Leucan benefit

[hnachaj]

There is a Leucan (Leukemia/Cancer support for Children) benefit shoot at Montreal Anglers and Hunters L'Acadie Shooting Complexe, tomorrow. It is the largest benefit event in Canada by shooters and friends. Last year they raised somewhere around $85K! It has moved from the little city of Quebec to the Montreal area, due to the closing of the clay shooting club. I know per fact, that there is still room for walkins. The entry fee includes targets and probbly ammo plus, a great banquet at the Officer's Mess at the St-Jean Military base.

Also, many of the firearms that one would like to try and shoot will be on display and/or trial by Beretta, Browning, Ceaser Gurini, Blaser, Merkel, Remington and many more.

The weather is cooperating, so come and enjoy the fun for a good cause.

I will be they guy with the blue Rhino and camera, if you are looking for me.

Best regards,
Henry

What a great day after suffering over the years shooting at Valcartier in the cold, wet and snowy weather. I got to try out the somewht new Beretta UGB. NO recoil!!! Even with the adjustable stock et to a 6 foot 9 monster, the gun swung well with a bit on front weight just off the center. It was a trap gun shooting probably 75/25. One had to float the skeet targets with some space showing. At $3500CDN, it is a little pricy, but what a piece of precison machinery! It is very easy openning!

See the pics in the Storefront/Gallery section under Leucan 2008.
