I would like to think it was a great weekend.  I hope we were able to put on a good show for everyone.  I think it ran as smooth as it could have.

A lot of work was put in by Grant to get the frames and backer ready.  Lawrence for weed whacking the berms.  Amber for cleaning the clubhouse and running around gathering supplies for the event and barbecue.  Tory for his contribution to the barbecue.  Curtis for supplying Tim's donuts.  Selkirk Game and Fish for the use of the club.  Without the use of the club it would never happen.

I need to thank all the competitors for taking time out of their busy schedules to make the trip.  The furthest was from Vancouver Island and the closest about 15 minutes away.

Congrats to Mike Pollen who ended up with the HWP barrel and Larry Mychalchuk who walked away with the rest built and donated by Ron McDaniel.  Congrats to all the prize winners.

We must thank all the gracious generous donors.

Thanks to Chelsaa and Carmen for scoring and running targets.

Lastly, I have to thank Amber for allowing me to drag her to Selkirk to help with the event.  You were a trooper.

Hope to see everyone at the 2024 BRSC Nationals in Rosebud.

The competitors.  Unfortunately missing was Mike Pollen.  He was swished away by a family gathering.

Well the 2023 BRSC Nationals is in the bank.  Rick will be posting full results when he makes it back home safely. 

I want to say I think it turned out to be a great weekend.  The weather was great with some heat and humidity as well as cool mornings and if memory serves me right,one cool overcast day of practice. 

It was great to finally meet the people who's names you see on the forum and make new acquaintances/friends.

I want to thank all those who travelled the great distances to be a part of the Nationals in Selkirk.  From as far west as Vancouver Island and as close as CooksCreek MB.

Until the full results are posted here are a few pictures to enjoy.

What  I can and will say is a Congratulations to the top 3 in the 2 Gun.

2 Gun winner is Steve Horsley from High River, AB.  Steve shot steady all weekend.  Second place went to Grant Schick Cooks Creek,MB and third to Rick Pollock Calgary AB.  Steve ended up winning ahead of Grant by 9 10 thousands.  Not fairing well myself, (cannon fodder) it was great to look in on the scorer to see the dog fight flip back and forth after targets were shot.  It was a great battle to the end for those at the top.

Congrats again Steve and it was a pleasure to have you.

Another tidbit of info, you do not need to bring a stool for the bench.  The seats are part of the bench.  You save a bit of room not needing them unless for a reloading stool.

We are just over 1 week away.  Looks like things are falling into place.

Like was mentioned earlier I should be at the range no later than 10AM Thursday.  If anyone may be there B4 then please let me know.

Any questions like I said just get ahold of me.  Look forward to seeing those I have not seen in a while.

Just an update.  In the next few weeks I will be emailing to confirm those that are coming.  I have had a few cancellations so there are openings.  At one point we were full.  I believe we have 4 openings at this moment.

I also want to acknowledge what I have been advised we have as sponsors with some prize donations.  If this is not correct please advise me via email.  Cyanchyc@live.ca

Another update.

Re flags, you will need 1 or 2 poles that can make about close to 8' beyond the 100 yard line.  From the bench to 100, you are about 3.5' poles.  If you have Graham flags with the standard pin, I can bring extra taller flag poles for the Graham guys.

The clubhouse, we have 5 tables that we can handle 4 per table with cleaning outside.  If you have and are able to bring a smaller table for cleaning great.  If not we will make it work.  My table that I use is 4'x2'.  I load and clean comfortably.

Flag sharing.  If you have someone you are wanting to share flags with, that will help when registering.  We have guys here who have Graham flags and a few Smiley flag guys.  1 Hood flag guy.

Like I said when it gets to the very beginning of July I will confirm registrations, loading trailers and travel trailers.

The plan is I will be at the range by Thursday noon.  If anyone plans to be sooner let me know. 

Practice will be Thursday afternoon and Friday.  AGM Friday, later in afternoon.  Target frames will go up, bench draw will be done and flag setting can be done.  The plan is we will have someone on site.  The main range will be  closed to the general public for Friday thru Sunday when we are done.

Any other questions or concerns, let me know via email, text, or call.

May 20/21, 2023 is in the books.  Nine brave souls decided to battle it out this weekend.  The weekend started out Friday with many coming in early to practice and for some of us load develop as well.  Wind was twitchy as usual with the Alberta wildfire haze in the air.  Some struggled and some felt okay going into the first match Saturday AM.  Conditions for the day were high teens to low 20 with some switchy winds.

Saturday greeted us with cooler temps in the morning for the LV100.   It warmed up to around 26deg by early afternoon.  Winds were readable and very consistent.  There was none of this quick, switchy wind direction changes.  With the smoke and cloud cover mirage was basically non existant.  Some shot slow and steady across the board whilst not shooting anything really small or anything really big.  Phil Nick came out on top.  Then there were those of us who struggled.  As for me, if I was a better keeper of notes, things may go differently.  Thus, I decided to switch rifles as I did have notes for a load that worked.  Glad I did.

After a short lunch break it was into the HV100.  Again conditions were mild and readable.  This time Grant Schick had his heavy working for him as he was top dog in the HV100.  For the mild conditions there were a lot of puzzled looks at various times.  Was it load, was it me, is it the scope, did I miss something in the wind, is it my front bag or rear bag.  Regardless, there was a lot of chuckles and heckling along the way.

Sunday morning greeted us with much cooler temperatures and the wind.  Yes the ever changing switchy Selkirk winds.  Today there was no such thing as consistent winds and flags.  The mirage also decided to show up.  You had better be on the ball.  When the dust settled in the HV200, Tory Phinn  was the only one who managed to not shoot a group over 1" and became the HV200 winner.

The afternoon brought us to the final leg and the LV200.  The conditions never let up.  Unfortunately for Selkirk's newest BR shooter Curtis Peyson, whom  was recruited thru BR101, Target 1 was not so forgiving.  He managed to get 2 shots before trouble insued.  Missing primers in loaded cases.  Unfortunately for Curtis this would have a hug impact.  By the time the nearest shooter realized he was in some sort of trouble it was basically to late to lend a rifle to finish the group off.  Thanks Tory for trying.  Curtis ended up with a dreaded 6" penalty.  If it not for this penalty on the first target he was well on his way to give us a beat down in the LV200.  The eventual winner was myself, Cal Yanchycki

After the scoring was all tabulated, the HV Grand went to Grant Schick, the LV Grand to Ron McDaniel, and the overall 2 Gun to Grant Schick. Small group awards went to LV100 Tory Phinn, LV200 Cal Yanchycki, HV100 Grant Schick and HV200 Grant Schick.

The decision was also made to award the Everett Amundgard HV Grand Aggregate award along with the Jim Smola 2 Gun award.  Both of these gentlemen were long time shooters in Selkirk during the early years.  Grant told a little history about them.  Grant was fortunate to win both of the awards.  Grant last won these in 1993 and 1991 respectively.  1993 the Everett Amundgard and 1991 the Jim Smola.  It was a long time come for him.  Traditionally these are awarded in August after the Selkirk Provincial match.  Due to hosting the BRSC Nationals the end of July, the decision was made to not have the August Provincial Match.

Regardless of everything that went on, good, bad, or ugly I am sure we all enjoyed the weekend of Heckles and chuckles.  Thanks go out to Tory and Curtis for providing donuts and muffins.  Chelsea Schick for running and scoring the match.  Carmen McDaniel for helping Chelsea and learning how things run on Sunday.   She may be our future scorer.

The next and final match of the year will be the BRSC Nationals July 29/30, 2023.  Hope to see everyone from far and wide there.  Currently we have 27 registered of a possible 28.  Registrations run from NW Ontario all the way to Vancouver Island.  Sure would be awesome if everyone could make it.  It looks to be a great shoot.  I will be touching base with all registrants in early July to confirm.

Final note, not mentioning any names, we currently have 4 prize donors that are worth the price of admission alone and waiting to hear from a few more.

Hope to talk and see y'all soon.

Cal Yanchycki

BRSC - Benchrest Shooters Canada / Re: Kenora Score Match
« on: May 01, 2023, 08:05:15 AM »
Another great and enjoyable shoot.  If you ever get a chance to shoot a VFS match in Kenora, do it.  The wind and switchy conditions make it a humbling place.  One day you can lay down good scores, the next look out.  You find or dial a condition and things are going good until it never wants to come back.  Then you scramble to the sighter and have to hold off about 2 rings and pray that there is NOT a sudden flip in the flags......  I suffered that.....Some of those gusts were nasty.

Otherwise fun time as usual, great comradary, good lunches,(Steve did a great job on the burgers), and the evening get togethers at the Nick's and supper at Ristorante.

Tell we see you in August.
