Hi Tom, Wawarsing is once again holding matches. Bob Griffin joined the club and has been running the matches for this year. Bob also runs the matches at the Wallkill Club. If you are interested in possibly running the matches in the future or just interested in 22 rimfire benchrest, I would...

I won't be available to defend my 3 gun title and go for the 4-peat. I'll be in Greece spreading around my greenbacks and eating food that I know I can't pronounce.

Congrats Chris, I'm guessing you had the correct glasses on this weekend. That record will stand for awhile. I'm thinking more and more that lots of shooters gave up on those cut-rifled barrels too soon. Wonder what the WLM will have to say about that????

Anything that shoots well is a good place to start. From the photo, it doesn't look as if your rifle will accept a barrel tuner aka muzzle device (which everyone uses). If you really want to compete in this sport though, I would get a purpose built benchrest rifle. You should buy either a...

Sure it's worth a try. It will have an impact on the vibration pattern of the barrel. I would get the extra weights, with such a short stiff barrel they might be needed.

Bob Griffin took over as match director and saved the day. Here is the IR50/50 schedule link. http://www.ir5050.com/schedule/

What's Gary putting on his sporter barrel for vibration dampening this year since he learned last year that painter's tape wasn't allowed? Has he switched to electrical tape?

I use a 6X Burris and love the dang thing. I hold center a lot and did plenty of it last Sat. at Wawarsing when it was pretty calm. I really like having 1/8" adjustments (1/16" at 50 yrds). A scope is an aiming device isn't it? The more precise, the better I like it. If they made one with...

Hi Bob. I can make this match. See you Sat.

I support the rule change. It was always kinda funny to have the guns off the bench rule for safety then see them pointing every which way as they were taken off the bench to be cleaned, which was ok.

Bob, I won't be able to make either match this weekend.

I guess Pete was expecting the second coming at the conclusion of this event with a divine revelation. This was a well hyped match and in the end it was a high level match which was won by a shooter who is well experienced with all three games. (Congrats Todd). The thing that all the...

I'll be there Bob.

Bob Griffin is the new match director for Wawarsing Rod and Gun Club and Wawarsing will hold IR50/50 matches this season. I expect the match schedule for this season will be posted soon on the IR50/50 site once everything has been finalized. Thanks Bob for joining the Wawarsing Club and taking...

My band has a gig on Sat pm so I won't make it.

Todd, you started shooting with us at our unsanctioned matches, and those are still being held at Wawarsing. The people who run and shoot at these "barnyard" matches apparently have no interest in also running or shooting at the sanctioned matches. It is sad to see Wawarsing go away from...

It was my pleasure Mike. Wawarsing is a great place to shoot. Unfortunately, I am the last club member still shooting sanctioned benchrest matches. I knew it was very likely over for BR at Wawarsing whenever I decided to move on. I've learned that, for me, it's best to diversify and spend time...

Due to travel plans and other commitments, I won't be able to run IR50/50 matches this year at the Wawarsing Rod and Gun Club in Wawarsing NY. So far, no one else from the club has stepped forward to volunteer to run these matches. It doesn't look good for sanctioned BR rimfire matches at...

Great job Tony! Clearly explained for any beginners to rimfire benchrest in general or to IR50/50 specifically.
