Kalvin Marsh Shoots a Perfect Match

04 Jul 2018 9:47 AM | Darryl Craig (Administrator)

On June 30 2018, Kalvin Marsh shot a 40/40 in a sanctioned Small-bore Standard Silhouette Rifle match in Canmore, Alberta. This is a remarkable achievement, kind of like the perfect baseball game for a major league pitcher. The last time someone shot a perfect match (any silhouette rifle class) in Canada was when Jim Zimmerman did it October 23 1999 in Cranbrook/Ft Steele using his Small-bore Standard Rifle. Only a small number of shooters obtain a Grand Slam (10 out of 10 for each of the 4 animals) over the course of their career. Kalvin did the equivalent of a Grand Slam in one match! I am sure this will not be his last 40.
