The August match at Reese Bottom will be shot from the benches on Saturday August 20, 2016. Please arrive by 8 a.m. so that we can draw for relays and hopefully be shooting by 9 a.m. We will divide the rifles into the same three divisions as usual. The course of fire will be 5 @ 200 yards; 5 @ 300 yards; 5 @ 400 yards; and 5 @ 500 yards plus…[Read more]

Just received a text from a certain Mr. White. Says his hog is bigger than my hog. Think he is right. Lot’s of B-B-Q and bacon there. Said to tell all you .223/.308 guys that he is coming for blood in August. Nice kill, WWE

Lots of good chat this week. Please keep it up. Saw this type topic somewhere else and thought we could give it a try. Was wondering if any of you good shooters had ever learned something about reloading, gun handling, wind reading, hunting, fishing, etc. from the ‘school of hard knocks’ that you would not mind sharing with other good shooters…[Read more]

It appears that David Gardner had a successful weekend shooting at the PA1000 Yard Club. They shoot 10 @ 1000 yards. I checked the results and his 5.114″ group, 99 score, won his relay. I cannot count but nine holes, so I will get him on here to tell us more. Appears the load was in tune, not much vertical. Congratulations, WWE

Hopefully the website is back up and running for all of you good shooters. The site automatically updated and I am told that one of the plug ins had a problem with the update. I have updated the ‘Home Page’, the results are on the ‘Results Page’ and there are some new photos on the ‘Photos Page’. Look around the site and remember that you can…[Read more]

Appears that Mikey300 has us back up and going. The Mrs. is gone so I will get everything updated later tonight. Been shooting at hogs all afternoon and I am fixing to go take a clorox bath. Shot 21 times at two different locations and all I brought home was a pretty picture of the moon coming up. A Tru Glo dot might be good at close range,…[Read more]

Just as reminder to all you good shooters, they are shooting the ‘World Open’ this weekend on a mountain top just out of Williamsport, PA. Follow the results at http://www.pa1000yard.com. Look for Dave Burkart, Allen Shively, and David Gardner who all forum members. The hosting club claims to be the oldest in the country and they always attract many of…[Read more]

I guess that I do to much reading. Ran across this info on another website. What do you think?

.223 Rem — Not A Competitive Option
I would stay away from the .223 Remington. On paper the 90gr VLD will shoot inside most .308 Win loads even at a 1000 yards. But in reality, on average, the .223 Rem, regardless of what powder/bullet combo is u…[Read more]

Good to hear from you two good shooters. Dave, not going to make the trip this year. Are you doing anything special in preparation for the ‘World Open’ And Mr. Barr, if you are not going to shoot any this year, will you please tell us what is going on with the yacht. I personally wish that you and Mr. Webb would show back up and take away some…[Read more]

Okay good shooters, we have all enjoyed the holiday weekend and it is now time to start getting ready for the bench rest match at Reese Bottom on the 16th of July.
