Hi all.
On May 1st and 2nd, 2021, Tacoma Rifle and Revolver Club held their 2nd match of the year. This contest determined the winner of the Manley Oakley trophy. We had 16 shooters on Saturday, and 18 on Sunday. Pdf with match results, SOTY update and group photo attached.
Saturday brought us a cool morning with some tricky wind conditions. The sun really never came out and the chill stayed with us all day. We began with our Sporter class at 100 yards on Saturday morning which was won by Mustafa Bilal with a .2262" agg.
That afternoon at 200, the wind continued to play tricks, but new shooter Jeff Crose showed us all how it's done, taking the 200 yd agg. (.2323"). Jeff Crose shot the best overall for the day winning the Sporter grand aggregate (.2486")
Sunday brought mild weather and the light wind played a role in group sizes.We shot the Heavy Varmint class at 200 yards in the morning. Jeff Lewis shot a .2499" agg. to win the yardage. At 100 yards in the afternoon, Larry Boers took the yardage with a .2288" agg. Jeff Lewis shot the best overall for the day and won the HV grand aggregate with a .2450" agg.
Mustafa Bilal kept his rifle rock steady and brought home the trophy once again, winning the Manley Oakley 2 gun trophy with a .2537" agg. Congratulations Mustafa! Manley Oakley would be proud!
Small group awards go to:
Mustafa Bilal - Sporter 100 .102"
Steve Kostanich - Sporter 200 .283"
John Chang - HV100 .135"
Jim Lynn - HV200 .214"
Match winners :

Of special note:
Nice to have shooting with us Bill Rice, a veteran shooter, who decided to get back to the sport he once loved. A couple of our shooters helped him get off to a good start. We all thank you. We are also happy to have Rich Daniels back shooting with us again.
Thank you to Geoff Hallett, Craig Kensler and Cai Warner for doing a fine job running our Range, Stats, and Target crew.
We all thank you!
Dan Kjelland has compiled the SOTY( Shooter of the Year) points to date. That list is also attached. Thank you Dan!
Thank you to those who attended, we had a great weekend, We will see you next month for Heavy Varmint on Saturday, plus bring out the rail guns for 5 shot Unlimited on Sunday! Bag gun shooters are welcome and have in recent years been very successful in the 5 shot matches.
Looking forward to see you there!
