On October 18, 2014, Reese Bottom will host the final bench rest match of this year. November will be our last mid range prone match of the year. For the last match, plans are to do things a little different[4 @ 600 yards]. As mentioned in an earlier topic, I have always wanted to try to have a 600 yard match and try to make it as official as…[Read more]

There will be no sight in disk at the October match. All fouler shots will be fired at the local residents of Reese Bottom.

Surrell, you were a victim of the ‘curse of Reese Bottom’. For three years now, you have been asked to spend all of your money on powder and bullets and do what? Always set your ??????????? Thanks for sharing what you have with others. Sounds like everyone had a fun day at the range. Sorry that I could not make this one, maybe next time.…[Read more]

The website folks updated the webpage and changed the photos and video page. Everything resized and we have had to change some things. The videos should click and play. The photo page changed a little. Go to the ‘Photo’ page and you should see a group of thumbnails. Hover over the thumbnail and click. Not all, but several of the photos in…[Read more]

Barry, it was nice meeting you this past weekend and hope to see you again soon at Reese Bottom. And thanks to for joining in the forums. Everyone, I am going to throw this scenario at you and need your input. We have discussed the plates as a possibility, but we feel like for safety sake they would need to be well in front and below the actual…[Read more]

Wynne Echols started the topic *Need Your Feedback* in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 11 years, 3 months ago
I have always wanted to have a true 600 yard benchrest match at Reese Bottom. Official IBS 600 yard targets and have three divisions, factory, modified, and light gun. As all of you know, 600 yards at Reese Bottom has a ‘pit setup’. My thinking is to stage clay birds on the berm in front of the targets and give the shooter a time to shoot at the…[Read more]

Dennis, I think practice is definitely the answer, but I also do think that you have got to correct that comfort thing first. Please, some of you guys tell us a good way to create a stable, comfortable, prone set up. WWE

Dennis, On the .223, I have a very high set of scope rings. I also have seen, do not own, F-Class rest feet that would appear to give the front rest more height. As for the firing line, I have tried to achieve a gentle slope up to a flat area for the rest. Might allow for a little relocating of the rest. Surely someone else has a comment on this. WWE

Well Mr. Burkart, you must certainly be seeing something of interest. Your shooting sure seems to be getting very consistent. Why not tell the fellows that you won your relay high score at 1000 yards again this match. I cannot wait for the time when your name is atop the shoot-off results. Looks like you were real close this past match. Shoot…[Read more]

Did any of you good shooters take anything from the mid range match this past Saturday that you would like to share. Maybe some secret info you heard that nobody else did or something that you noticed about the conditions or my technique that you would like to share. All in all, the conditions must have been relatively calm. Since the match I…[Read more]

Steve, do you care to share with everybody the method you use to level your rifle? Thanks for sharing the above. WWE

Wynne Echols replied to the topic Is Your Rifle Scope Canted? in the forum Reese Bottom Chat Room 11 years, 4 months ago
Dan, I used your line, but looking back, I used the line and probably should have used the edge of the line. Best I remember it was a felt pen line that was fairly wide. Steve has made a good suggestion below. Thanks for the comment. WWE

Britt brought something to my attention the other day that I think is worth sharing. I am sure that many of you good shooters are aware of this, I was not, therefore I am sharing in hopes that someone will learn something that will improve their shooting. At my last benchrest match, June, I did not notice any condition at the 500 yard target and…[Read more]
