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.

BRSC - Benchrest Shooters Canada / Selkirk May 9/10, 2026 Results

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.

Benchrest shooting has never been exactly mainstream, but places like Namaka and Clearwater took "not mainstream" to extremes.  Both ranges were truly grassroots organizations. Today, the venues have changed but the esoteric nature of the sport has not. That is the attraction for most people, I suspect. Bill.

Club Events / Re: Benchrest Open House May 9th 2026 at Rosebud

Great day today at the Open House. Close to 50 attendees and 12 helpers. Seems like a few folks have found their way to the slippery slope of BR. Thanks to the Club for the venue and to all the helpers in the clubhouse and the firing line along with Gary and his crew who hosted the BBQ. Next up is our first shoot of the season June 13/14, which is the 4 Gun at 100 yds event. Reminder we will have the BR201 school on the Thursday, then ask Hugh and Rob a question Friday.

The archives of the old Benchrest Newsletter, are a wealth of information and memories. And Bill; your memory is just fine. I knew I remembered meeting you. But it was a long time ago. And yes; seems you participated often at Namaka. Long drive or not. Some digging in the archives and I found this match. Stan.

I'm surprised I wasn't at that match. I shot a lot in 1980. The Namaka range could be a challenge. At the time, I shot at Namaka, at my home range in Clearwater, B.C., and at Issaquah, Washington. I never had enough money to travel further! Today, I still have to travel significant distances to shoot. Just like everyone else, I guess! Bill
