Another good day indoors. We got a few inches of snow here today, despite reaching 80 during the week.....lol. Gotta love Colorado.

Mike Niksch (HV) (1) 250 17x (2) 250 20x (3) 250 20x (Total) 750 57x Scoreline/BIPM

Joe Rocchia (HV) (1) 250 18x (2) 249 14x (3) 250 15x (Total) 749 47x Scoreline/BIPM

I shot Paul Bendix's gun that I recently finished up for him. It's set up for LV. Shot JSB 8.44's right from the tin at 795 fps. It has one of Dan's slow twist standard rifling barrels. Squeaks under the LV weight limit by 1/2 oz with the full barrel and aluminum stock.

It's a good shooter. :D

Great Shooting

Mike,

Great Shooting!

Looks like all the rest of us are going to see of Paul are his tail lights! lol Now the pressure is on Paul, you have the LV and HV rifles to beat at the Nats.

Mike,
Thanks for putting together and redesigning the Thomas with a conventional trigger on short notice. I will even get some outdoor shooting before the Nationals.
Glad you got to shoot it in a match! Was hoping you would break the 60X with it. Your 250 22X practice target before the match would have helped. Great shooting from the tin and your highest score!

Hope to meet and shoot with you soon. Thanks again for selling me one of your Masterpiece Thomas's.

JoeWillie,
Well at least we can tell our Thomas's apart mine is the Plain Jane? Your's is the Bright Blue!
Too bad the machine shop move is durning the Salem regional shoot.

Great shooting both Mike and Joe!

Now I can't wait to see, and maybe even shoot one of the new guns. Or at least have a good look at how they shoot - while eating their dust.

Mike, I've been away for the weekend so just catching up. Well done, some great scores from you and Joe.

If those Thompson’s do well at the Nationals you might have to give the day job up and go into full production, I reckon there’s going to be a big queue.
