I have heard those faries are indigenous to the upstate NY area. So the rest of us, just use the grass, trees, surveyor's tape or whatever else the wind blows. Tim, we all well understand that good equipment makes for great learning experience and is the best way to learn the sport, to get to...

Sewing with Doug So 240 for a rest and 260 for a sewing machine? Sounds like a plan. :p Just kidding. I have shot off the bi-pods in a field, a chicken barn, a turkey barn.... and lots of other places, guess it just depends on what your use to. Last trip to Piney Hill netted me 17th out of 57...

I am not one to scare a new shooter away from this sport, sure all the high end equipment will help, but certainly not necessary to shoot at a local level. On a 1000.00 budget, a 500.00 rest don't leave much for a rifle, however Whittaker's is having a SALE on CZ452 Americans for 329.00...

First one Will be at The Barn in Aquadale NC. March 28th @ 9am. IR 50 then ARA the same day. This should be a great event. George

Just my opinion but... Personally I would disagree with you. I have 3 Ds and a E, all of which like good ammo, like Eley Match and one even likes Lapua CX and Midas+ as well. Feeding a 52 sub par ammo, will just about always render sub par results. Also shooting off Bi-Pods are not a...

? Is that a total surprise to you? Hall is a good action, I would not be surprised at all. Its not the most popular action on the market, but its conceivable that a 250 can be shot with one. I have seen 250s shot with several rifles that were not popular at major matches. Several were target...

Been there and still doing it Rod, I am an occasional BR shooter. I use mainly 52D Winchesters. I mainly shoot indoors during the Winter months, due to work load during the Summer months, I just shoot local matches. If you are planning on jumping in with the ARA / IR shooters, your rifle is...

Thank you Wayne, I see you have posted the IR50/50 schedule for 2015. I for one would like to thank you for doing that. http://www.ir5050.com/schedule Thanks again George

Welcome BRC, Great advice, Bob has lot of experience and knows the rules. Some local BR matches limit the amount of scope, rifle, rest and ammo, to present a level playing field. Also look and see what others are using for rifles, if they are using Remington 40X and Anschutz 54s your most...

Goals Vs FUN Goals are good to have, I set them myself. My goal is to shoot a 750 at a 3 card IR match. I have gotten within 3 points a couple of times, so it is do-able. But if it got to be an obsession, rather than fun trying, I think I would give up on that idea. I do not shoot enough IR or...

Questions & Suggestions Hi Wayne, When will the 2015 match schedule be on the IR50/50 website? Would it be possible to list street addresses of the venues? Reason for asking is, some of us that have to plan in advance in order to attend the matches. The idea of providing a street address is...

This is what we do I shoot with a group of people almost every week. The rules we use are, the action and the barrel must be OEM, Remington, Anschutz, Winchester...... no tuners, no mechanical rest. Bi-pods and sand bags only. Anything else goes, triggers, scopes, ammo, bedded stocks...

60/180 Wayne, How will the 60 be chosen? First come first serve ? If so count me in. Drawing ? Invitation ? I am sure some will want to know for planning purposes, while others will want to know if there is any point of being there early. George

You can learn form anything. Wilbur, I will agree that shooting a bum rifle won't get you far, but it will teach you something. When I started 5 years ago, I had a H&R M12, shooting USBR cards. A 225 - 235 was about average for me, even managed a 240 once. Then a friend of mine let me shoot...

Takes both Bill, I find it takes a good amount of both. I am no top shooter by any means. I still use a factory rifle and bi-pods. My personal best has been a 250-21X with scores usually in the 247-250 range with Xs in the high teens. I like watching good shooters work. Some like you, touch...

Great shooting Joe, That is some great shooting, we use this card in our matches, as a bonus card toward the end of the regular match. We shoot them with OEM target rifles 40X, Annies Win 52s. Our scores on average are nothing better than you have posted here. Once in awhile somebody will get...

Alternative http://www.killoughshootingsports.com/index.php/bkl-254-4-long-cantilever-with-1-5-8-clamping-length.html I have used these on the older Annies, seemed to work great. George

Trigger I am not familiar with the trigger on a 75, but the 52's and others like Kimber 82Gs, you can move the fulcrum pin up higher on the trigger, lowering the pull weight substantially. However it will induce more creep into the trigger. Talk it over with your gunsmith, it takes a really...
