Sorry for the slow posting of the results but only so many hours in a day and my days have been packed lately. Weather was really nice and Friday and Sunday were especially nice with nearly zero wind. Some excellent scores were shot, I may have to do something to keep challenging the...
Time again for another wonderful but frustrating Topstraps Longrange (Midrange) Rimfire Match at my range. I'll be here from Friday thru Sunday (July 8th, 9th, and 10th.) from about 8:00 AM till it starts to get dark. Don't wait until evening hoping for calm winds and hope to shoot since there...
Sorry for the delay in getting this months match report out. Busy all day on Monday and storms have electricity and cell phones down today.. I want to thank eveyrone that came and shot my match. Knowing the cost of gas and ammo it's getting more expensive to do what we enjoy. Was a super busy...
I'm in Eastern Ohio, St. Clairsville. We shoot peep sights all the time. I have a separate 4moa target on each rack just for the iron sight competitors. They shoot that target the same number of times that the scoped shooters have targets on their rack. Many of the targets on the regular racks...

I spot for every shooter that shoots my longrange rimfire matches and even though some say their gun really likes CCI SV I watch each round impact the targets from 25 to 197 yards and I haven't seen any CCI that is as consistent as the higher end Lapua, SK or Eley stuff. You may get a few that...
Wanted to thank everyone that braved the cold wet weekend to attend my match. This is getting kinda old with the rain and cold, sooner or later I'll get lucky and have a decent three days for the shooters. No one complained but the conditions weren't favorable for high scores. There were some...

Well, where to start? Based on this year I'm going to wait till May to start matches next year. First I decided to correct a curve in the creek that slipped in and forced the creek to flow out into the yard/range. As soon as I did that it rained every day it seemed and I had a real mud hole from...

Took along my Remington 40X to Rayners and tried stretching its legs a bit. Was a bit breezy but at times held steady for a while. After working my way from 235 out thru 400 yards we moved over to the 500 yard target. Took a couple shots to get the wind right due to facing a different direction...
