Mike,
I hope my entry made it to your mailbox. It is time to get that 30BR barrel off my Viper and put the 6.5 284 barrel back and get ready for the April and May matches.I will also work up a real personal dislike of clay pidgeons- I love to see them disintegrate through a rifle scope.

Your entry is taken care of. Good luck at Tad's match tomorrow in San Angelo. Tymn Combest is runnin scared.

Poured another section of concrete today at the range for the addition of three more benches, gets me to 15 for the upcoming East Texas Championship in May and the NBRSA 600 yd match in June. Should get the roof on next week then build the benches. We'll see how it goes this year and if we get the support of the shooters I will add more next spring.

Looking good Mike! I am really looking forward to this match. It is going to be a great time for sure.
Looking forward to Tad's match tomorrow as well. Going to give Darrel and Tymn both a run for the money.

Joe ,I would not call that a run for the money ,I call it a butt kickin.Wind such that you have to hold off the paper to hit the 10 ring was new to me.Havig bullets blow over and hit the left target when you aim at the right target can hurt your score!!!
You, Tymn and Scott did an excellent job shooting in the toughest conditions I have experienced.I had a good time though .Next hurricane to hit texas I,m gonna do a lot of practicing.Thanks Tad for another good match.

When you go to Tad's range this time of the year, you can expect lots of wind. It was like that last year as well. It adds challenge doesn't it?
