We had a great turnout for our May match at our small range with five shooters posting eleven entries.
My brother Philip was the first gun on the line today. His Ruger Charger yielded a 40X40 in UAS. Allen Gaskin fired three guns. In the Revolver category his Freedom Arms delivered a 32X40. Then using his Anschutz in Unlimited his score was 37X40. His BF Production gun gave him problems and the result was a DNF. Will Kirste shot a UAS 32X40 with an Anschutz. His wife Brenda then stepped up and bested him with a 34X40 in UAS. Non-Member Bruce Finley used an Anschutz in UAS to post a score of 36X40. I fired the only Practical Hunter entry using an iron sighted High Standard Trophy and managed a 33X40. I tried the NRA Smallbore Cowboy Rifle game using an old Remington 550 and squeaked out a 23X40. I did manage to clean the last bank of rams. Bruce Finley showed me how the rifle game is supposed to be played posting a 39X40 with his Marlin 39. His only miss was a pig with the shot going just under the belly. In NRA Hunter Pistol Bruce used a scoped Ruger Charger and finished with a very respectable 32X40. Many thanks go to my cousin Lanny for showing up at lunchtime and providing us with home cooked barbeque pork ribs and also chipped beef sandwiches. It was awesome and everyone enjoyed and appreciated it. Thanks also to Bruce, Brenda, and Will for staying till the end to help me pick up the targets.
