Photo of our revamped smallbore range!

I don't imagine there are many/any BC shooters frequenting here, but I wanted to share a photo of our newly rebuilt smallbore range at The Victoria Fish & Game club. This rebuild has been 2 years in the planning and execution and finally last week came to fruition. You can see before and after shots below. We used to simply have steel rails standing about 4-6" off the ground with space for two sets of each animal all in a side-by-side configuration.
We now have big great looking backstops with fresh sand and double-stacked target rails with room for 12 shooters per relay. All nice and freshly painted. The contrast is excellent for shooting now and our equipment should hold up much better now that it's not in the path of SKS fire.
Art Archer is the director of our silhouette group and the one who put this all together, but his wife Sue, local shooters Mike, Keith, Dom and probably others all had a big part in the elbow grease involved. Thanks to everyone.
We shot our first match on the new stands this Sunday and everyone was really pleased with the upgrade.
