    Club Tournament results Fairchance 18 June 2023

    In my original post I said the money match would be Friday night. What I should have said was Saturday night at about 7 pm. I have corrected my original post. TKH

    Club Tournament results Fairchance 18 June 2023

    The tournament was held yesterday, and we had great weather. The match was well run and everything went like clockwork. They have a good crew running these matches. They made everyone feel safe, welcome, and comfortable. Even served BBQ sandwich's that really hit the spot after a day at the...

    SPEC Rifles

    Although a few have had some success with Eley the last few years it hasn't been me. In my opinion the barrels that shoot the new stuff well are on the large side and have very seasoned chambers. It seems to me that the lead (bullets) in the current offerings from Eley are too hard. Too much...

    SPEC Rifles

    Whatever testing Chet may have done and what he learned from it has been lost. Wish he had shared it with others so we all could have gained from it. I heard a few of his rifles were passed on but I never heard of anyone having much success with them. Although one pays a price for being...

    SPEC Rifles

    I tried pretty hard. I heard he shot at Hagerstown. I went to a couple of matches at the Izaac Walton club there. He was never there although I did run into everyone else you mentioned. Don't know if you have ever been there but you parked at the top of the hill. There was a straight drop off...

    SPEC Rifles

    Friend Tim, I see you are invoking the Chet Amick name. There was a time I tried to run him down. I wanted to shoot with him. Well really, I wanted to shoot against him. I had heard many tales about what a shooter he was. But I could never find where he shot. Never found his name on a match...

    SPEC Rifles

    Friend Tim, We are both getting older, so I thought I had better double check my facts. Here is what I found: None of the Calfee Spec rifles were auctioned off. They were presold like Jeff has done with his Spec series. There was a lot of talk about an auction for Spec 5, but it never...

    SPEC Rifles

    Keith, Beating Spec rifles nearly became an obsession for me. I drove many miles just to compete against someone I thought would be shooting one. It made me a better shooter, but I took a bunch of whooping's in the process. TKH

    SPEC Rifles

    Tim, I think we agree that Calfee Spec rifles were not built to anyone's specifications other than Bills. But they were built for particular buyers. They certainly were not built in the same vein as builders builds spec houses. Spec houses are built to a third parties' requirement such as a...

    SPEC Rifles

    SPEC Rifles There has been a lot of talk about what a Spec rifle is and when is a Spec rifle no longer is a Spec rifle, etc. etc. What a Spec rifle is or isn't can be defined in a number of ways. But as for Calfee Spec rifles they were first called that by Jim Pepper. What exactly what he had...

    Lawrence, Mine is still the same. The spring has not lost any length or strength. I'm still shooting it without any modifications. TKH

    Ammo!

    Ammo has always been a much-discussed topic among rimfire shooters. But I don't think I've ever heard more crying about it than this past two years. Actually, back in 2014 when Eley gave up on making true quality ammo there was a lot of crying, but most moved on to Lapua and weren't too...

    Chief City Shooters IR 3-gun Pontiac, IL

    Scott, I certainly applaud your efforts to keep 3 - gun going at Chief City. Maybe we are dinosaurs and are pushing on a rope. I can’t get anyone from here to make that nearly 20 hour drive there and back so I would have to come alone. Can I get you to commit to coming to our Pa State 3 gun...

    Chief City Shooters IR 3-gun Pontiac, IL

    Scott, I can understand if one has never shot 10 shot, they can't understand how it is the most fun RFBR game. It requires the accuracy of PSL but has a much harsher scoring system. It is possible to shoot a normal IR 50/50, 250 (all 10s) and not score a single 10 shot point. Not very...

    Chief City Shooters IR 3-gun Pontiac, IL

    Scott, Sounds like you are calling me out. Before I commit, let me make sure I understand the challenge. To win I don't have to beat everybody, just you. Is that right? How about throwing in a 3 card IR 50/50 10 shot State sporter match that weekend? More points for everyone and it would add...
