Hello Everyone.
On May 7th and 8th, 2016, Tacoma Rifle and Revolver Club held their 2nd match of the year. This contest would determine the winner of the Manley Oakley trophy. Pdf with match results and group photo attached.
Saturday brought us a warm morning with some tricky wind conditions.
We began with our Sporter class at 100 yards on Saturday morning which was won by Larry Muller with a tiny .1964" agg.
That afternoon at 200 it warmed up further, the wind and mirage caused minor havoc, but Dan Kjelland showed us all how its done, taking the 200 yd agg. (.2462"). Mattt Spradlin shot the best overall for the day taking the Sporter grand aggregate (.2535")
Sunday brought more windy, but much cooler conditions for us. Windy, switchy conditions and some light mirage was playing a role in group sizes.
We shot the Heavy Varmint class at 200 yards in the morning. Jeff Lewis shot a .2308" agg. to win the yardage. At 100 yards in the afternoon, Larry Boers took the yardage with a spectacular .1822" teen agg.
Larry Boers shot the best overall for the day and took the HV grand aggregate with a .2197" agg,
Larry Boers brings home the trophy for the second year in a row, winning the 2 gun with a .2505" agg.
Congratulations Larry!
Of special note:
Nice to have shooting with us Eric Stanton and Larry Muller, who traveled to Tacoma from Oregon.
Special thanks to Karen Lynn, Jim Lynn, and Zach Silverton for doing a fine job running our Range and Target crew.
Coffee cup small group awards go to:
Larry Muller Sporter 100 .136"
Dan Kjelland Sporter 200 .211"
Larry Boers HV100 .103"
Eric Stanton HV200 .330"
We also had our first look at our new covered loading area. Wow, what a big improvement! A big thank you to Duane Hatch, Kertis Peterson, and all involved at TRRC for getting this done.
And finally, we said goodbye to a friend and fellow shooter, Denny Andrews. A moment of silence before the final match on Sunday was held to honor our friend Denny who passed away April 29th.
Thank you and see you next month for Heavy Varmint on Saturday, plus bring out the rail guns for 5 shot Unlimited on Sunday!
