On PEI we just started doing a few courses of fire. I set up a few courses of fire and next year we hope to run 4-5 courses of fire once a month on Wednesdays and maybe we'll do an 8 course of fire match during the year. Next year I hope that we are more active and have a few shooters do some matches in NB and NS. Any suggestions for an optic? My 1x4 is in milrads with hold over reticle and I hate it and love it all at the same time I think a 2-7 would be the cats meow.
Service Rifle NOOB wannabe questions

Hi Guys,
Thank you for the great introduction to SCC in this thread. It sounds like an awesome game, and I am definitly interested in giving it a go. I have a couple questions to get me started.
1) optics- what are we really looking for here. Magnification, adjustability,( say 3-15 scope with tactical turrets) vs Elcan or acog like ballistic retical? Obviously good glass, cost good money, would really appreciate some good consideration here, as I don't have current optics of either kind and would like to start getting set up.
2) courses and clinics in 2016. I have heard of the milcun range and school and will be checking them out. Are there other courses or clinics being offered this year? I live in Winnipeg, so I believe will have to travel.
3) Any Manitoba SC shooters that are willing to train with a noob?
I find excuses to come out to BC a couple of times a year, is there anyone out there willing to take a noob under wing, and help me get started up the learning curve?
Thanks in advance, and I am really looking forward meeting and shooting with you guys in 2016.

We all shoot "for the fun of it". We compete against ourselves - not against others.
My challenge is to get through a shoot, doing the right things at the right time, without dropping anything.

It depends on how bad your eyes are, I know a shooter who can't tell when targets come up at 500 and goes to prone or runs up when the other shooters start moving. Once shooting the optic makes hits possible.
Sorry for the thread necromancy, but...
Are there any service rifle shoots in Newfoundland? I'm looking to get back into shooting, and it'd be pretty fun to go back to shooting like I did when I was enlisted.
