Wanted to let everyone know that this season's IBS dates have been approved, and that we are looking forward to our first matches coming up on May 30 (1000yd) & 31 (600yd). My time has been focused on the necessary work on the range, and still haven't finished the website. Especially since this is our first match, we're needing a headcount of those planning to attend so that we can be better prepared for match layout and the amount of food that should be prepared. Please RSVP by sending me an email to robert@midwestbenchrest.com and I will respond with information about the match. Looking forward to having a great match!

Range is located between Willow Springs and Houston off of Hwy 137, on Evans Road east of 137. The address is: 19420 Evans Road, Yukon, MO 65589
With my gps gets me on evans road but you have to go on another mile or two down evans road to where it makes a 90 degree turn to the left, Roberts driveway continues straight from that corner.( 3 trees down, 2 cows left, 1 goat straight) not that hard to find.


Thought this might help!

In addition to the questions on this post, I will answer several of the questions that I have received via email:

Address of the range is :
19420 Evans Road
Yukon, MO 65589

Here is a link which will take you to google maps, so that you only have to enter your starting location. Mike E. is correct, if using a GPS, the geocoding for the area is not "spot on" but will get you close. From highway 137, the range is a bit farther than the GPS thinks it should be according to the address, and is 1.25 miles east of the highway down Evans Road, and on the right (first mailbox/driveway on right, no other houses along this road).

1000 yard matches 1 & 2 will be on Saturday, May 30.
600yd match 1 will be on Sunday, May 31.

Remaining matches are listed on the IBS Long Range Schedule and are:
June 20 & 21, July 18 & 19, August 22 & 23, with Missouri State Championships on October 3 & 4.

Friday will be a practice day, and the range will be available from 12:00-5:00 p.m.

Depending on the number of shooters, relays may be broken up to allow more individuals an opportunity at the shoot off.

Classes will conform to IBS rules, and will consist of Light gun and Heavy gun. Factory class will shoot in match 1 (morning) and match 2 (afternoon).

Match fees:
One class = $60
Two classes = $75
Three classes = $80
Factory only = $50
Club Membership is $50

The match will begin at 10:00a.m. Sight in will be allowed from 7:00a.m to 9:00 a.m. Registration ends at 9:30 a.m.

We're still trying to get a handle on exactly how many people to be prepared for, so if you haven't called or emailed me, please do so; or risk going hungry....:D

Thanks,

Robert Ross
