Hey, would like to get into competitive shooting, most Practical/ dynamic/ action shooting in ontario is 3 gun or handgun only, can’t really do that with the current freeze.
Anyone have any info how practical rifle only shooting in ontario?
I know ORA runs events but looking for a club setting to practice

Right hand dominant but legally blind in my right eye…

I’m in the process of getting my license and have started doing the deep dive into first firearms and all that.

As a kid I’d always go target shooting with my uncle and cousin but would really struggle with the rifles as my right eye is almost completely blind but I’m right handed.

Now I’m looking at purchasing a shotgun as my first firearm but working if I’ll need to shoot it my non dominant side so I can actually see down the barrel/sight.

I know for rifles I will probably be buying with the action/bolt on the left side and learn how to shoot from my non dominant hand. But with a shotgun would I do the same?

Also would I need to find a shotgun that’s made for left handed people so I don’t have shells ejecting towards my face?

If anyone has experience with this I’d love some advice.

Quebec International Skeet Provincials got rained out but I still hit the range to get some practice in.

Wanted to see what ammo my CZ 457 - 22 WMR prefers

Tested at 50 yards:

• CCI 40 gr JHP
• Remington 40 gr JHP
• Federal 50 gr JHP

Here's my results

Hey everyone, hope your having a wonderful day. I live in calgary and have been wanting to start doing long range until now I've only shot up until around 3-4 hundred yards. I have been trying to find a spot which is longer and havent been able to is there anywhere you guys know where I would be able to do find a longer range. Thank you

Got out yesterday to sight in and ring some steel with my new tikka t3x ace 300 win mag. Featured is my buddy and his new 7mm rem mag t3x lite stainless.

Finally went to a proper trap shooting range for the first time yesterday and I was just blown away with how awesome it was and how friendly everyone was. I got a 30 min private shooting lesson for free from a friend of the owner; bear in mind this is my first real gun I've had in my life, so I was very appreciative. We even patterned my shot! The other shooters were really nice too, so I was just chatting between my rounds with the older guys, got to look at a couple really nice shotguns.

For context, I bought my first gun, a mossberg 88 about a month ago. Been playing around with some snap caps, went to range a couple times to practice with some slugs over the past month too. I was really nervous going into this but man, I am blown away with how nice and accepting everyone was.

Is there anywhere that you fine folks know of where I can go to a range and rent a gun and shoot some shit for an hour or so in the province of New Brunswick? I don't have my licenses for various reasons (not that I'm legally barred from possessing a firearm for clarity) but I am a fan of firearms.

I have a buddy who owns guns but he lives away for work and rarely has time to shoot when he is home.

I got a tikka t3x in a 308 win I decided on

I’m looking for a safe spot around Barrie, Huntsville, Port Perry, or nearby areas for some shooting practice on Crown land. I understand how difficult it is to share a good spot because some people don’t respect the area or misuse it. I just moved from Calgary, so I truly understand the value of having a clean and responsible place to shoot.

I’ve already spent a lot of time searching through ATLAS and other websites and apps, but it’s still been very difficult to find clear and reliable locations in these areas. Most information seems outdated, restricted, or hard to confirm.

I give you my word that I’ll fully respect the location, clean up everything after use, and help keep the area maintained. I’d really appreciate any help or guidance.

Ithaca flues made in 1921. They don't make em like they used to.

Don’t know what happened to the bottom one lol

Shot shell reloading has become a fun part of the shooting hobby for me. However, with today's supply chain issues, it's sometimes hard to find recipes for the available components, or components for the available recipes - especially when I want to create specialty loads.

I have an engineering background, the SAAMI standards manual, and access to much of the equipment needed to do my own pressure testing. I'm going to start doing this for my own loads, but now I'm wondering if there's an opportunity for a side-business here. If there was a pressure/velocity testing service in your area, would you use it? Do you think others would? What price would you find reasonable?

Edit: I would be limited to testing shot shells. Not rifle rounds.

Thanks for any feedback!

(Dear mods: please don't delete my post, I'm not actually selling anything here! Thanks for all your work keeping this sub running!)

If you are and wouldn't mind accompanying a guest, I'd like to tag along. I've heard good things about the club, particularly that it has a 300 yard range. Would be sweet to check it out before committing to the membership, since it is a bit of a drive for me.

Side discussion: what are some of the better ranges in the lower mainland?

Does anyone know of any crown land spots to shoot close to Barrie ?

Hey everyone,

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with an IPSC champion for a conversation about competitive shooting, training, mindset, and the journey behind becoming a better shooter.

I’m building more firearms-related content and I’d really appreciate feedback from the wider shooting community—not just IPSC competitors. Whether you’re into competition shooting, hunting, tactical shooting, or just enjoy firearms, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

What did you enjoy? What topics would you like to see covered in future episodes? Any advice on improving the content?

Thanks for taking the time to check it out. I’m always looking to learn from people with more experience in the community.

Made a post about the legend Menno on gunpost who sold me an 1873 MAS revolver reamed for .45ACP. Yesterday I shot it for the first time and it ran great! Honestly it ran a little better than my shaved Webley MK1 to say the least (both of which are great antiques, don’t get me wrong!).

Very happy with this purchase and I recommend anyone else on the fence pull the trigger on a MAS!

Time to zero in on the range.

so i have been on the fence on getting the drum mag adapter from tommy's but really want to see a video of it actually working. I have looked everywhere but nothing always see some comments saying that they got it to work and had no problems but wouldn't reply back with a video so was wondering if anyone has gotten it to work and can link a video of it working?

Looking for a good spot to target shoot on in Squamish bc. Are there any good spots to check out that are within a 30-45 min drive from the area ?

What is the closest gun club to this area and if not I can just shoot NR but where are good and safe spots.
