That is great news. Pick a date and we will be there!

All are invited to the Benchrest Open House being held May 9th at the Rosebud Silhouette & Benchrest Club.

We are West of Calgary. https://goo.gl/maps/j3MZ9Z2zfEA2 note no need for the K Country pass if you are only going to the range.

Details are on the attached poster, including a QR code to sign up or you can just email me at rickpollock@shaw.ca to register. There is no cost to attend, we just need to know how many are coming to plan for helpers and the BBQ.

This is a great chance to learn what centerfire Benchrest is all about in an informal atmosphere. We will have hands on demonstrations of all aspects of Benchrest shooting and competition including live fire opportunities for anyone so inclined to try out a BR rifle.

There will be a free BBQ at noon. It will run 9am to 4pm. Bring hearing protection and eye protection.

Fasten your seatbelt and wear a helmet! See you in 2026.
