November was quiet but outstanding for the progress that some of our club members have made. In this sport there are many periods of plateau that can be frustrating to get beyond. November saw two of our shooters have their own ‘Ah ha!’ moments and have started the upward trend of skill progression once [...]
The PPC Sub-club held its last monthly match of 2023 on December 3rd, to close out our 40th year of PPC matches at Abbotsford Fish & Game club. The turnout was lower than normal, most likely due to the cold and substantial rain. The year was very successful with our competitors accumulating multiple gold, [...]
The month of November held our last event of the year as we will be taking a short break over December for our exam period and for the holidays. We had a great turnout throughout the month even with the sub-par weather at our last event and are looking forward to being back on [...]
Our last shoot on November 19 saw 3 shooters. The weather wasn’t the greatest with rain off and on and light wind gusts. Anyone interested in Trap shooting is always welcome and we are more than happy to assist new shooters. We begin our Sunday shoots at 10am and go until everyone has had enough. [...]
We have now moved IPSC Practices to the indoor range on Sunday afternoons. This seems to be a more popular time for members as many of them come from out of town and driving in the rain and dark was a hindrance. IPSC BC match dates should be announced soon. Keep an eye on [...]

Wednesday nights continue to be busy. Thank God we have our Indoor range back! Our club received some excellent news this week.

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 [...]
Our last CPCA sanctioned match is being held on Sunday, November 5th and our December 3rd will be our Christmas Turkey match to end up the 2023 shooting season. Our Christmas turkey shoot consists of a 60 round PPC followed by the turkey match, a one on one balloon match and finishes of with [...]
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 [...]
