.
