Thanks Bill. I don't recognize these names. Any idea when this was, and do they still shoot?

Sunday July 31 the Rifle Division held the second Rim Fire Bench Rest match of 2011. Shooters competed for bragging rights on a hot breezy day. This was the first match for the new Semi – Auto class which was created to increase awards and to enhance the fairness of the competition.
 
  We had 13 individual shooters but Bill Gabryluk entered in both the Bolt Action class and the Semi-auto class and shot on 2 relays all day.
 
Bolt Action Class
(1)     Phil Nick 743 29x a new range record (Cooper TRP3, Harrell’s tuner, Weaver 36X, RWS)
(2)     Dwayne Cyr 727 17x (CZ452 Varmint, Sightron 36X, SK Rifle Match)
(3)     Matt Cyr 719 15x (CZ452 Varmint, Bushnell 18X, SK Rifle Match)
 
Semi Auto Class
(1)     Al Cardinal 712 6x (1022, SK Std+)
(2)     Ken Chambers 701 17x (1022, SK Std+)
(3)     Bill Gabryluk 670 6x (1022, Eley)
                                                                                                                                          
 Thanks again to the Rifle shooters who came out to support the Club and thank you to the volunteers who helped run the match.

I think the Worlds are in Sydney Australia in 2013. Hope to see you then if I have the good fortune to be on Canada's team at that time!

Take note the Heavy Varmint and Unlimited (5-shot) match is coming up on July 16/17. We will run HV/Unl 100 on Saturday and Unl/HV 200 on Sunday.

We could use someone to help with the target running. The requirement is for 1 or 2 people. The nature of the work is hanging targets and retrieving targets from the 100 and 200 yards target frames between relays. We would need you from about 8am to about 4pm each day. We pay $100/day/person. Interested parties should PM me or e-mail rickpollock@shaw.ca

Thanks,

Rick

Practice day is complete. Pretty hot 32C and humid, conditions were light. Looks like an excellent turnout for tomorrow. The BRSC AGM was also held and the executive positions were acclaimed. Cal Y carries on as President, Joe M is acclaimed as VP, Max S is Secretary and Lyle T is Treasurer.

Let the games begin....!
