You can always change the headers on Bughole to your range and region.


Yah, I have just not taken the time to set Chelsea's pc up for that.

Well folks.  What a hum dinger of a weekend it was at the Selkirk Wildlife Range.  If you were not there you missed out on some great conditions (insert sarcasm).  The warmest of the weekend was Friday with a high of 14 and the usual winds out the North.  Those north winds brought the cold air with them into Saturday and Sunday.   Saturday morning started out with temps about 5 deg and got to about 9 deg before it began to drop back down before we were done shooting for the day.  Sunday started out about the same but was cooler throughout the day.  Needless to say there were torque, gloves coming out and hoods pulled over ones head.  The winds were just like your windshield wipers put on high.  They almost never settled down to give you a chance to have a condition.  If it did, which was maybe for a group or 2 some lucked out.  Grant Schick took advantage of that and shot a screamer in HV 100 with an .096.  Trying to figure if one was in tune or not, well who would have known.

All in all, the small group that we are, we had many laughs along the way played to the tune of "Bang Your Head".

Thanks to Chelsea and Simaran (sp?) for scoring and running targets and to those who helped to set up and tear down the frames.

Next match is in July and look forward to warmer temps (hopefully).  Enjoy the results from the fun filled windy cold weekend.

Thought I would share.  This was my first ever NBRSA Nationals held at MillCreek Range in Kansas.  A time I will never forget along with the look from Tony when he and Faye were in the golf cart.  Rick P introduced us to Tony.  I had my rifle over my shoulder, Tony proceeded to tap the butt end of my stock.  The look I will never forget from Tony.  I will never forget it.

Anyhow I had this shirt signed by the greatest male and female shooters in SR Benchrest.  The targets were not great but I had to save them for myself and to look back when I struggle.

I still have that rifle and I believe every but one 2 gun i have won was with that rifle which I still have.

Sorry to hear Dan.  Would be nice to see you down.

In other news, yes it is early and 7 months away but we have 20 interested in a max capacity of 28 shooters.

Well 2026 is upon us and clubs are finalizing match schedules.  The 2026 Selkirk BR Shooters schedule is as follows.

May 8-10 Spring Opener
July 17-19  Manitoba Provincials
Sept. 3-6 BRSC Nationals

These are the usual 2 gun LV/HV 100/200 yard formats.  Match shooting will be on the Sat and Sun of each weekend.  The Friday the range is closed to the public for practice.

Hope to see all those who are able to attend.  Contact either of us with questions.

Cal/Grant 

I have had a few inquiries re the date.  The planning stages are for Sept 5 & 6, 2026.  That is Labor day long weekend.
 Ideally we would have liked August long weekend but it is not in the cards.  Weather in Manitoba is still good in September.  I am aware that it sort of conflicts with the end of the NBRSA Nationals ending the weekend before for those who plan on attending it.  This makes the BRSC Nationals a true ending to the season.  More updates to follow.  Cal

Something else I should mention, the inaugural Walter Mychalchuk LV Grand Aggregate.

Many may have never met Walter or shot against him.  In my mind he was the life of the shoot.  He no longer shoots as he is at the ripe ole age of 92.  His eyesight is not the best.  His son Larry has carried on the tradition.  Walter loved the sport and said he wished he had started when he was a lot younger.  This award will be handed out every Provincials.

Enjoy the picture of Match Director Grant Schick, Larry Mychalchuk, and inaugural winner Tory Phinn.

Also here is a picture of Walter from years gone by winning the 2 gun.  Smile Walter.....


 
 

The last of the results.

Not the prettiest small groups but the usual Selkirk switchy twitchy winds from the lake.

By the looks of it one is unable to stack flags below the target?  Is that a moving backer as well or was just a score shoot?
