ARC 100 yd Score Match 23 Shooters - 18 VFS, 5 Factory Favorable conditions today for our 7th Annual Watermelon Match. Good scores were posted with the breeze barely reaching double digits. Partly cloudy with temps in the low 80's at the 10 am start time. With 13 of the 18 VFS guns staying...

The Frankford Arsenal case remover in Brownells video above is pretty slick. It makes it look too easy. Either that is a Magical tool or that case isn't stuck as in REALLY STUCK.

Good question, Hunter. I dunno. In my situation , the case head/rim was ripped off when trying to back the stuck case out. As I stated.....expander ball and decap pin still attached to threaded stem and was inside case which was stuck inside the die. This prevented me from using a "stuck case...

Problem solved....a few minutes under the propane torch expanded die body enuf to let go of the case.

I have managed to get a 300 BLK case STUCK in the RCBS resizing die. Really stuck. I can not tap the cartridge case to back it out with bolt cause the expander ball and decap pin are inside the case. Now, not too much of case head left after torquing with vise grips. Put some Kroil and then...

ARC - 100 yd Match for Score 21 Shooters - 15 VFS, 6 Factory Our summer match start time of 10am helped avoid the heat of the day but did nothing to keep the 10-20 SE wind (with gusts) at bay. And the wind took some tolls today. Good competition for the 6 Factory guns today. 1st place goes to...

ARC 100 yd Match for Score - Club Match 14 Shooters - 11 VFS, 3 Factory Smaller crowd today with other matches held in the area. I see it as a good thing for shooting competitors to have that choice to contest their skills. Fairly cloudy today with an above average velocity breeze out of the...

ARC 100 yd Score 18 Shooters - 16 VFS, 2 Factory Good to Great conditions to compete with only a slight breeze today. Rain in Match5 but still had 9 of 18 scores clean. Larry Kochanowicz stays in the top spot for the 3rd month in a row. This time he ties the club record (again) with a 250-23X...

ARC 100 yd Match for Score 19 Shooters - 13 VFS, 2 Hunter, 4 Factory Weather cleared up after a few days of freezes. North wind blew the early cloud cover out and temps in the 50's faded quickly yielding acceptable conditions for shooting. The Factory/Modified class was won by Jon Aronson with...

ARC 100yd Match for Score 19 Shooters - 15 VFS, 4 Factory/Modified Cold North wind was in yo face dipping wind chill to low 40's. Light rain all morning stopped just before our noon start. Heavy jackets and hoodies the fashion today. Factory guns had it tough today but Paul Shanklin gets 1st...

1. Registration is $15. optional BTK is $1 per target. Optional but everyone plays. Per each class of shooters I payout approx 40-50% of that class' registration to top 3: 1st, 2nd, 3rd scores of agg. 30,20,10 ; 15,10,5 etc 2. Top 3 payout is for agg score/winners. BTK , Best Target Kitty...

Correction....NBRSA does recognize wipeouts in the case of a complete agg tie, i.e. multiple 250-25X scores.

Yes, payout to top 3 in each class. Another factor that attracts shooters. We got a Best Target Kitty also. Which is totally diff from the agg tie breaker (Creedmoor). If there is a Best Target tie for a match target (matches 1-5) then we use wipeouts as tie breaker. NBRSA rules don't recognize...

Sorry for delayed response....was out exercising my 2nd A Right. Yes, Mr Stanley is right on. Gotta put that paid notation down lest I forget and a quarrel starts. Facebook seems to be getting a lot of interest. As stated, got responses thru chats, groups etc from all around central Texas. I...
