PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND RIFLE ASSN - APM - JULY 27 & 28, 2013 - RESULTS

The 141st Annual Prize Meet of the Prince Edward Rifle Assn. was held on July 27 and 28, 2013 at the beautiful Alexandra Range. This range is immaculate with very good shooting mounds and a beautiful view of Northumberland Strait. It was a very good shoot and we all enjoyed ourselves a great deal.
To make an APM run smoothly and a good experience for the shooters, it takes a lot of effort and work from many people. At the risk of leaving some out, our thanks go to Ian Hogg and his daughter, Chuck Bachmanek, Dale MacLeod, and the folks who worked behind the scenes.
Additionally we thank the young butts crew for whom this experience was their first - a very steep learning curve - and who did a marvelous job of scoring each shot on target. Not easy even for the experienced.
At the beginning of the first day, the weather looked like it would be awful to shoot in - very windy, wet, cloudy and cool. As it turned out, we had very little rain which amounted to a light sprinkling now and then. The wind was the big story for the first day - it was the strongest wind (about 35 km/hr with lots of gusts coming fairly steadily from 1 or 2 o'clock) most shooters could remember on the Island. Even so , some very good scores were recorded. The second day was quite different with the same precipitation and clouds but much diminished wind coming from 5 or 6 o'clock with occasional complete reversals. This was very tricky at times requiring substantial wind adjustments from shot to shot. This caught several shooters by surprise at times - ouch!
