Today was my first time flying a drone. While sitting in a lounge chair in front yard, flew the thing to Reese Bottom and took a few pictures. I will attach one here and another is on the ‘Home Page’. The below photo is of the shooting benches taken from 200 feet above the ground. After taking this photo I hit the home button and the thing…[Read more]

Surrell, you bring up an interesting point. Dan and I actually talked about the fouler plates after last month’s shoot. We talked about grinding the paint off and getting back to the metal. There are many coats of paint on the plates now. We also discussed maybe alternating paint colors. Say orange-white-orange-white or something along that…[Read more]

It was good to see Champion Sniper out and about. The Mrs. and I just got back from a joy ride out past Reese Bottom and look what we found. Someone in the family is getting ready for dove season. WWE

Congratulations to the winners today, esp. Kenneth Thomas who was proud that he won his first division pin. Not sure, but I think Brent Bishop also. All of the divisions were super competitive but I would like to call everyone’s attention to the agg avg in the mechanical division. I think that it is unbelievable that 8 different guns can shot 4…[Read more]

Just read an email from Birmingham and noticed where Reese Bottom’s own Kenneth Thomas had a great day of shooting yesterday at 520 yards. Good to see our good shooters having success at other ranges. I am also including a picture of a 5 shot, 1000 yard target shot by a good shooter in the mountains of Montana yesterday. 2.13 inches. Wow!! I…[Read more]

Reese Bottom will host a bench rest match on Saturday July 15, 2017. The match will be similar to the June match with the main difference being that we will start at 500 yards and work back to 200 yards. It will be a 20 record shot match with 5 at 500, 5 at 400, 5 at 300, and 5 at 200 plus foulers at each distance. I will have some food and…[Read more]

If you have ever shot at Reese Bottom, you will know where this is. The ditch that you go over just before you go under the railroad trestle. Good thing we are not shooting soon. The road is impassable and will have to be dealt with before we can enter the farm. WWE

Al, it sure was good to see you back at Reese Bottom. I was interested to know if you found out anything with your scope. I guess with all the rain it is hard to get outside. I was also wondering if you had given any thought to the discussion we had about clicks vs moa and what your thoughts might be. Maybe other good shooters have questions…[Read more]

I would like to mention again how the Reese Bottom spreadsheet determines the Over All Winners. The shooters are divided into 3 divisions determined by front rest and caliber and the shooters in each division are judged by group size and score. Everyone is hoping for small groups and high scores. The spreadsheet gives a little more weight to the…[Read more]

Happy to be able to report a great day of shooting today from the benches at Reese Bottom. Sixteen good shooters enjoyed the good time and great shooting today. The format was 5 @ 200, 5 @ 300, 5 @ 400, and 5 @ 500 yards. Things were a little wet today, but everyone got to and from okay. Be sure and view the home, photo, and result pages for…[Read more]

Here’s the deal. There is a chance for rain tonight and tomorrow. Suze and I just took a load of stuff to Reese Bottom and it is damp, but not unshootable so we will shoot at some time tomorrow so plan to come on. If it is actually raining early, we will wait it out and maybe start a little late. Surely it want rain all day. I will be up by 6…[Read more]

Brett, they have tried to post the results on the IBS website, long range results. I cannot get the links to open. Getting a 404 error. I think that I read where the person responsible for these postings passed away, which caused problems and delays. Should be up and going soon. Not sure why Bar 3 is not posting their results. WWE

Sounding like we will have a very good group of shooters on Saturday. Great to hear that good shooter Al Barr may be present. Click the photo below to view the results from the 1000 yard prone match held at Bar 3 Range in Laurel, MS. Several very familiar names. Sounds like those folks have got it going with the new electronic targets.…[Read more]
