October was a bit odd with two back-to-back holiday Mondays, but there have been some great evenings since with folks starting to focus in on both the kneeling and standing positions. I hope to see more folks joining us Monday evenings through November and look forward to seeing all of you regularly! Some reminders: [...]
We had our last practice of the season scheduled for October 16th but since the weather wasn’t looking great in the afternoon I made the decision to cancel. Of course shortly after I made the call the weather got better and the sun came out at the range. Expect practices to return in the [...]
Wednesday nights continue to be busy. Thank God we have our Indoor range back! Our club received some excellent news this week. Curtis Meyers has qualified and made team Canada to shoot on the world stage. The World Archery 3D Championship in Slovenia. This is a major accomplishment and a true testament of dedication. Make [...]
ATS hosted its last course for the year provided by Veritac! 8am start on both Saturday and Sunday with 15 shooters on the line! Great introduction course to tactical shooting where attendees learned from basic manipulation of the firearms, learned about why we miss and what can be done about it, and finished the [...]

I hope everyone had a happy Halloween this year! Those of us at our last range event had a blast shooting pumpkins and a small cannon for that matter. Cleanup was made very easy thanks to tarps and ground covers, and thanks again to both Rob and Ryan for supplies and the cannon. This [...]

Come out and give Steel a try on Tuesday nights on Range 4, we accept everyone! 22s both rifle and pistol, centerfire pistol, and PCC too. No holster [...]
Cadet units are not currently being issued any ammo so we still don't have an idea of when we could start Thursday night biathlon practices. My ammo requisition hasn't even been acknowledged as received, so November isn't looking too hopeful. We are only authorized to use DND ammo in our DND rifles or I [...]
The amnesty order that was set to expire at the end of October for our AR-15’s etc. has been extended until October 25, 2025. Just after the next Federal election. This Amnesty Order encompasses the firearms banned by the May 1, 2020 Order in Council. Hopefully this is good news for the shooting community. [...]
Nights have been going good, big thanks to Bob for running the nights while Warren and I were gone to Europe. The new steel is really sounding good, much more ring to it than the old stuff. Come out and give Steel a try on Tuesday nights on Range 4, we accept everyone! 22s [...]
