Wynne Echols replied to the topic Neck Tension ? in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 9 years ago
Thank you Brett and Al for this information. All of you good shooters and reloaders, there is something to learn here. I have actually been using a very different approach with failing results. I have been wet tumbling my brass in stainless steel media and believe me, it is clean, and it is pretty. But it ain’t doing good. I have had another…[Read more]

Wynne Echols replied to the topic Fun Saturday at Reese Bottom in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 9 years ago
I just looked back through the photos and the thing that caught my attention is how many of you different good shooters won small group prizes. Congrats everyone. The .308/.223 division was also very competitive with a dozen or so shooters. We need to recruit us several more Open Bi-Pod shooters and the divisions would be pretty much…[Read more]

I was wondering if achieving consistent neck tension was an issue with any of you good shooters. I seem to be having issues and am looking for new ideas and techniques. All comments are appreciated. WWE

Thanks guys for all of the kind words. Looks like I am not going to have many essays to grade. Just do not understand why so many are so hesitant to comment. I owe a public apology. Ms. Lauren mentioned to me during the match Saturday that it was Chase’s birthday and I totally forgot. Sorry, at least he got his photo on the front of this…[Read more]

Good morning to all. Reese Bottom has created it’s own divisions and scoring system and you good shooters have never questioned things so I assume that you are all okay with everything. We divide our rifles into three divisions and crown an overall winner in each division. Two of the divisions are shot from a bi pod and a rear bag and the…[Read more]

We will plan to shoot unless it is raining Saturday morning. I plan to get up by 6:00 am Saturday morning so if there is any doubt and you would like to call, please do. My cell…[Read more]

Ben, just watched a video of John Whidden being interviewed after winning the Berger National’s in which he mentioned that he had shot hybrids in two different rifles with obviously much suggest. But, Lester Bruno set a record of 200, 23X, I think shooting berger bullets. This sounds confusing, but both must be very good products. WWE

Thank you, Steve Gilley. I usually cook a large package of Conecuh if that gives you some idea of how much. I will have bread, mustard, and ketchup. I also need three good shooters to bring their shooting stool. Regardless of what the weather does between now and then, Reese Bottom will be wet so plan to wear your rubber boots. I am starting…[Read more]

The first match is to be held the first Saturday in April. I have actually done a little work on top of the hill in prep for shooting 1000 yards. If several of you are interested in doing…[Read more]

Ben, you have asked a question that probably does not have an exact answer. Al’s point is a good one. Test and find out yourself what you think your rifle shoots the best. I do believe it to be beneficial to decide on a bullet and develop your load around the bullet of choice. You hear of lots of people that wear out a barrel in load…[Read more]
