Richard, that’s a good position to be in. Sorry I didn’t get my name turned in as I never thought about it this far in advance.

It may be Kyle’s first yardage win, but it won’t be his last. No one works harder at benchrest than Kyle does. He has a lot more hours shooting at the range working up loads, testing and tuner testing than just about anyone. He definitely earned his finish. He did a great job in some trying...

Glad to hear that as that would be tough to make a LV weight rifle. It's hard to keep web sites up to date.

I cut a 60 degree bevel on an indicated bore with a boring bar on my benchrest rifles and my hunting rifles. Whether the crown is flat, 11 degrees, 15 degrees, recessed counterbore or any other configuration, I haven’t seen it make any difference. The most commonly used benchrest crown is the...

Felso Composites benchrest stock I had bought some of the Robertson Composites stocks in the past. Just looking at the specs on their benchrest stock un-inletted weight of 3 pounds 13 ounces would be pretty hard to build a LV rifle.

Nez, running it in with the carriage is pretty slick. It looks quicker than using the tail stock and gets your hands away from the chuck when changing out pieces of brass.

It’s also hard on your lathe switch. I didn’t come up with it on my own but had heard that was how Ron Hoehn was turning brass when he was alive. The way I’m doing it, the lathe spindle is never turned off until you’re finished. It takes me about 45 minutes to neck turn 100 necked up .220...

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IjEHQCjG6Yk Take a look at this one. I chuck a Pumkin neck turner in a 6 jaw chuck indicate in the mandrel and push the case onto the mandrel holding it in a floating Sinclair case holder. It takes a little less than an hour to turn a box of brass.

And not surprisingly, it looks just like what Lee said it would.

Bill, why do you think spotting scopes shouldn’t be allowed behind the firing line? Coaching is prohibited while the shooter is shooting.

I’m not sure when the one piece base was legalized in the unlimited class. It was sometime after about 1985 or so that the one piece base was legalized. Before that it had to be a separate front and rear rest. The change to the one piece base is what made the unlimited class what it is today. In...

Richard, I bet it will make it. That .291” certainly helped. Good job, Dave.

I had heard that primers were in short supply. So looked on Gunbroker a few weeks ago. When I took this screenshot the auction still had another day or so to go. The guy selling them put them on at a reasonable price at $19.99. Who’d have thought that they’d be bid up to over a dollars a primer.

I remember Red winning at the Cactus shooting his wood stocked Benchmaster in .23-40 when everyone else was shooting PPC’s. My favorite Red story was him telling about a young shooter shooting next to him and he’d shoot every time Red did. He told Red “I don’t understand, I shot when you did and...

Mullinville may not have traffic jams, but there is plenty of traffic on Hwy 54. Next to none when we turned south at Minneola heading back home on 283.

Richard, thanks for putting on the match. I appreciate all the hard work, time and graciousness to host everyone and allowing us to be there to shoot. Very much appreciated. You have a lovely place and it’s a great place to shoot. Thanks

I shot my fourth group Sunday afternoon at Raton. I set up on the bench on the second relay. There was one shooter on the first target on the frame, two empty targets, mine and another empty target. I shot my group fairly pleased with it, then noticed that there was a bullet hole on the target...
