Wynne Echols replied to the topic Trick or Treat!! October Mid Range Prone Match in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 6 years, 2 months ago
David, not trying to create an issue here, but brakes are not allowed when we shoot prone. Shooters are very close together at Reese Bottom and it is not fair to shooters next to the brake. We allowed it once and it did not work out well. We have had several people in the past to unscrew the brake for a match. Another option would be to shoot…[Read more]

David, the weather app says 73* with a 40% chance of rain. That’s all we have to go on. This is a different type match than the last time you were here. Prone shooting and no muzzle brakes. Those not able to shoot prone can shoot from a bench. If you are shooting, I would like to know the caliber rifle so that I can have the computer ready…[Read more]

Well, I am running behind but should have things posted now. Great to see such a good turnout for the match yesterday. Twenty three guns entered with three first time shooters.

Construction was completed this week on the new Reese Bottom Lane. While we were at it, we added a couple of extra features. Those familiar with the bottom should recognize things. Click to enlarge. For those planning to attend the match on the 21st, load a half dozen or so extras. Might have a little surprise but don’t hold me to it. WWE

I have dug into the Shotmarker archives and found the stored information and a photo of the third target shot and the Saturday August 17, 2019 Reese Bottom Mid Range Prone Match. I was shooting FTR[.223] with a new 30″ Brux 6.5 twist barrel, fire forming new Lapua brass, Wolf primers, and Sierra 90 grain bullet jumped .010. Earlier in the week I…[Read more]

Forgive me, I am a day late. Thanks to all of you good shooters that made the August 2019 Mid Range Prone Match a big success. We had 19 shooters in the two divisions. The newly barreled .223 obviously did not scare off any FTR shooters. My feelings were hurt by all of the jokes made about the size of that thing. Listen, back in school, there…[Read more]

Crossed paths with Don Lewis this morning at Reese Bottom. He was telling me that Doug Pugh has been helping him tighten up the old .308. I have decided on a load for the new Brux barrel on the .223. The barrel is a 1 X 6.5 twist 30″ long 1.25″ straight. It is a hulk of stainless but seems to set up well. Settled on lapua brass, 24.5 gn…[Read more]

Michael Claunch and I spent the morning shooting at Reese Bottom. We determined that the new shed creates shade but it is not an air conditioner. I was trying to work up a load for the new Brux 6.5 twist 30″, 1.25″ straight .223 barrel. The first lesson learned was that at no time will scales be allowed at Reese Bottom. Probably would take a…[Read more]
