At 600 yards, one click on a 1/4 moa scope is 1.5 inches on the target. sometimes not as precise an adjustment as you would like.

The die makers have continued to label their dies as 6mmBR Remington, when they are actually Norma.

Jerry, I can't say for sure if it still exists, but I'm inclined to think it isn't. Back in the day there were numerous deer camp/hunting lodges in the area and none of them are still in operation.

I heard about those prices. Gas war over in Houghton Lake. Never thought I'd be seeing gas wars again.

At the other end of the spectrum.....When gas was pushing $5 a gallon, some people were having to choose between putting gas in the car to go to work or buy groceries for the family.

Just for accuracy, the spy plane that went down in China occurred in 2001 under Bush.

Francis, keep up the fine shooting and next year you will be a shoe in for "Soy Sauce of the Year". Sorry, I don't know what came over me.

Bob, the old SP range is alive and doing well. The Iosco Sportsmens Club bought the property after the base closed. We have a variety of pistol ranges, dedicated 25,50,100,300 and a 600 yard ranges as well. The ranges are very well used with a variety of scheduled matches.

Yes indeed. We have moved our 100 yard Score matches to our East Tawas facility. Participation has been steady, but we always hope for more. Francis and Paul show up and keep us on our toes.

Well, I'm glad you asked. The winds were about as bad they get in out little town, but Rob Fairbanks and Ed Stevens showed up to show us how it's done. After dropping a point, Paul Becigneul helped club member Bill Leichtman with a problem he was having with his rifle. Those scores reflect...

Pete, I have to agree with you as I prefer the plug type as well. I have one I use for 22 rimfire, but nothing is available any longer for other calibers. The last time this discussion came up it was noted that the previous manufacturer held the patent on the plug/magnifiers and wasn't...

The temperature was mild, the sun was out and the winds were just plain being mean. Nevertheless, here are the results. VFS: Paul Becigneul. 250-18X Rob Fairbanks. 250-16X Andrew Taber. 250-15X Ed Stevens. 250-12X Francis Becigneul. 248-11X Factory class: Bob...

Matt, just had to to thank you for all the work you are doing promoting benchrest in Michigan. Keep up the fine work.

Gee Francis, I wish you got loaded, I might have a chance then :)

Alrighty Francis, I'll turn up the wind machine for you.

The Iosco Sportsmens Club, in East Tawas Michigan, will be hosting a 100 yard score match on Saturday, July 25. Gates open at 8 am, shooting starts at 10 am. Custom, Factory Modified, and Factory classes. Cost is $10. Now, where else can you have this much fun for $10?

I am shooting a 6mmBR with a .2704 neck chamber. If I use a .268 bushing with Lapua blue box brass, the bullet is barely held in place and I can move it by hand. So my bushing of choice is a Redding .267. This holds the bullet firmly and cannot be moved with finger pressure. I estimate I...

I did get an email a while ago from a friend at the club that was stuck in Nigeria and needed money. 'Cept he was at home at the time. ?

Tim, I don't know about "official" rules on flags. I just charge an extra 50 cents if you want to look at mine.

Francis, Thanks for the kind words and an enjoyable match.
