Having used that one a bunch of times, I think its more a function for achieving a zero template (for ricochets anyway) rather that protection from the elements. Although pretty ironic being on an AFB, especially coming from Petawawa where conducting a PWT3 in the middle of Feb at Y Range, you were simply given an extra 15 seconds to navigate the snow during the run downs. Good times.
