My dad, Bill Dittman passed away August 6th at the age of 86. He grew up in Northern Pennsylvania and as a kid, hung out in the Taylor and Robbins gun shop in Eldred, PA. He and I have been shooting Benchrest together for over 25 years. For those who may not know, dad was a research engineer...

The sentence about " I agree to abide by any and all decisions made by the referees or range officers." Does this mean we are doing away with the formal written protest rule as stated in the rulebook section 7 of Tournament Procedures? I have been caught up in this written protest rule...

Due to a pesky printer problem we could not print out results for the match so this is the next best thing. Thanks Scott

Bill Dittman Won the August Riverbend Gun Club Score match with a Score of 500-35X! Weather was good - pretty breezy and then about 2pm the sun came on full bore and tried to cook us all. But it was a great day of shooting with some great company. We shot 200 yards first - mirage was slight -...

We had 13 lucky shooter for our June Score match. Weather was HOT. The wind was mild, or at least it seemed, as it was so hot that only a good 20mph breeze could have made it bearable. We shot 200 yards first, as is our custom. We had 7 shoots stay clean through the yardage. As I said, the...

We had nine shooters show for the April Score Benchrest Match at River Bend Gun Club. The weather was about as good as it gets in Georgia. Highs in the upper 70's, sunny, breezy, and a wonderful thin coat of yellow pine pollen. It is like wearing the yellow shooting glasses all the time. We...

I decided to try something a little different than a report of what happened and who won.

Well - Claire and Sarah have moved up in ranks again. Claire started about 4 years ago with a state win in Archery and a trip to NASP Nationals. We tried to find a nearby Archery competition but all we could find was a county 4H BB Gun team. Sarah joined in and the two joined the team. Both...

The 2010 River Bend Shooter of the Year trophy has been awarded to Wayne Hunt. Wayne won Production class in every match this season, except for one where he finished second. Wayne shoots a Savage LRPV in 6 Norma BR, the rifle is pretty much stock, out of the box. Congratulation Wayne on a...

This past Saturday was our October Score match. We had beautiful weather for the 8 shooters who came out to shoot. Wind was switchy, but never too strong; mirage was bad. I think the dry weather (dead Grass) seems to make the mirage the worse I have seen - even when the wind would blow. We...

Does anybody know how to get in touch with Farley Manufacturing? I have tried the number 405-732-7852 from their website for the last couple of days and it is busy 24-7 (even late at night). I have a older Firefly and need to replace a broken extractor. Any ideas?

Weather was cool a little wet and humid and the wind was testing. Looks like Autumn has arrived. We had only 11 shooters come for the match, which is somewhat normal, as deer season has gotten into swing here in Georgia. Some guys would rather relax out in the woods waiting for Bambie to walk...

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...

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...

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...

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...

If you didn't come to today's match at Riverbend, the first match of the year, you missed out. Actually you missed out on a cold, wet, windy match. I think we all spent more time in the scoring room trying to stay warm, than we did shooting. The first match of the year makes me think of what...
