This is another one of those subjects that if you posted on some of the gun sites that site would explode with replies and most of them would be different but posting on this site we mite only get 3 replies but I would value those 3 over the 200 or more on other sites!

Richard Slaton started the topic Annealing in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 3 years, 6 months ago
Well it’s the end of the shooting season so it’s time to deep clean my stuff, anneal and trim brass among other stuff. I don’t spend much time on shooting forums other than Reese Bottom why Because you could ask what color brown is and you would get 50 different answers and all kinda debates and would leave more confused than when you start…[Read more]

Richard Slaton started the topic Nov. match report in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 3 years, 7 months ago
Normally I set a goal to have fun at RB but I don’t have to set that as a goal anymore because it’s automatic, the shooters at Reece bottom except me for who I am and what I shoot and is fully made up with “my people”. Win, lose or draw always leave with the same smile on my face that I came with. The hardest goal I have each month is making…[Read more]

Wow after seeing the scores from Saturday’s match I felt like I was at the world championship, they were some shooters on fire. When I left home Saturday morning headed to pick up John, I felt like I could fulfill Mr. Wynne’s “what’s expected”. I was on the first relay and my first relay score was 199 11X that I was very happy with then I sat bac…[Read more]

Richard Slaton started the topic September match report in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 3 years, 9 months ago
As I stated Saturday I always set a goal for the match this month I set two, The first goal was to shoot in the 190’s in both 1K Relays
Accomplish that by shooting a 191 and 192 my second goal was not shoot an 8 in either relay but I shot one 8 in both relays so I didn’t reach that goal.
One goal that I do have each month is to leave with the sam…[Read more] -

Richard Slaton started the topic To clean or ro clean in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 3 years, 9 months ago
Last Saturday at the team match me and Mr. Allen got a chance to share our thoughts on a couple subjects. he open the door by asking me if I clean my barrel in between relays and I told him no that I felt like my gun shot a little better dirty he told me that he did and because I value his opinion I might try at a future match. then I ask him his…[Read more]

Aug team match
To me Saturday was a fun day I enjoyed shooting the team matches a couple of times a year it gives me a chance to not only learn but get to know that person but also share ideals which I think is what Mr. Wynne is hoping for. I was excited when I learned that I would be shooting with Mr. Allen. He brings a lot to the table…[Read more]

The “ committee” did a fine job, anybody’s game. My ugly duckling paired with best looking rig at RB
I’m excited. Safe trip to all -
Richard Slaton replied to the topic August at Reese Bottom in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 3 years, 10 months ago
Mr. Wynne if it ends up a odd number I can do one of two things to make it easier on you (and make sure you all others gets to shoot) I can skip shooting this match or I can shoot all 60 shots as a one man team
What ever to help

I just ordered some 450 primers from mid south shooter supply
It took my order and said they had more?
I think that was only primers it said they had, just in any of y’all are looking. $95 but that seams the new norm
