Industry day at the range is now done and definitely did not disappoint. The sheer volume of ammunition that gets fired in the day is hard to fathom without experiencing it in person. The exibitors did a great job and a smile filled day was had by all.
The worry of not being able to see and shoot all you would like to is not something one has to worry about and the atmosphere is very friendly.
The new Glock coming to Canada was there and it was nice to be able to shoot a regular size Glock right after the slimmer single stack version to do an instant comparison.
Mossberg had their new handgun at range day and although not allowed in Canada it was nice to see it and shoot it.
Cadex had Canadian Rob Furlong on hand at their lane and it was a pleasure to meet him. I am unable to post a video but was a neat experience having him narrate and spot while I shot 1090 yards. Surprisingly good day for me as all shots were hits and it made up for purposely not drinking coffee this morning to be stable for shooting long range
Tootall didn’t disappoint and shot an amazing set as well. It would have been pretty hard to remove the smiles from either of our faces after that.
Cadex had the young lady from the cover of their brochure there and that young lady was a phenomenal shooter herself.
The obligatory full auto and select fire is well awesome
The new 350 Winchester cartridge was on hand in 350 Winchester. It will be interesting to see if it takes off. Being a straight wall I wasn’t sure how it would feed in a bolt rifle but the rounds I fired all fed well and recoil was tame.
Aguila had their 5mm ammunition on site and it was a fun experience to go retro and shoot 5mm.
It was blowing fairly hard by mid day and when shooting the savage prs gun it was requiring holding over 6 so definitely windy.
Thank you to all the exhibitors and the Boulder rifle and pistol club for hosting this. It was a great event.
