Weather was wonderful - conditions were fair. 15 Shooters showed for the event and enjoyed the nice weather. The wind seemed very light - but as you can tell from the scores it was tough. Here are the results. 200 yards 1st place Brady Knight .2458 2nd place Roger Avery .2475 3rd place...

Congratulation Jim! I first met Jim several years ago when he was a newbie. He sure has come a long way in a short time. And on top of that, Jim is one of the nicest guys out there, a true southern gentleman. Scott

Congratulations to Francis and Greg! Great shooting as always.

I figured this out once myself........cheat. Use inside corner blocks like these http://www.hoganhardwoods.com/hogan/pages/products/02_Moulding/cb_02.htm looks like this then all the cuts on the molding are straight cut. Convince the GF that it is a decorative addition to the molding - and...

How about Bill Dittman (Dad) and his 25X....first 25 ever shot at Riverbend! So that should catch us up to "TEAM X"? Nope - they are still 2 x's ahead. Thats pretty incredible that after three rounds, there are two teams (4man) that are within 2X's of each other. Guess I'm gonna have to...

Riverbend Well here is my take. Benches 15-20 are considered the good benches. There is a berm down the side and then from 100 to 200 yards the range is cut into a mountain side, at 200 yards the 15-20 bench targets are in a corner with 20foot+ high walls on two sides. I hate benches 15-20...

Saturday was our monthly match, this one was a group match. We had another great turnout with 15 shooters including 5 Factory/Modified shooters. The weather was great - not too hot and wind was mild and reliable. We shot 200 yard targets 1st. Wes Burke took the lead after the first couple of...

I'll have to disagree with the moving backer thing. Riverbend holds club matches and even though we have a moving backer system - we don't go through the trouble to use it at club matches. It takes too many people to run it, and too long to set up. I have never in 10 years of shooting group...

Thanks guys. I want to call out Wayne Hunt shooting a 50-5x on his last target with an out of the box, stock, Savage in 6BR. And Dan McEvoy tried to match it, shooting back to back 50-4x's also with a stock factory rifle in .308. I offered to buy both rifles....no takers.

Thank You Mr Rabin.

My name is Claire Dittman. I am twelve years old and am currently a member of The Walton County S.A.F.E BB gun team. My team has earned a bid to attend the International BB Gun Championship Match this July in Kentucky. Our seven shooter team competed against over 80 teams from across state to...

OK Do half black bulls / half white bulls. that way nether large nor small calibers have an advantage.

Strategy, My first thought would be to put one shot on each of the "1"'s and then sit and wait. I think 30 minutes is too long...everyone will wait until the last minute anyway. Of course someone will get chancy and shoot ahead - but....everyone else will still wait. I.E. everyone shoots...

Here is the match report. http://benchrest.com/forums/showthread.php?p=504729#post504729

River Bend held its monthly match this past Saturday the 9th. The weather was fantastic, about 80F, partly cloudy, light breeze; a perfect day to be out on the range. We managed 11 shooters this month, being Mothers Day weekend many of the regulars were missing. Our production class really...

Thanks Dave - I will see you Saturday. The only problem with smallbore is that practice time becomes an issue - With air rifle we practice in the basement. I assure you - Sarah has been given every opportunity to continue shooting - CMP 3 position, 4-H 22 rifle team, 4-h precision air-rifle...

no jackets or gloves. Everyone shoots the same equipment so as not to become an equipment race. Don't ask how I know - but you are also not allowed spray "stickum" on your clothes or body. Claire really got dialed in the last 6 weeks at one point shooting a 98 out of 100 in prone (hitting a...

UPdate!! Well after 6 hours of practice every week for four months - Claire's Team finished 5th in State out of about 40 teams. sorry the picture is fuzzy - Claire ended up ranked 2nd in the county, and both girls shot very well in State for first year shooters. As you can see- this team is...

Congratulations Mr. Rivers - fine shooting. as usual.

crb is right. You might watch mostly your flags. But, if you are not watching all of the field you are missing out. Remember you are looking for a "condition". And i have shot matches where I relied more on my neighbors flags than my own. Also in bigger matches you will have to share benches...
