    Results July 2025 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    Yay, finally had a nice weekend for a match. Was a bit hot and muggy but no storms or high winds to contend with. It was a good turnout with 37 entries and some really great scores. With the pursuit of the high end ammo and shooter skills getting better I'm gonna have to do a target rack shift I...

    My adventure into Long Gong (kinda)

    I've been a Longrange competitor since the Seventies starting in IHMSA but have always played with seeing how far I could get a 22 rimfire to shoot and hit things farther than most thought possible since I was in 4th grade shooting at a muskrat every morning before leaving for school that swam...

    Results June 2025 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    June match is history with three days of really calm winds, A couple sprinkles on Friday and a downpour so heavy on Sunday I could not see the targets past 150 yards, It didn't last long. Turnout was kinda down compared to last year but maybe due to high prices for everything, multiple shoots or...

    May 2025 Topstraps Rimfire Match Results

    The May match turned out pretty good. Less people, more new shooters I think than regulars but maybe being Mothers Day kept some away or maybe getting boring. I switched some racks around to shake it up a bit, some might stay in place others will be returned to their regular spot but for sure...

    Results April 2025 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    April shoot is in the books, was REALLY cold and blustery on Friday, started off cold and calm but as the day went on wind picked up. Saturday was a bit better but could still see your breath and Sunday got up to 60 and decent. Not a big turnout, not sure if cold conditions, a few other shoots...

    April 2025 Topstraps Longrange (Midrange) Rimfire Challenge

    Spring is finally here, well maybe but it's coming. I'm going to have my Long Range (Midrange) Rimfire matches again this summer. I think this is going on the 14th or 15th year and it's amazing to see how far this longer distance 22 rimfire shooting has progressed. We used to get eye rolls and...

    Lapua SLR versus 338 Norma for longrange? It really is about Lapua SLR ammo.

    Tried to think of a catchy title for this thread something like 338 Norma versus 22 Rimfire for Long Range or 22 Rimfire humbles a 338 Norma at Rayners Range today or some other catchy title but not sure what I'll do. This is mainly a thread about our day out and some things to pass along to...

    Results September 2024 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    August match is in the books and was a low turnout. It was windier than normal except for about an hour on Friday morning for the first two competitors. Saturday was really bad and only two shooters braved the wind but still shot well. Friday and Sunday were both shifty breezy wind and there...

    Some ammo accuracy sharing and a "betcha ain't seen one of these before"

    In between lulls in the shooters waiting to shoot I dug an old project out I'd experimented with a few years ago. After hearing a buddy telling a couple of other competitors about it I dug deep into the vault and retrieved it. I had only shot the old Wolf Target in it but it shot amazing well. I...

    What a great weekend for a match. Other than some crazy wind coming out of nowhere on Sunday afternoon it was beautiful and calm conditions. A lot of great scores were shot but those that battled thru the wind on Sunday endured some wild conditions. I had to let some have extra sighter shots...

    Results June 2024 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    The June match was much nicer weather wise than May with having no rain at all but the winds were higher. Friday was terrible, the tops of the trees were going back and forth at least 6 ft and all the trees down both sides of the range were just swirling all different directions. The ones that...
