Thanks Kenny
About everything I'm doing has been gleaned off you and a few others on this site over the years

Brian,

I am glad that some of my stuff was helpful that’s the highest praise a shooter can have.


Kenny W.

Good grief Brian, that's some great shooting....Don't you just love those awesome dirty looking cases!!!

Thanks, I'm pretty sure that was the missing ingredient !!

If the weather forecasters are correct and this weather pattern holds, we will be having a long range match on Saturday the 6th at 1:00.

It was Nice to have a few good days so we could have a match, after a 3 month layoff !! Evidently more than a few people were ready to get out as we had quite a few out of town guests. Made for a much more fun match and was great to see everyone again .

We had a wonderful day on the Quigley flat. There was a great turnout. Butch and Linda made a trip over from South Dakota as well as some Wyoming friends. Looking forward to next month.

Weather permitting, next Saturday April 3rd, we will be holding our monthly Long Range Match.
I talked to Wes, the other match director and we are going to add a little more to the match.
Weather and time permitting, we are going to leave open the option of holding a second 30 shot match after the first.

This will give those traveling, more shooting for their traveling time and
those of us that want to try more than one rifle or just get more practice under match conditions the ability to do so.

Altho we aren't eliminating it------ yet, I've never been a big fan of the 1200 yd side match and that may be a future option.

I like the idea of shooting two matches! Problem is I'm usually exhausted after the match. Could you allow time between matches for a nap?

Well I guess you could nap while they are shooting the 1200 yard match and painting the targets.

A couple of the veterans took us youngsters to school today !!!! Gary Campbell won the first match, and Ed Schleichardt won the second match. Wish I could give more details, but all I remember is a nice steady wind from our left rear quarter and then we started the match. the rest was a blur of devilish winds and lots of knob twisting, up and down, left and right, to and fro and back and forth and suddenly someone called last shot and it was over. And then some sadistic individual said, " that was so much fun lets try it again, and we did !!!

Looks like another Match is in the books !!
Dave took Top honors in irons and the Match Win, and Gene got thetop Scope Honors.
Rumor has it Gene would of cleaned up on everyone but had a hard time remembering which way to turn the knobs on his new scope !!
Ray and family made it out from Illinois. Pretty sure it is his second trip out, but don't have my records with me to verify.
Claudia squeeked by Lori in a tiebreaker for top lady shooter, and Wes got the top honors on the 1200 yd buffalo.

Is there a long range match this Saturday? I haven't heard if Al shut things down because of the fire danger.

Wes just texted me tonight wondering about not having it I kind of agreed with him. I can't make it anyway. they are canceling it cuz of the heat and fire danger.
