2 new Savage tri-rail scope rails that came with the 93R17 trr-sr. I lost the screws so just the rails. - $20 each shipped or both for $35 shipped.

The GF bought an M brace mount (32mm height) for her DNT "The One". The idea was she wanted to lift her scope up some to get it off her chassis (Daniel Defense Delta 5 pro). However, the reticle plug/cover on the bottom of the scope kept it from being able to be mounted on that mount. Does anyone know if the 38mm height will work for that scope or have any other suggestions?

Brand new Talley 30mm X-Bolt Rings, High - $55 shipped obo

Greetings fellow shooters from Topstraps Rimfire Challenge here in Eastern Ohio. This month the match dates are August 8th (Friday), 9th (Saturday) and 10th (Sunday). You can come anytime thru the day and it takes about an hour to shoot thru. There is a covered firing line and there are two benches so sometimes there is a wait for your turn to shoot. You have 3 days to pick from (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) starting at 8AM till 5PM or so. It takes about 100 rounds to shoot and about an hour to finish which is on the high end. Open bolts and chamber flags are a must and no handling of guns once they are leaned into the rack. Donation will be $20.00/entry this year.

I still think that ammo is the main deciding factor and the best way to come up with some type of classes. I've seen incredible scores shot with 60 year old target guns and poor scores shot with $7500 custom rifles. This year I think I'm going to go to three (3) classes and the winner of each class will receive a free entry the next match. The twist will be if a lower class shooter wins their class with a higher score than the class winners above them then the higher winners won't get a free entry. Example: Class C winner shoots a 79 and the Class B winner shoots a 78 and the Class A winner shoots an 80. The class A and Class C winners receives a free entry but the Class B winner does not. An incentive to compete occasionally with lower cost ammo for the challenge and to do well.

The three (3) classes of ammo will be C: $6.00/50 and under, B: Over $6.01 to $14.00 and A: Over $14.01 This may change and I don't have a complete list made up which would be hard to list each ammo but will base this on prices normally found at the online shops and not a sale item. I've sure everyone knows about where their ammo falls, also anyone with a tuner may use it but will jump you into the A class automatically. No Benchrest style front or rear rests. Bipods (even Rempel style) sandbags or an attached monopod are OK. Any scope/rifle combo is allowed but if you show up with a BR style gun shooting in C class you may get a shifty eyed sideways glance wondering what's up with this.

I've played with most of them and Yes they most definately do have a much better group at farther distances. A Class B ammo could possible compete with them as long as their dropped round is not on a small target but that's the gamble you take with the mid-range priced ammo. The lowest class is for those that are starting out, can't find or haven't tested better ammo but still wish to compete which is why I do this in the first place. Don't feel you can't come have fun and be competitive, you'll be shooting with others with similiar equipment.

Nearly everyone that shoots with us will offer any help they can, most will gladly let you look at their gun, scope, bipod and bags and let you try them out. You don't have to have top end stuff to come shoot and have fun. Plenty of you have kidded me about some of the stuff Chris and I shoot. I'm also going to have the peep sight targets up at each distance which are 4moa which is about the smallest you can see in the varying light conditions. If a stage has gamble targets for the scoped competitors the peep targets will also have a very challenging gamble higher point value target they can shoot at. Keeps both scoped and metallic sight competitors on their toes. Yes they may look bigger a little farther out but up close they are smaller and only one so it gets shot up quickly. If you think it's easy let me know and I'll have a gun there for you to try. The Peep targets do get rough to see thru the mid-day due to light and shadows so keep that in mind. Early or late are better times for that.
