Concentricity Gauge This type of indicator was designed specifically for checking rotating diameters and in fact is exactly the type of gauge used in the machining industry for decades to measure run out; the very thing that we as hand loaders are striving to minimize or eliminate. At 21 Century Shooting it is our goal to modernize an industry that has seen little change over the years. Our concentricity gauge is a perfect example. st

Mac Clark Memorial & Montana State by Ryan Lienemann, Match Director

Tim Naugle Sweeps Both Hunter & Varmint-For-Score The Yellowstone Rifle Club hosted its annual Mac Clark Memorial benchrest match on June 28th and 29th. This match was also designated the Montana State 100/200yard short range HBR/VFS Championship with the 200/300-yard long range Championship being held earlier in May by the Whittecar Rifle & Pistol Club in Hamilton, Montana. We had a good turnout of shooters with 12 in the hunter class on Saturday and 15 on Sunday in varmint for score. Temperatures hovered in the 60s and 70s throughout the weekend. The 100-yard HBR match was the first order of business on Saturday morning. The early morning conditions were fairly mild with the winds starting to pick up during the last few targets. As a rule, the Yellowstone Rifle Club typically has quickly switching wind patterns and this day would not be an exception to the rule. Tim Naugle started off his reign of dominance for the weekend with a first place finish with a score of 250-19X. Bill Small took second place with a 250-13X and Greg Swezey came in third with a 250-10X. After a hearty lunch, the shooters rotated five benches, reset their flags and got ready for the 200yard HBR match. This was a challenging match with strong winds at times that caused more than a few wind flags to bite the dust. The rolling winds that sometimes come off of the western slope of the valley that we shoot in can be hard to predict and that proved to be the case for the competitors on that end of the range. Tim Naugle was still in his groove and finished

with a 243-2X that earned him the first place trophy. Greg Swezey took second with a 241-2X and Ray Becker’s 239-4X was good for third. After the dust temporarily settled, the grand aggregates were tallied and ended up being a repeat of the 200-yard victors. Tim Naugle came in first with a 493-21X followed again by Greg Swezey with a 49112X second place and Ray Becker with a third place finish of 487-14X. Tim Naugle won the prize for most X’s with a count of 21. As if to add insult to injury, Mother Nature had more in store for us that afternoon because while we were all sitting around in the clubhouse after the match, a nasty rain storm quickly blew in coupled with gale force winds that scattered and soaked some of the remaining gear left on the firing line. The shooters returned to their benches on Sunday morning, this time bringing with them their VFS rifles with more weight in the bags and higher-power scopes to try to better their odds, but the wind still wasn’t about to let the boys off easy. The morning activities commenced with the 200-yard VFS match. Switching classes from HBR to VFS didn’t slow down Tim Naugle at all with his score of 2482X taking first place, followed by Durwood Hansen in second with a 245-0X. Ryan Lienemann came in third with a 244-4X. Another tasty lunch and afternoon snacks were provided by Ginger Lienemann. We got the afternoon session started with rotating another five benches and then the 100-yard VFS match got underway to round out the weekend. The wind finally subsided a bit and some good scores were posted. Sam Small won first place with a 250-13X, followed closely by

Richard Lynn in second with a 25012X and Greg Swezey in third with 250-11X. Tim Naugle’s 200-yard performance gave him the edge in the VFS grand aggregate with a first place tally of 496-16X. Greg Swezey’s overall consistency gave him second place with a 493-16X and Sam Small’s 100-yard victory bumped him up to third place in the grand with a 492-18X. Sam Small also put up the most X’s in VFS with a count of 18. The scores for the weekend’s events follow. An asterisk (*) next to the name indicates out-of-class. I want to congratulate the winners and thank all of the competitors for attending the match and supporting our club. Many of the shooters came from our neighboring state of Wyoming, some from far eastern Montana, the Small’s and Greg Swezey from Washington, and Don Mulhall all the way up from Texas. I also want to give a big thanks to my wife Ginger Lienemann for putting on the lunches and also running the target crew along with Hailey Anderson and my two sons Kyle and Tyler Lienemann.

Dean Thomas Wins Northern Colorado Two-Gun

by LuAnn Dill Standing L-R: Irv Sheldon, Roger Tillery, Ron Hensley, Cliff McNairy, Jack Duncan, Tom Evans, Al Johnson, Two Gun Champion, Dean Thomas, Michael Beard. Kneeling L-R: LuAnn Dill, Colt McNairy, Brandon McNairy Howdy all! Wile E Coyote reporting from Northern Colorado Benchrest Shooters. Our second match of the year was held June 7-8. Gorgeous weather which soon turned hot surrounded the range and 19 shooters. This was our first Varmint match for 2014. Sporter Varmint shooters lined up at the benches, rifles at the ready and bolts in hand. Everyone was eager to get started on the 100 yards target. Dean Thomas took the 1st place position with an Agg of 0.1552. Great shooting Dean! He was also doing his best to claim all the small groups for each target. He took the small group honors for four of the targets but the small group overall was awarded to Cliff McNairy with a group size of 0.0900 who also claimed the first Screamer of the season. Wow, what a group! While target frames were moved to 200 yards lots of laughs and back patting was going on in the loading barn. There were many tight groups and many pleased competitors. With lunch in our tummies we set out again to see who would shine in the 200 yard match. Al Johnson came in 1st place with an Agg of 0.2810. Way

to go Al! Small group was claimed by Jack Duncan with a 0.3110. Nice group Jack! We were joined by an out of class shooter testing out a rail gun. He shot a small group of 0.2900. Nice group, should we be worried about Unlimited matches? The 100/200 Grand Agg for the day went to Dean Thomas with a little Agg of 0.2843. Awesome shooting Dean! After the final call of the day to “Cease Fire” everyone hot and tired retired to either their campers for a cold drink or off to home to relax in the A/C. I was sporting a lobster look for the day. Sunday began with Heavy Varmint at 200 yards. Because we start a bit earlier on Sunday’s, the shooters enjoy the morning coolness longer making for nice groups. New shooter Al Johnson sat tall in his 1st place win with an Agg of 0.2394. Way to go Al! But small group went to Roger Tillery with his tiny little group of 0.1940. Not only did he claim the small group for the match, he took home a Screamer patch! Remarkable marksmanship Roger! After a quick lunch break to move the targets and settle down from the excitement we went to the line. Dean

Thomas was on a roll this weekend. He won 1st place with his 100 yard Agg of 0.2284. Outstanding Dean! Small group was won by Irv Sheldon with a 0.1050. Splendid shooting Irv! You gotta watch out for this guy. As the shooters begin packing up the scores were being finalized and trophies were set out. The 100/200 yard Grand Agg for the day went to Dean Thomas with his combined Agg of 0.2438. Dean also took the 2 day Agg 1st place win with a score of 0.2640. Splendid work Dean. He truly loves this sport! To all attending shooters I say “Great shooting!” None of this could happen without the shooters who come to play and the top notch staff, match director and target crew. We’ll post results soon for our 27th Annual Firewalker. Sporter 100-Yards Dean Thomas....................0.1552 Michael Beard................... 0.2332 Brandon McNairy................ 0.2654 LuAnn Dill........................ 0.2692 Tom Evans........................ 0.2698 Irv Sheldon....................... 0.2726 Cliff McNairy..................... 0.2758 Barry Benson..................... 0.2944 Roger Tillery..................... 0.3008

Holton’s Michigan State Championship

by Nancy Scarbrough Ted Heindselman Wins the 2014 Michigan State Championship July 26-27, 2014

Greetings from Holton Gun & Bow Club and home of this year’s NBRSA Group Nationals (scheduled September 22-27, 2014), and the final point match to qualify for the 2015 USA Benchrest Team. Benchrest shooters from all over the country were here to begin their journey to understand this range in preparation for the Group Nationals and Team USA qualifier. Don Creach (2013 Team USA member) drove 9 hours from Missouri and Chuck Miller from Arizona drove way too many hours to get a taste of Holton’s famous mirage and friendly accommodations.

Saturday morning greeted 50 shooters with 65° temperatures which quickly warmer to the mid-80s. Winds were shifty as they tend to be, but not too much to be unpleasant. Definitely enough to give most shooters fits. The LV100 was won by Joe Hynes with a fine teen agg of .1904. Past National Champion Ken Hottenstein was second with at .1956 agg, and Chuck MacCluer was third with a .2036 agg. The 5-shot small group was recorded by Vic Halverson shooting a .133. Saturday afternoon brought a little more mirage with light but switching winds. I can tell you there were many of us scratching our heads trying to figure out the conditions. Just one wind flag turning would double the

size of the group. The HV100 winners were Chuck Miller with a .1848, Ted Heindselman with .1850, and Melvyn (Mr. Tuner) Newransky with a teen agg of .1922. Small group was shot by John Anderson with a fine .064. Conditions on Sunday morning were settling, to say the least. After evening rains a heavy fog settled upon the range. When 8:00 came to start the HV200, only half the field could see their targets. After a 1-1/2 hour delay, relay 1 was called to the line and we began shooting in calm conditions. Joe Krupa was ready to commence firing and blasted down a fine .166 group in match 1 (most likely the small group, or that’s what he thought). However, in the fourth match after the


October, 2014 Precision Rifleman wind had picked up, Ted Heindselman fired another .166, to split the honors with Joe. The fine screamers by Joe and Ted positioned both of them for chance to win the yardage. After the smoke cleared, Joe Krupa won the HV200 with a tiny .1841, Ted Heindselman was second with a .2060 and Jeff Aberegg shot a well-deserved .2419. Sunday afternoon brought the mirage and the switchy winds, plus a thunderstorm for the LV200. You can say goodbye to those teen aggs. The winning agg was shot by local shooter Troy Emery with a hard-earned .2707. Vic Potts shot a .2723 for second place and local Kevin Barnhard shot a richly deserved .2732 for third. The Light Varmint Grand was won by Vic Potts 0.2411. Joe Hynes was second at .2571 and Troy Emery third at .2630. Ted Heindselman won the Heavy Varmint Grand with a nice teen agg of .1955. Dale Dillingham was second with a .2263 and Chuck Miller third with a .2271. When the final tally was made, Ted Heindselman won the Two-Gun Aggregate with a sweet little .2385. Ted shot very consistently, but he really hammered the HV Grand, with a brilliant .1955 Agg. Joe Krupa was second in the Two-Gun with a solid .2506. Victor Potts finished third overall with a nice .2545. Just behind the top three shooters were Dale Dillingham .2592, Chuck Miller .2603, Bill Symons .2604, Troy Emery .2633, Joe Hynes .2669, Bob Scarbrough Jr .2672, and Lloyd Miller .2756. On behalf of the Holton Gun Club range master, scoring officials and target crew, thank you to all of the shooters that traveled hours to get Holton. We hope Name Ted Heindselman Dale Dillingham Chuck Miller Mel Newransky Bill Symons Bob Scarbrough, Jr Larry Feusse Dave Abbott Troy Emery Vic Potts Joe Hynes Kevin Barnhard Pat Metcalf

Muchas Gracias 2014

Larry Baggett Beats the Field Like Rented Mules

written by Mark Motsko photo by Turk Takano Warm and humid (for New Mexico) weather greeted twenty-five shooters at the Whittington Center for the July Muchas Gracias. While there were no storms during the shoots, there was significant rain Friday evening, making the range muddy and difficult to traverse. Some even joked Saturday morning they could have used a pack mule to move their flags. It was a good thing they didn’t, because Larry Baggett might have beaten those mules as badly as he did the competition that weekend. WBC-13 beater Charles Huckeba, took aim at the very first target frame on the line, started the LV100 off with a .156. Todd Tyler from Rio Rancho, New Mexico was right behind him with a .162 and Gerald Adams, from Fort Worth, Texas was statistically tied with Tyler with a .163 for third place. Late Friday afternoon Adams was

overheard saying Tyler and ‘Uncle’ Larry Baggett gave him enough tips where he felt comfortable he was going to shoot well for the weekend. Whatever tips he got must have been enough, because Adams led the field after the second match, following up his .163 with a .194. Jim Hemmert, out of Kalvesta, Kansas followed his .183 in the first match with a .187 to take second. Todd Tyler’s .227 dropped him to third, while Huckeba’s .249 dropped him to fourth. ‘Uncle’ Larry Baggett rounded out the top five. Usually, when people talk about someone named, “Adams” shooting well at Whittington, it’s WBC-12 USA Team Member Ed Adams they’re talking about. But on Saturday morning it was Gerald Adams who was shooting well. His .096 in the third match kept him in the top spot and earned him a trophy for small group for the

light varmint. Tyler’s .229 kept him in second, while Huckeba, Tom DeBacco, from Glendale, Arizona and Baggett rounded out the top five. A small hiccup in the fourth match, a .289 from Adams couldn’t knock him out of the top spot, but it may have indicated the pressure getting to him. Hemmert retook second place with a match small group of .129, while Baggett was right behind in third with a .142. Huckeba and Ed Adams rounded out the top five. Whatever advice Baggett gave to Gerald Adams on Friday, Baggett must have taken it to heart, because when the scorekeeper’s caliper was set down, Baggett’s .156 in the fifth match propelled him to victory with a .1914 aggregate. Jim Hemmert’s .1950 aggregate after a .187, was just enough to edge out Gerald Adams’ .1960 aggregate after shooting a .238


October, 2014 Precision Rifleman in the fifth match for second. Charles Huckeba, from Odessa, Texas came in fourth with a .1978 and Ed Adams rounded out the top five. Usually in Raton, the breezes start to pick up after lunch. Saturday afternoon was a little different as the shooters were given a rare westerly tailwind. NBRSA Mid Continent regional director Butch Fjoser, from Woodward, Oklahoma started the HV100 match off with a .141, with Ed Adams right behind him at .144. Delta, Colorado’s Larry Leser was third with a .157, while Roy Damron and Charles Huckeba rounded out the top five. Larry Baggett was the first shooter with a score larger than .200. His .208 had him in tenth place, but he wouldn’t stay there for long. After the second match, it was Adams and Adams in first and second place. Ed, from Albuquerque, shot a match small .173, while Gerald’s .238 following a .194 had him in second. Huckeba, Damron, and Baggett rounded out the top five, as Baggett jumped four shooters. Roy Damron is from appropriately named Rifle, Colorado. His .099 in the third match gave him the lead, as well as a trophy for small group for the HV100. Baggett’s hot hand (and that good advice) continued, as his .209 moved him into second place nudging the Adams’ into third (Ed) and fourth (Gerald). Durward Wofford, coming off his Heavy Varmint Grand Aggregate win in June here in Raton was in fifth place. “I blew up.” That’s how Damron explained his .487 in the fourth match, dropping him to fifth place. Ed Adams’ .177 gave him the lead while Baggett’s .203 kept him in the hunt going into the fifth and final match for the day. Huckeba was in fourth, and Tom DeBacco’s match small .138 moved him into fourth. Baggett’s barely sub .200 at .199 gave him his second win for the day with a .2116 aggregate. When asked what advice he gave Gerald Adams the day before, which he obviously followed himself, the wily old veteran pretended not to hear and walked away. Ed Adams’ .254 gave him a .2204 aggregate, good enough for second place. Huckeba’s match small group of .177 earned him a third place trophy. Bob Brackney of Wickenburg, Arizona and Roy Damron rounded out the top five.

Sunday’s matches started bright and early at 8AM with the HV200. Ed Adams started hot out of the gate with a .252. The recently retired Baggett, from Lubbock, TX and Jim Hemmert were on Adams’ tail with a .309 and .317 respectively. Hemmert grabbed the lead, and trophy for small group in the second match with a screaming .153, knocking Adams into second who shot a .357. Baggett remained in third with a .328. Charles Huckeba and Todd Tyler rounded out the top five. Hemmert continued to lead after the third match with a .413. Baggett and Adams traded second and third place, while Tyler moved into fourth, and Larry Lesser coming in fifth. The winds started to pick up a little, as Huckeba’s small group of the fourth match was a .323, but Hemmert continued to hold off the field with a .383, maintaining his lead going into the final heavy match of the weekend. Hemmert’s aggregate of .1583 had him leading Baggett who had moved into second place with a .1940 agg, after shooting a .453 in the fourth match. Adams, Tyler and Huckeba rounded out the top five. In the fifth match, it was another Kansan who shot the small group. John Grantham from Ulysses, put five in a hole that measured .297. But it was Grantham’s fellow Jayhawker Hemmert who took home the first place trophy for the HV200 Grand Aggregate. His .570 in the final match gave him a .1836 agg, followed by Baggett, with a .2016, Adams’ .2169, Huckeba’s .2261, and Tyler’s .2362. The shooters voted to skip lunch and immediately began the last match of the weekend, the LV200. Larry Leser started things off on the right foot by shooting a .242, earning him a trophy for small group. The switching winds wouldn’t give the competitors a better condition for the rest of the afternoon. Grantham continued his hot hand from the heavy match, coming in second place with a .362, followed by Baggett, Huckeba, and Bob Martinez from Lakewood, CO. Aaron French bounced back from a .706 in the first match shooting a second match small group of .315 to take second place, not quite enough to take the lead, as Baggett shot a .407. Huckeba, Brackney, and Adams rounded out the top five. French, out

13

of Lubbock Texas, did take the lead after the third match. His .363 moved him past Baggett, who dropped to second with a .551. Adams, Huckeba and Brackney were all right behind the two Texans. Tom DeBacco shot a match small .343. Baggett regained the lead after the fourth match, his .429 was the small group. Adams moved into second, bumping French into third. Brackney and Huckeba traded places for fourth and fifth. Adams finished the weekend with an exclamation point shooting a .336 in very tough conditions. It was the small group for the fifth match. That, combined with Baggett’s .820 gave Adams the victory with a .2503 aggregate. Baggett took second with a .2651, while Brackney’s .462 gave him a .2674 aggregate and the third place trophy. French and Huckeba rounded out the top five. At the awards ceremony, it was a clean sweep for Larry Baggett. In the Heavy Varmint Grand, Baggett’s .2066 beat Ed Adams’ .2186, Charles Huckeba’s .2298, Jim Hemmert’s .2377, and Roy Damron’s .2643. In the Light Varmint Grand, it was a little closer. Baggett beat Adams .2282 to .2283, a mere ten thousands of an inch. Huckeba came in third with a .2457, Tom DeBacco finished fourth at .2570, and Bob Brackney took fifth shooting a .2583 aggregate. In the Two Gun, the top five were Baggett with a .2174, Adams .2235, Huckeba .2378, Brackney .2682, and DeBacco .2711. The shooters again were nothing but complimentary to the target crew, John Harms and Aaron Snyder. The match ran flawlessly as usual.

Dean Ekstrom Wins the Don Judd Memorial

Minnetonka Game & Fish Club hosted the Don Judd memorial match July 1213. The weather man had predicted a mixed bag for the weekend and Mother Nature did not let us down. Nineteen shooters came to the line on Saturday morning and were greeted with overcast skies along with very light somewhat stable winds. Rain did threaten with big storms just south of the range

but we were spared the torrential down pours that have plagued the region. The Iowa boys came up ready to shoot and Chuck Miller from Arizona stopped by to have a go. We started Saturday morning with the LV100, the light winds and over cast skies set the stage for good agg’s. Mark Buettgen and Dean Ekstrom both shot very well and battled it out all

morning exchanging the lead on occasion. The last cease fire was called, the targets scored and Dean came out on top with a great agg .1850, Mark finished second with another great agg at .194, Dave Dowd captured third, Chuck miller was fourth and Terry Hettich rounded out the top five. Chuck Miller had the small group; a .093 screamer.


October, 2014 Precision Rifleman After lunch all the shooters got settled in for the HV100. The range still held the same conditions as the morning matches. Mark continued his fine shooting, however Dave Dowd put some pressure on him by shooting 3 straight one’s to make it very close going into the last match. Mark shot a good target in the last match and took first with .186 agg. Dave finished out with a .206 agg to claim second place, Jay Sperry in third, Dave Coots was fourth and new shooter Dennis Kecker finished fifth. Dave Dowd shot a .110 in match 4 for the small group. After the days matches were over, Scott grilled hamburgers, hot dogs and polish sausage along with potato salad, chips and drinks it was a perfect way to end a great day of shooting. We all had full bellies and spent the next few hours chewing the fat. A few of us decide to shoot some more and the rest headed off for some well deserved rest. Special thanks to Scott and Janet for putting on such a nice meal. Sunday morning the HV200 was contested. The shooters faced gusty tail winds and bright sunshine. The weather did a complete 180. Gone were the favorable conditions that we had enjoyed the previous day; the only thing missing was the threat of rain. Chuck Miller shot very well and was top dog with a .227 agg. Mr Coots came in second with a .246 agg, Dean “The Rock” Ekstrom placed third, Scott Moser was in fourth and Jerry Lahr took fifth

place. Dean took small group honors with a great .256 group. The LV200 started in the afternoon, wind intensity had picked up throughout the morning and mirage was now becoming a factor; at times the target rings could not be seen. “The Rock” took control right out of the gate and proceeded to whoop up on everyone. Dean shot a .240 agg and claimed first place, Scott finished in second, Chuck Miller in third, Dave Dowd in fourth and Bill Storbeck in fifth. Dean’s .365 in match 2 was small group. Dean shot very consistent all weekend and deservedly won the Don Judd memorial match. Congratulations Dean! Thank you to our target crew, Dan and Jeanette. Your hard work is much appreciated by all.

Van Dyne’s 2014 Wisconsin State Championship July 12-13, 2014

As in years past, the Wisconsin State Hunter shoot has somehow managed to draw some of the best shooters in the country. Many attend year after year trying to win a championship that seems to elude the best of the shooters. Practice on Friday made most think they were ready for the 100 yard event on Saturday until they looked down range on Saturday morning. The flags were hanging with not a hint of

any wind at all. That condition stayed that way most of the day. Many of the shooters were hoping that the wind would pick up but it was not to be. The 100-yard event still had 13-250’s posted at the end of the event. The Xcount was somewhat lower than usual, but Rick Allen, a local shooter, posted a 250-21X to win the event. Excellent shooting considering that many of the shooters were somewhat baffled by the conditions. Second at 100 yards

by Dick Baier

was Wayne Corley; a Missouri shooter and three-time National Hunter Champion with a 250-18X. As a side note, it took Wayne sixteen years to win a state championship in Wisconsin. Third place went to Richard Hunnewell with a 250-18X. Richard hails from just across the Mississippi river on the edge of Minnesota. Rounding out the top five was Jim Dowling with a 250-16X and Ron Bertrand with a 250-16X; both Wisconsin shooters. The 200-yard event was to be another interesting day of shooting as the winds decided they would make up for Saturdays’ lull. There were no 250’s shot at 200-yards on Sunday. The best anyone could do was a 248-5X from Richard Hunnewell; an excellent score considering the conditions all day long. In second with a 248-4X was a Missouri shooter, Tom Hencken. Tom is a four-time Wisconsin State Champion. Rounding out the top five at 200 was Keith Reinhard with a 247-5X, (another Green Bay shooter), ad in fifth was Wayne Corley with 246-9X. Richard Hunnewell won the Grand Aggregate with a 498-23X; excellent shooting, Richard. Second place went to Tom Hencken with a 498-19X. Third Brian Miller with 498-16X. Rounding out the Grand Agg in fourth was Wayne Corley with 496-27X and fifth place was Ron Bertrand with 496-20X. The traveling team trophy was won by a group of shooters called, “The Wannabe’s”. Two shooters were from Missouri, two from Holmen, Wisconsin and one from Minnesota. They were Tom Hencken, Clark Greene, Bruce Hansen, Craig Nagel and Richard Hunnewell. Their scores for the 100 were

Bruce Hodgdon Range

On Saturday, June 7, we held our Heavy Varmint match and the MidContinent Sporter 100 with twentysix shooters competing. There were three new shooters; Tim Henderson, Larry Caston and Neil Bickley. We’re happy you came and hope you enjoyed yourselves. We also had three former shooters who have not been present for some time; Daryl Dudley, Joel Gard and Ron Shultz. Chuck Miller, the owner and CEO of the not-so-famous Miller Mining Corporation in Wickenberg, Arizona also attended. We were unable to start the match on time because of a very heavy storm in the area. We had about a one hour delay. The rest of the day the weath-

er was cool and windy. Sunday was overcast skies with light and variable winds. TK Nollan is the Mid-Continent 100yard Sporter Champion with a nice .1974 aggregate, who also took the small group with a .095. Jim Gardner won the HV100 with a .2542 aggregate and Chuck Miller had the small group of .149. Sunday we began the HV200 and Keith Christianson won with an agg of .2606.

2014 Eastern Region Championship by Jack Neary, Eastern Region Director

Fourty-five shooters arrived at the Fairchance Gun Club on July 4-5 to find the range and grounds in immaculate condition ready for this year’s 2014 Eastern Region 3-Gun Championship. As always, we enjoyed a great turnout of shooters from all regions. It was great to have our very good friends, Clayton Martin, Alex Calder and Bill

Mitchell from Canada! Never a dull moment or dry eye with these guys around…sadly, no sight of Bill Gammon or George & Vera Carter. We enjoyed mild temperatures and manageable winds all weekend long to put our light varmint, heavy varmint and rail guns through their paces to try and capture the 3-Gun winning title! It was great to get our rail guns out again in preparation of both upcoming IBS and NBRSA Nationals. Here’s the recap from our match. We started off Friday morning with the HV100 aggregate and once again we enjoyed some very benign conditions. The light conditions agreed with Wayne Campbell as he took the first place win with a .2048 agg! Heavy Varmint 100-Yards Wayne Campbell............... 0.2048 Charlie Gough................... 0.2078 Joel Nader....................... 0.2170 Al Auman Sr ..................... 0.2366 Dale Woolum Jr................. 0.2408 The calm winds disappeared on Friday afternoon and was replaced by a hard Mr. 9 o’clock condition with some diabolical angle changes for the LV100 aggregate. Danny Pritt rose to the occasion in mastering the hard crosswind conditions in winning the LV100 with a .2526 agg. Light Varmint 100-Yards Danny Pritt...................... 0.2526 Floyd Cline....................... 0.2758 Jeff Peinhardt................... 0.2772 Joel Nader....................... 0.2824 Paul Whitt........................ 0.2870 On Friday evening, the Fairchance Gun Club provided the shooters a spaghetti dinner with all the fixings. As it always happens at Fairchance, many shooters stay late at the range sharing stories of shooters and matches gone by. The evening parties at Fairchance are something to behold as no one ever wishes them to end. On to the LV 200yd stage. Saturday morning greeted us with some warm temperatures and mild winds for the start of the LV200. Fresh off his (rocker) 95th Birthday, Stan Buchtel displayed some of his talented shooting skills and won the LV200 with a fine

.2212 agg using his own freshly baked bullets! Well done, Stan! We were all very happy for you with your LV200 agg win! Always glad to have you at the matches to show us all how to shoot!

The winds returned Saturday afternoon making all of us pay very close attention to the pickups. We were all very proud to see Paul Whitt break through with his very first agg win amongst some very strong competition. Well done, Paul! Congratulations to Wayne Campbell for winning both Grand Aggregates! Well done, Wayne!

The shooters elected to start Sunday’s Unlimited competition with the 200 yard agg first, as everyone’s flags were already set from Saturday’s LV and HV 200. Jeff Thompson showed he could tune his Rail Gun and hit the conditions better than the 17 shooter’s who stayed to shoot their Rail and/or Heavy Cruiser guns with his winning .2417 agg.

June 6-8, 2014

The hotly contested Hunter/VFS TwoGun 100/200/300 Southwest Regionals was held in Las Vegas. At the foot hills of the Red Rock mountains the temperatures soared above the century mark and shooters tried to keep hydrated while dealing with mirage, quick switches and sometimes disappearing bullet holes. The first day we shot both Hunter and VFS at 100 yards. Raymond Becker from Wyoming took first scoring a 24812X in Hunter. Twelve-year old Tony Debacco from Phoenix won the VFS scoring a 250-18X. Day two we shot 200 yards. In Hunter, Keith Myers scored a 246-4X to take first. Local tinkerer Ron Carter shot a 248-6X to win the VFS. The third and final day was all at 300 yards. Shooting a 237-2X in Hunter was Keith Myers taking first. New shooter Brian Jones won VFS scoring a 244-4X

* Flash * NBRSA News * Flash * NBRSA News * 2015 March Scope Tour

Here at Kelbly's we are starting a new way to advertise both March Scopes and Kelbly's Inc products. We are cutting way back on print advertising and going on the road with our advertising. I will be traveling the USA in 2015 going to gun shows and rifle matches. My question to you the shooters is, what shoots would be good for us to attend? We are doing this to get the March Scopes in front of you the shooters so you can get a good look at the March Scopes. I would like to go to bigger shoots, but tell me of your local shoots as well so if we are traveling by, we could stop by and show you our goods.

New App for Shooters CamScanner Phone PDF Creator

The CamScanner in one of several apps that helps you scan, store, sync

and collaborate on various contents across smartphones, iPads, tablets and computers. It digitizes documents through your phone camera, scans and optimizes quality on all kinds of paper documents, crops and auto enhances texts and graphics for a clearer image. Imagine how quickly you could upload the match stats as a .jpg or .pdf document to your favorite website or post it on social media or send an attachment link through email. In the paid version you can send the text through to other software, ie: excel and monitor your personal match performance progress over time. There’s a free version you can download at www.camscanner.com but be aware it is ad-supported and documents are generated with a watermark on them. Also, be aware the paid version self-renews unless you cancel.
