Hi Bob, Thanks for the info! Congratulations Don on some great shooting! It hard to believe that Howie hasn't shot at Kane before. I hope to see you and the rest of the gang at Mainville in a couple of weeks. Bill McIntyre

Hi, I wasn't able to make the match this year, that four letter word "work" got in the way! Does anyone have the results of the match? Thanks in advance! Bill McIntyre

Hi Kent, I sent you and email. Thanks, Bill

Packing List Hi Kent, I had copied this list quite a few years ago! Hope this helps! Posted By: Bart <mailto:The6ppc@aol.com?subject=Benchrest Packing List> (64.12.107.168) Date: Friday, 5 July 2002, at 6:10 p.m. My check list! Guys for what its worth I drag 4 boxes to the range and have...

Hi Russ, I read on page 23 of the April NBRSA publication a paragraph that stated Camillus Club was joining the Eastern Region of the NBRSA. It seems odd that they would join and then the club would cancel benchrest matches. Bill McIntyre

Jack, Thanks for the recap. It was my first time to the hog roast but it won't be my last. All the folks involved did a fantastic job. I wanted to get some experience at the range before the nationals and boy did I. The wind made things interesting to say the least. It was good seeing old...

Hi Russ, I see that your 200 yard 5 shot .096 Unlimited Group made it into the IBS records! The group looked real small in person and I am glad that it held up through the record committee's scrutiny. Couldn't happen to a nicer person and I hope you will still associate with us lesser folks...

Hi Russell, I too have noticed attendance going down in the registered group matches. That was what prompted me to have those tee shirts made to help the match directors defray their costs. At some point, it makes no sense for them to even conduct a registered match if attendance fees won't...

Congratulations to Al and if I recall correctly, Russ you shot a possible world record in the Heavy Bench 200. It was an .08 something! Not too shabby! I shot between Bob Bushingham on my left and Al on my right. Both did quite well at the match. Al and Bob shared some of their luck with...

Thanks to everyone for expressing their interest in the tee shirts! Mike in CO, if we have any left over I will see that one makes it your way. Besides bringing the shirts, I have been asked NOT to lend any gun powder to the good Mr. Baker. The folks tell me that if Harley doesn't have the...

I am donating 40 pocketed tee shirts which will be sold by various Match Directors to help defray some of their expense of running a benchrest match. The selling price is $15.00 and $4.00 dollars of the proceeds will be given back to the IBS and the balance to be used by the match director to...

Congratulations Barney! I was starting to get tired of say "nice group Barney after every target"! Thanks again to Bob White, Edna and Adrian for running a great match! Hal D forgot to mention he won the Harley Backer Challenge! We had to shoot one shot at a rubber washer at 200 yards and he...

Hal, Thanks for the update on Mainville. I was going to be calling Bob White and ask him the same question about the unlimited being a 5 or 10 shot event. I got some pointers from Harley on shooting a rail gun at one of the Central Jersey Winter League matches so I am looking forward to...

Hi Kent, The competition forum only goes back to 2009. The centerfire benchrest goes back for those posts prior to 2009. I did a search yesterday and have posts from 2008 displayed on the centerfire benchrest forum. Some of the other forums later on as well. Bill McIntyre

Hi, This was an IBS sanctioned match. Bill McIntyre

Hi Paul, Thanks for the congratulations. I think the person you needed to bump into was Mr. Harley Baker. Like Frosty the snowman, there must have been some magic in the old straw hat he found! (He surely didn't buy that hat did he???) There was some talk that if this match was held in...

Hi, I was using a Borden built 6PPC. The load was a relatively light one of 28 grains of N133 2009 lot and Frank Marks flat base bullets. The flags indicated a good condition to start shooting and I ran the five shots. I kept shooting and the hole didn't seem to get any bigger. I would like...

Although the match is a month away, I noticed that there is a NASCAR event in the Poconos that same weekend. That usually means that all of the hotels and motels will be booked. I was able to book a room at the Super 8 and they still have rooms available. If you are planning to attend, you...

IBS Message. I spoke with Dale Boop yesterday and there are around 100 shooters scheduled to attend the Nationals. Jeff, I read your message and you are doing a fantastic job. I was not quite sure of meaning of some of the words in your message so I asked my wife if she knew what a titular...

Dear Bob and Edna, We are praying for a speedy recovery. Get well soon! Bill and Patty McIntyre
