October 26, 2014 - PETITCODIAC FINAL CENTERFIRE BR. CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH - RESULTS
The Match - sent by John Corbett:
The Petitcodiac Centrefire Benchrest Championship Shoot was held on Sunday, October 26, 2014 at the Petitcodiac Sportsman's Club Rifle Range. Registration time was at 9:30 am and the shoot started at 10:00 am. A good number of shooters qualified to shoot at no fee and to participate in the Championship Top 5 Awards. Other shooters were welcome to attend and shoot but with the usual shoot fee and no participation in the Top 5 Awards. Shooters who did not place in the Top 5 Awards participated in a Prize Draw so everyone who participated in the Shoot was a winner.
Lunch was provided to all in attendance.
The course of fire was 3 hunter class targets with 2 shots per bull on score and unlimited sighters in a 15 minute relay. This resulted in 4 relays for the 18 shooters.
Prizes:
Prizes were donated by Hirsch Precision. We thank Peter Dobson for this donation and for his generous support of shooting in New Brunswick.
The Conditions:
For several days before the match, it had been raining furiously, and we were all afraid that the match would be a very wet one with the winds that Petitcodiac is known for. When we drove down to the range it was cold, about 4 C but there was only the slightest hint of rain - a misting. During the match it was only during the last 2 relays that a substantial rain appeared. It remained cold on the firing point and did not exceed 10 C. Those horrible and tricky Petitcodiac winds? - not a sigh or even a breath.
This was very unusual but did lead to some excellent scores - 3 shooters shot a perfect match and joined the illustrious Petitcodiac 300 CLub: Cecil Harvey with 300/20X; Dan Gladstone with 300/13X and for the first time in his shooting career, Matt Armstrong shot a perfect 300 with 12X. Congratulations guys - well done. That's not all - there were 22 perfect targets shot in all - a record for a match I'm sure.
