APRIL 22, 2017 - LOAD DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP AT MINTO RANGES





Everything came together in the end and we had a great day at the range. The Minto range with two separate buildings was perfect. Everyone walked away happy with their velocity SD and ready for long range matches. We measured lands, then tried a few powder charges and seating depths, and once there was a good result, fired enough shots for good statistics so we were confident in the performance. We even managed to find a good 900m load for a 24 inch hunting rifle that certainly will compete with our target rifles. I think we can expect a good turnout at the first few matches and a few new regular shooters this year.

Attendees were Adam MacDonald, Gord Holloway, Ken Kyle, Mike Connell, Paul Plume, and Matthew McAllister.
