The Kamloops Fire Centre has banned binary exploding targets.
Since April 1, the BC Wildfire Service has responded to numerous incidents within the Kamloops Fire Centre where binary exploding targets are suspected to have caused wildfires.
Binary exploding targets are homemade or pre-packaged explosives (such as Tannerite, Firebird or Sure Shot) that are used for firearms practice so a shooter can see from a distance whether the target was hit. These targets have been added to the list of prohibited activities in an effort to prevent human-caused wildfires.
