A great big thanks to Dave and Linda Dunn. Linda washed all of our shooting matts (they were beyond filthy) and Dave made some more prone wood supports. Also, a big thanks to Peter who ran things when I was off sick. We have purchased some Savage Rascal Target Rifles in left hand. These are [...]
Please note that the 22 Club is cancelled on Monday, March 28th, due to the Easter holiday weekend. Thanks!
It has been an awesome year, with many families bringing out three to four youth to join in our Monday evening shoots. We have been joined by many community youth groups throughout the year, either working towards badges or just part of their program. Our largest attendance was from a local church youth group where [...]
We have a preliminary budget approval for purchases of additional 22 left handed rifles that can be used by the 22 Club. However, after contacting many suppliers and doing research in depth, YUCK! Talking with Peter at Rusty Woods in Mission, if we re-sight a rifle that is not made to accept peep sights, it [...]
The .22 Club would like to request budgetary funding for the purchase of four .22 caliber left landed target rifles for next year. These would be used by both right and left handed shooters, who have a dominant left eye. It appears from internet searches that we will have to buy the rifles, then have [...]
In November, we had the Aboriginal Sport, Recreation and Physical Activities Partners Council join us for a Monday evening shoot. This group joins us at least once a year, and will be again with us this month. We had 13 attendees from their group. The .22 Club would like to request budgetary funding for the [...]
Church, youth, and school groups are now coming out to join us. We had the Outdoor Club from Abbotsford Christian School with us last week, with 14 shooters. Bob from the Pistol Club joined us, and we had the opportunity to let the youth try both handguns and rifles. Had an opportunity to bring some [...]

Some are Military, and others Police, taking their children shooting Some are retired, bringing their grandchildren, others are complete families Ages range from about [...]
Summer is surprising active for .22 Rifle Club, as weather does not to be a factor. If you are a new shooter, we ask you come 10-15 minutes earlier so we can review safety, etc. with you. We start at 7:00 PM sharp each Monday, except for holiday Mondays, which is a day off. We [...]
Attendance was again quite varied during June 2015, from a low of 4 to a high of 15. We have many family groups and non-members attending. We will start using the video projector shortly as an aid to review shooting habits. It seems that many shooters know how to shoot, it’s just that they don’t [...]
