    Declining attendance

    I'm fairly certain he means "Reciprocity" and is suggesting that "Reciprocity" between shooting organizations without having to be a member would probably increase attendance. If I'm correct, I'm of the opinion it would, but whether it's doable is an entirely different matter. Landy

    Chief City Shooters double match results 07-07-2024

    Thanks Jerry, but as I told Scott we’re in a good place now (other than the waiting), and all these weather disasters across the entire country have left others in much worse shape than us. At least when Jerry Stiller arrives here in a few weeks, he’ll be able to stay with us instead of a...

    Chief City Shooters double match results 07-07-2024

    We’ve finally got the house to where it’s perfectly livable and comfortable, but we’re now playing the waiting game with several insurance adjustors and interior/exterior contractors. I probably won’t know if I’m going to Lincoln until the last minute, what with all that’s going on. Thanks for...

    Beginner, gonna try my first match in ARA factory

    You certainly have the right attitude and I'm betting you enjoy yourself. Perhaps we'll meet up sometime this summer. Good Luck Landy

    Beginner, gonna try my first match in ARA factory

    It appears you’ve done your homework and are well prepared for your first match, so don’t have many tips per se that wouldn’t be better said face to face. The only thing you’re lacking is experience and many of us have as much fun gaining that experience as we do shooting the actual matches...

    Tell us about your Bench Rest journey.

    I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed reading Vic's and Larry's stories! I think they may be very informative for those that may have a desire to shoot BR, but may not know what's involved and how to go about it. Thanks guys, Landy

    Ir 50/50 (275)

    249 24X vs 250 0X Although supposedly there may have been a 250 0X shot at some point in the past, I can tell you that it’s nearly an impossible task and would be similar, but not as extreme, as the old statistical example of: “If you put an infinite number of monkeys in a room with an...

    Ir 50/50 (275)

    Hi Norm, I’ve been following your progress since we first met at the Area Championship in Texas last year and I truly appreciated you agreeing to share a bench with me when I asked for a fairly new shooter so I could possibly help them. My only regret is that the wind was so bad I couldn’t even...

    Bourbon

    Oh Good Lord! Everyone pray for these neophytes if that happens! I'm gunna call them the K & K duo, organize a heckling fan club, set up a gambling parlor, and then sell tickets for this extravaganza! They'd better bring a Hell of a lot of Bourbon and be prepared to share or they'll never...

    SPEC P-1 "Primevil" Delivered to Robert Oates

    Unless Robert has some killer ammo stashed away, I think it's unlikely his performance will be indicative of the rifle's potential in the near term, considering there's no match ammo available for anyone at the current time to lot test. Since Larry Parsons was with Robert when he received...

    Just saw on Facebook

    It's all relevant and good scores remain good scores, whether a Factory eligible rifle on the Factory target or an Unlimited rifle on the Unlimited target. These are great Factory targets being reported here and deserve a lot of praise! I know I'd be proud to accomplish it and I have the...

    aluminum bedding blocks

    I purchased one of Anthony's stocks when they first became available because I thought it might be advantageous in my testing. I wanted to be able to compare various barreled actions without introducing all the possible variables from using separate stocks with different geometries, materials...

    50y BR with Thomas HPX

    Quite a few years ago I decided to compare about a dozen barrels with the same lot of ammo in varying lengths from 6" to approx 25" and found a fairly strong indication that shorter barrels had a lower V SD than longer ones. Kind of the opposite of what you hear from most RFBR shooters when they...

    50y BR with Thomas HPX

    Thanks for the info Mike. Yup, I had a brain fart on the Sg! Self taught amateur ballisticians have a tendency to do that. LOL I live almost dead center of the State in Cozad, NE on I-80. You can even see my tunnel from I-80 if you know where to look. Neighboring States but still a very long...

    50y BR with Thomas HPX

    Mike, A few more random comments, thoughts and questions: You mentioned in post #11 you were observing a 30 to 40 deg slant due to "Aerodynamic Jump". Through live fire testing with RF projectiles having a Sg (Stability factor) of 1.5, I measured a 36 deg slope at 25 yds and a 30 deg slope...
