INTER-MARITIME & BRITISH TEAM MATCH - JUNE 15 & 16, 2013 - RESULTS

The Nova Scotia Rifle Association hosted the 136th Annual Inter-Maritime Match on June the 15th and the British Team Match on June the 16th at their beautiful Bull Meadow Ranges facility in Beaverbank just outside of Bedford/Sackville. We thank Andrew Webber, the president of the NSRA and John Marshall, the Fullbore Program Chairman, and all the hard working volunteers as well as the target changers for a very enjoyable 2 days of shooting.

Each of the three maritime provinces fielded a full team of 8 shooters for the Inter-Maritime Match.  These teams were selected on the basis of trials in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick but this was not possible for Team PEI as they had been rained out of all the scheduled matches so far this year. As a result, we had the priviledge of meeting a range of new and old shooters from the Island - from the youngest ever to shoot at the Inter-Maritime to the oldest ever and many in between.

Conditions on both days of shooting were quite good. Although it had been raining the day before and the range was spongy and wet, we enjoyed sunny and partially cloudy days with nice warm temperatures in the afternoons. Winds were mild in the mornings but were more robust and changed quickly in velocity and direction in the afternoons. This caught most shooters for a few points as the day progressed. The weather was beautiful for the entire shoot and as we drove home we received the next installment of rain.

 

 In the overall standings for the Inter-Maritime Match, Nova Scotia placed first with a score of 877.50, New Brunswick placed second with a score of 870.40 and PEI placed third with a score of 782.26
