Wynne Echols started the topic One Gun Please !!! in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 10 years, 4 months ago
I had a good shooter contact me this morning about possibly shooting two guns and working the pits. Well after thinking it through, would be difficult because must likely will be shooting or in the pits. In order to make this match run better, I ask that everyone plan to shoot only one rifle. Without pit duty, we can make two guns work, but…[Read more]

Wynne Echols started the topic Score Sheet in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 10 years, 5 months ago
If you did not see Robbie’s score sheet Saturday, check it out on the ‘Home Page’. I thought at the time that this might be something special. According to a gentleman on the Accurate Shooter Forums, the F-Open world record is 200/19X, which he says has been shot on two different occasions. Congratulations to Robbie, job well done. WWE

Al, I have most of a 20# bag that I bought from Tractor Supply if that will help. It does not seem to be a heavy sand. A 20# bag only weighs twenty pounds, but it is in a small bag. WWE ps. tell Thomas to knock the rust off of his rifle.

Allen, good luck and choot’ um small. Send us an update. Is there a website that we can go to? Sounds like West Virginia must be shooter friendly. I noticed in the IBS National Results that a shooter shot a 2.1″ five shot group at 1000 yards. I do that regularly at 400 yards. Oh well, leaves room for improvement. Good Luck, WWE

Steve, thanks for posting. Interesting information. I have some stuff at the top of each list and I also have some not so near the top. One thing for sure, there is only so much good stuff out there. If we can get Gardner to respond, I bet you will see that the 6mm is not so popular at 1000 yards. I received an email from Tullahoma today and…[Read more]
