I am sorry that the March match was cancelled, but I think it was a wise decision. It was going to be a very competitive match. Anyhow, the time has come to focus on the April match. Our weather has been yucky for a while now. It has rained all day today and the wind has blown for days so bad that the 105’s would be off the target and that…[Read more]

I hope all of you good shooters survived the weather last Saturday. I am sorry that the match was cancelled but think it was the right decision. Let’s all hope for better weather on the third Saturday in April. For those with opinions, would you rather change the May match to a 1000 yard match or leave it at 600 yards? Please respect other’s…[Read more]

It would give me piece of mind if those of you that signed up for the match would acknowledge that you have gotten the message that the March match has been canceled. Thanks, WWE

Please do not shoot the messenger but I am canceling the March Long Range Prone Match. I hope that the forecast is a bust, but as of Thursday morning the predictions are not good. Again, I am sorry but think this is the best decision. Several good shooters have already canceled so when you read this, please help spread the word. I was very…[Read more]

Tuesday night around 8:00 pm and we still have three spots available, but, the wife was just reading me a weather forecast for Friday and Saturday and at this time things are looking bad. We are still five days out so who knows. I remind everyone to please check here to keep up with anything that might change. The only way that I have of…[Read more]

We will take a maximum of twenty good shooters with four able to shoot from a bench. The benches are only for those not able to shoot prone. I think I see how we could…[Read more]

I have shot the 6mm dasher lately. Something else that I forgot is that after letting the Kroil soak in the neck, I have a 30 cal. brass brush that I spin in the throat. Seems to eliminate any type of carbon ring. Just me, WWE

Richard, lots of these fellas must be shooting dirty barrels. For me, most months Suze and I leave after the match and go to Gulf Shores. That being said, it is usually a week or so before I clean the rifle. I saturate a bore mop with Kroil and run four wet ones down the barrel and then wet the thing good and leave it in the neck for a time.…[Read more]

Wynne Echols started the topic Hearing Protection ? in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 1 year, 2 months ago
I noticed some time ago that my left ear does not hear as well as my right ear and I sure want to protect what I have. On Saturday, I wore my custom plugs and muffs together and I came home with the darndest headache. After the match, I felt like I had had a cactus stem stuck in my ears all morning. Anyone have the perfect solution. If so,…[Read more]

“Still concerned about have to come that full MOA we’ll see how that plays out next month.” Please take this for what it is worth. I shot the dasher this past Tuesday morning about 11:00 am and the dope that I used Saturday morning was up one moa + 1 click from what I had used on Tuesday, all things the same.

7:30 Friday night. There is a chance of showers tonight but hopefully the morning will be okay. I took a load to Reese Bottom this afternoon and things are as good as they can be. The water has been across the road in a place or two so watch yourself on the way in. If anything changes during the night, please check here before leaving home. WWE
