MAY 18, 2016 - RAMBLINGS OF A SHOOTING BUM

It's mid May and the RNBRA outdoor shooting season is well underway. I had the pleasure of working with a few of the guys from the Fullbore section a couple weekends ago at our target maintenance day on Batouche range at CFB Gagetown. This dedicated group did a much needed cleanup of our target storage and prepped targets for our upcoming  summer. Their hard work was rewarded with a good afternoon of shooting at 600 and 900m.    
Al Much, a Maritime shooting pioneer, trailblazer and friend recently shared a story that describes what motivates many of us who tinker with accurate firearms. ( I'll share it below ).
