Ernie Hi Pete.....As you know I spent a lot of time with Ernie. We had a lot of good laughs. I really enjoyed shooting with Ernie. He will be sorely missed. A sad day for sure. Doug

Two big reasons why you will never get the numbers back up for shooting the rimfire games....... Is aging and it's affects, and buying ammo. It is one thing to buy ammo, but to find the really good stuff is a never ending (costly) endeavor. Too many shooters can't afford to do it. Changing the...

Yesterday we shot 2 3 gun IR5050 matches at Gopher Campfire gun club in Hutchinson, MN. Our match director is Travis Beste. He has a extremely great shooting sporter, and used it for every event. While doing so Travis shot 4 250's consecutively. On the 5th (card) using it in the 101/2 lb match...

Google Brian@shootlong gun cases. They are a soft case. Fits my 5" wide hammerhead 30" barreled 6 Dasher, and has a large side pocket. Best I have found. about 100.00. DJB

baffle system I have built 4 different baffle systems which connect to my shooting shack. What I quickly learned is that if you build small tunnels to shoot through you will not be happy with all your hard work. It would be better to build something like 6 to 8 ft tall and 4 to 6 feet wide...

Looking forward to seeing you all again……With 16 benches, we have never needed a second relay while shooting our rimfire matches. The benches are covered. You do not have to stop at the club house. Come directly down to the BR range, and I will collect the fees needed to shoot. See you all...

the wind is your friend Joe…... I was always told that Fl is mostly windless during the summer, and windy during the winter months. It is so true. I guess that was why the Manatee NBRSA matches were called the Winds of the Manatee. There is no better place to learn how to shoot in the wind then...

We shot our IR5050 match today, and it was a windy one at 15-30+ and very switchy. One of those days when you pull the trigger and hope it is somewhere near where you wanted it. We had a high temp of 86 degrees. Sporter Doug Bell……….247-8 Pete Wass……..246-13 Joe Tuturro……240-6 Sherman...

I want to thank you for all your hard work to keep the site up to date, and everything else that you have to do. It can be a thankless job, and I want you to...

7.8 lbs means trouble I have a sporter that is a little more then 1 OZ lighter then the 7lb.8oz max wt allowed. I have 5 wt stickers on the butt-plate of the rifle. Why? To show everyone that scales do not always wt the same. Of the 5 weight-in's from 5 different clubs, none were the same...
