Unfortunately the May 22 shoot has been cancelled. The rifle range is closed for repairs.

The June 12 shoot has been relocated to the South-Durham range.
Wind damage was severe earlier this spring and repair work is still in progress at the St-Francois range. We can't be sure when our benchrest program will be able to resume there.

The June 12 shoot was a success, the weather was good until the last match when we got drenched.
It was good practice for next year's Super-shoot (from what I hear :)
Results are attached.
It looks like the next shoot on July 17 will also be held at the South-Durham range.
