A gentleman asked me once if I knew how to get to Carnegie Hall. I had no idea and told him so. His answer was practice, practice, practice. It appears that Addison Gunter is trying to get there. So proud of this young man. The photo below is of some recent practice time at Reese Bottom getting ready for the upcoming Mid Range Match on the 19th.

Thomas Webb recently sent me several photos of his new 300 yard private range located just outside of Toomsuba, Ms. He mentioned that the range would be unique in that they planned to shoot only 4 shot targets. Great job Mr. Webb. WWE

Well as it turns out, we are actually shooting at target centers, not real targets. Does anyone know where we could buy, say, 8 ring centers? Thanks, WWE

Way to go Dave. Dave Burkart bought my first benchrest BR and I got to shoot with him last year at The World Open. Real nice guy with a…[Read more]

On July 19, 2014, Reese Bottom will host a Mid Range Prone Match sponsored by Backwater Custom Firearms. Registration will begin at 8 am and hopefully we will be shooting by 9 am. $10 per gun and the F-Open and FTR classes will pay at least 2 places if we have a similar number of shooters as before. If more shooters come we might pay a third…[Read more]

On a different topic. Suze found a big ole tick lodged behind my left knee after the shoot. Might better check yourselves. Champion Sniper jinxed me. He asked during the match if we had a problem. Said it was bad up north of here. Good Luck. WWE
