It would appear from newspaper reports that our good mate from Canberra, Jim McKinley died in a house fire yesterday.
This is a great loss to the Canberra Club and to shooting in general.

Jim was a larger than life character, whose parade ground voice could be heard as Range Officer at the Australia Day Matches each year.

I have known Jim for around 30 years - he was, simply, a good bloke.

Condolences and sincere sympathies to his family.

We are very much diminished.
