It's not really 8208 but it shoots just like it. Lot #122910 is the date of pulldown (12/29/10). Burns dirtier than 8208; I'm still shooting it.

Memories of Norm I first met Norm at a Visalia match; an avid varmint shooter, seeking the greatest accuracy, he and his brother Elton were steered down to the match by Lee Six. After their first visit, they were hooked on Benchrest shooting. They both regularly shot Visalia matches for over 25...

Sniper king In my memory, always one of the best shoots around; great locale, competitors & fellowship. Congrats to all. Francis Lee

Walt was a true gentleman and a friend to all in benchrest. He did so much for our sport. May he rest in peace.

I knew something was wrong when he missed the Unl. match at Sac. & I couldn't contact him. Henry was one of the guys that got me into rimfire. Lately he tried to talk me into air rifles; I said "Henry, I got enough addictions, I don't need heroin!"(and we'd both laugh). I will dearly miss him.

LOL, Steve I'll always remember that one, too!

Elton Jeffery I know that Elton was in pain with various ailments for a long time. May he rest in peace.

Butch Fisher used to say it was Butch and Tom, LOL!

Td2 It certainly could be, since Tom worked for BAT for many years.

Panda action The action serial number will tell you year of action manufacture, although nothing wrong with oldies. I still shoot my 88XX(1988) and 89XX(1989)

Bob Dorton Bob was like a favorite Uncle to all of us at the range. Building frames, providing & fixing lunch for everyone. If someone was interested in trying BR, Bob would provide them a gun & ammo. We will be missing Bob greatly whenever we go to Sac to shoot. Rest in peace.

Bill Mellor was the person who got me into Benchrest after shooting local matches in the 1980's. He gave a lot to the sport with his time & efforts- writing match reports, being a Director and generally helping people. Very sad that he deteriorated the way that he did. Condolences to the...

Jason Thanks for the report!!

Another old timer gone Steve was very passionate about bullet making and Benchrest; he had no filter, and was best taken in measured doses. Dennis Thornbury used to tell of Steve calling & going on & on; Dennis put down the phone, went and took a shower and when he came back Steve was still...

Happy Birthday, Walter! And Thank You for ALL you have done. Francis Lee

I’ve known Dennis for 6 weekends a year for 30 yrs.- Benchrest matches. I believe that he has been directing matches at Visalia at least 10 yrs. prior to my benchrest shooting, so that’s 40 years! That is a lot love , dedication and work to put on matches for that period of time. Then dealing...

Bud mundy He just shot the match at Raton this last weekend.
