The Petawawa Gun Club is a shooting club which is operated through PSP (Personal Support Programs). The Club allows members, both military and civilian, to shoot on multiple outdoor ranges for rifle and pistol/shotguns located on Garrison Petawawa’s training grounds. Shooting clinics and competitions are offered periodically through The Club and such events have been very successful in the past.
This year we are proud to announce that we will be continuing the Sharpshooter Competition as an annual event. This is a friendly competition for shooters of all skill levels. There will be prizes for winners of the matches. The competition has been designed by club member and precision shooter, Jamie Dent. This will mark the second year for The Club to have a dedicated precision competition. The goal is to encourage shooters of all skill levels to come out and experience precision shooting matches as well as to increase interest in shooting sports overall.
The competition will be a two day event consisting of various matches. All match winners will be announced and prizes will be awarded for all matches on the second day. The specific timings and schedules will be forwarded well in advance of the competition.
The competition will occur at, Garrison Petawawa on September 26th and 27th , 2015. We plan to run the competition rain or shine but should any unforeseen circumstances make this impossible, a back-up date may be scheduled. Participants will be notified well in advance if this occurs.
Due to the fact that we are operating the competition on the base range, there are restrictions on what calibres are allowed to be used. Only 303,.223/5.56, 7.62x39 7.62x54R and .308, rifles may be entered into this competition.
The competition will consist of several unique matches, details will be delivered to all participants via email prior to the competition. This year the competition will NOT be broken into two classes. Competitors will all be competing in the same matches against each other.
Shooters are required to bring their own rifle, ammunition required for the matches in which they wish to compete as well as proper eye and ear protection. It is also highly recommended to bring a day bag to carry ammo and equipment throughout the day as well as a bag or container to collect empty casings. Other personal equipment that shooters wish to bring such as shooting mats are allowed however some matches do have kit restrictions.
It is strongly recommended that competitors have acquired their rifle D.O.P.E before the day of the competition. The weekend before the competition we will host an open range day to allow shooters to acquire this information and become acquainted with the range.
Registering for the competition does not require the competitor to participate in every match. Competitors may select which individual matches they wish to compete in, however, the registration fee will remain the same. The registration fee for the competition will be $40 per entrant. Registration and payment is required in advance and spaces will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis.
Match details, along with a timetable for the day, how to get to the range, as well as links for local hotels and restaurants will be forwarded to all participants well in advance of the competition. For any further information or to register, please contact us at:
