Another Great Sniper King Shoot!
We always look forward to this one, and it was another great Sniper King shoot with lots of fancy shootin going on, and to top it off an excellent barbeque on Saturday evening! (the highlight for me was the 20 lbs of Copper River Sockeye that Floyd Middlebrook brought in!) Really great to have all the out of towners travel so far to come shoot with us and take a crack at winning the oldest trophy in Benchrest. I know Walt Berger had wanted to make this shoot for many years and it was really good to see him finally make it up here. And, for the first time in the 69 year history of the Sniper King, since 1944, we ended up with a tie! King Gary and King Larry! How about that!
