Wynne Echols started the topic Taking it to the Next Level in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 10 years, 5 months ago
I had the privilege of shooting with Mrs. Bauer two years ago in Yukon, MO at the IBS long range Nationals. I ran across these results from a recent long range match match and it looks like she has things figured out. Click the photo to enlarge and check out the amazing 5 shot group that she posted at 1000 yards to win the shoot off. That has to…[Read more]

I think we have enough interest to go forward with the 50 yard .22 match. This will be shot following the regular August match as stated in the above post. I will plan to have a little something for lunch so that we will not go hungry. Our family is all about eating. If you might know of someone that is not interested in the regular match but…[Read more]

Fellows, I will try to explain what Dave is talking about. During Dave’s Sunday afternoon ‘light gun’ relay, after the fifth of ten shots, his gun would not fire. The rules state that he may finish his relay, no sighters, with another gun, time permitting. We had plenty of time and I had plenty of bullets so I ran and got the Panda Dasher, clean…[Read more]

Well, here we go on the iPad. The first day’s results are in the books and unfortunately they count all ten bullets for group size, not nine. My first bullet this morning took a nine shot sub 7″ group to 13+ and I messed up the wind read for a 55 score. Things got better this afternoon in the ‘heavy gun’ class when I won my relay for score with…[Read more]

Dan, I have about decided that I was not lubing the cases enough and when the sizing die would get near the base of the case it was making a very inconsistent grab on the brass. Remedy seems to be to better lube the brass before sizing. Live and learn. WWE
