15 shooters showed up to compete in mostly calm conditions, although the second relay did have its moments. 

Paul took Sporter (as well as all 4 best targets) while Derreck took Custom, exactly matching his Benchrest score!  We also welcomed Scott, we hope he will make our monthly matches a habit.

Benchrest is becoming quite competitive, with more than half the shooters averaging more than 2000 per target.  Practice makes perfect! 

Thanks to Paul for organizing the match, and to Shawn, Mike and Mel for scoring.     

Next match is July 19, the Bob Goehring Memorial, our premier match of the year.  Hope to see a good turnout!     
 
...and the results:

14 shooters showed up to compete in typical spring conditions with variable winds, gusty at times.  It's Cottonwood season, and the fluff sometimes passed for wind indicators. 

Paul took Benchrest and Sporter while Derreck took Custom with the best overall score of the day.  We also welcomed Clem, we hope he will make our monthly matches a habit!

Thanks to Paul for organizing the match, and to Shawn and Mike for scoring.     

Next match is June 28, hope to see a good turnout!     
 
...and the results:

With a bunch of absences our May match attracted 6 shooters - Thanks to all who participated. 

Weather was challenging from the beginning, with shifting winds and changing temperatures. 

Art organized and ran the targets with help from Don.  Art also did the scoring while Joe called the line.  Thanks to all who pitched in.   

Next match is our annual Jim Latham Memorial Match Sunday, June 1 where we will shoot Score at 100, 200 and 300 yards.  This match has a long tradition and we hope to see a good turnout!

...and this month's results - 100 Yards:



200 Yards:


 
...and the Agg:

We held this year's shoot in the usual changeable weather conditions, although this spring has been much colder than last year!  A few last minute cancellations left us with a thin field of only 12 shooters, and we shot 2 relays on a single backer frame.  As usual, practice and the 2 match days all provided very different conditions. 

As usual, the scoring and target crews provided prompt and accurate service!

Thanks to all who participated, particularly our visitors from Vancouver Island, who made the ferry journey.

And finally, thanks to all the shooters who pitched in to help.  It was always easy to fine someone to lend a hand!

You must be a BRSC member to participate, and guns must follow the BRSC/NBRSA rules for Light and Heavy Varmint.

Hope to see you there!

This month, we held our combined Group and Score 300 yard match.  In this format, we hang both a Group and a 200 yard Score target at 300 yards.  You have 14 minutes to complete both targets, and we repeat the process 5 times for the complete match. 

A good turnout of 10 shooters got beautiful fall weather and very mild conditions, although, as usual, conditions started to pick up as the morning went on.  We started at 10 degrees while we finished at close to 20. 

With Pete away, Art handled the targets, Allan took our money and Joe called the match.  Thanks to all who pitched in! 

Our next match is November 3rd, and we'll be back to shooting Group at 100 and 200 yards. 

Because it is hard to compare Group and Score results, we adopt a scoring system where a shooter gets 1 point for each person with a lower score / group size in a particular match.  These scores are tallied and the one with the most points wins. 

Here are the results:

12 shooters showed up to compete on a beautiful early fall morning.  Conditions were very benign.   

Paul took Benchrest and Sporter while Mel took Custom.  The scores in Sporter have been steadily improving, and the top two scores in Sporter would have secured second place in the Benchrest class!

Thanks to Paul for organizing the match.  Scoring was a group affair, with Shawn, Mike, Mel and Derrick all pitching in.   

Next match is October 26, our last match of the season.     
 
...and the results:

11 hardy shooters showed up to compete on a west coast rainy day.  Despite the rain, the winds were quite mild. 

Paul took Benchrest, Mel took Sporter and Derreck scored a victory in the single member Custom class.  Needless to say, Derreck also scored a clean sweep of the Best Targets for his class!  We need more Custom entries for next month...

Thanks to Paul for organizing the match.  Scoring was a group affair, with Shawn, Mike, Mel and Derrick all pitching in to hande the damp targets!

Next match is September 28, hoping for a good turnout!   
 
...and the results:

Your humble scribe was a no-show for the match, so the writeup is shorter than usual!

YoDave's Army from the Island showed up again and kicked some serious butt, taking the top 5 positions in Benchrest.  I also note that the top 6 shooters in Benchrest posted average scores better than 2000.  Good shooting!

Thanks to all who showed up to compete, particularly our out of town visitors.  Thanks also to those who took on running the match. 

We would also like to thank our sponsors:
    Italian Sporting Goods
    Reliable Gun
    Hirsch Precision
    Yo Dave
    Ray Parkin


Next match is August 24, hope to see a good turnout!

...and here are the results - Updated July 27 with Equipment List - Thanks to Paul!

A thin crowd of 9 shooters showed up to compete in the first match of the summer.  It's been a cool spring, and the conditions were mild although the winds were a definite factor. 

Paul resumed his winning ways, handily taking the Benchrest class while Mike took Custom and Mel prevailed in Sporter. 

Thanks to Paul for organizing the match.  Thanks also to Shawn and Mel for the scoring.   

Next match is the annual Bob Goehring Memorial, our big match of the year.  We expect a significant contingent from the Island as well as a few extra local shooters.
