Re: Proposed BPTR Federation and Byers News
Kenny,
From your posts elsewhere it appears you are trying to to be inclusive of not only the long range paper matches but long range steel target matches also.
Is that correct?

Re: Proposed BPTR Federation and Byers News
Sounds good.
Can't speak for the Forsyth club
But definitely interested when I get my range done.
Rehanging a steel NRA sized target , and will make provisions for adding 3 ft extensions for creedmoor style target.
In the process of turning over the aerial application part of my business to a younger generation, so hopefully I will have more time to play in the near future.

Great news! As a reminder, don't forget to make provision for your adult supervision in the transition.

Would like your email addy for the federation and would big hill group want to be affiliated with it? The Quigley committee is already all in. I think that would include Mark and Dale and you as directors at large for the federation.

This is where the rubber meets the road… The NRA could never accomplish this kind of networking.

Re: Proposed BPTR Federation and Byers News
Got the target rehung on a better frame.
Now just need to repaint with appropriate scoring rings and get some concrete blocks for the scoring pit and it should be ready for a (very small) practice match

Was hoping to make it down there and shoot up the rest of my 45-90 ammo this morning just to hear it ring, but the rain has put an end to my range work for quite a while.
