    River Bend Shooter of the Year.

    No, production class and factory class are the same thing. You can change the trigger, bed the action, and a few other mods but basically stock parts. Wayne's gun has nothing - not even bedded. SOY for our club is based on points (4 for 1st place,3 for second place etc.) This year we decided...

    River Bend Shooter of the Year.

    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...

    Riverbend Gun Club October Score Match Results

    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...

    Nightforce Warranty Problems

    Just sent one off a couple of months ago. It did take several weeks for them to get to it. Bad part is when it came back. Just the scope in the box. No note or anything saying what, if anything, was fixed. I put it back on the rifle for one match - now i am back to my Leopold 45x. I'm not...

    Farley

    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?

    Metal Mayhem 30BR Nearly Done

    Oh - she performs just fine. The scores don't show it - but this match was shot in 20 mph swirling switching wind. Wind blowing target boards down and never could get all the flags to show the same direction. That rifle is just cool, and it shot crazy good. Yet, we all know that in wind like...

    Measure targets on the wailing wall?

    There is no way it's "poor sportsmanship". I have scored probably tens of thousands of targets. There is no way that they are all correct. I try hard to do them all correct - but its impossible. Sometimes you look at the calipers and it says .230 and you write on the target .320. Sometimes...

    Can Anyone Identify This Cartridge?

    Was it really called a 25 Bacon & Bliss ? In the modern age we are obviously lacking in our cartridge naming skills.

    just getting into benchrest

    Ron Hoehn is where you buy your brass. You can buy it raw or neck turned. You will need to know the neck diameter dimension of your chamber. http://www.benchrest.com/hoehn/ If you want to turn your own - just tell Ron when you call and he can set you up with everything you will need. Ron is...

    Motel for match at Riverbend.......

    http://www.comfortinn.com/hotel-canton-georgia-GA271?sid=Ip0nM.5cmShgFYm.1 supposedly pet friendly - I would call first. I would also check out some online reviews to make sure it is Mom friendly too. Canton, GA is pretty close (30 minutes) lots of hotels/motels, lots of food places etc.

    answer me this

    This is Benchrest ....the "real world" doesn't apply here. ( nor do things like "conventional wisdom", and "under normal conditions") Not trying to be smart here, but when 1st and 2nd place are separated by .0005", if you think adjusting something base on humidity will help ...then you adjust...

    Riverbend October Score Match

    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...
