.22LR 50yd BR Results – 05.11.12

Emailed May 11, 2020

Dear LVSA Members and Friends:

The May 11 edition of the 2020 .22LR 50yd Bench Rest series saw conditions vary from sunny, to overcast, to gentle rain, with winds mainly from the north (green flags), with varying intensity, but dropping to near zero as the match ended, temperatures were cool. All in all, a typical mid-May Wyoming day.

Thirty-one scores were logged, two with irons and 29 with scopes. These numbers bring the total for this series to 6,002 since Match #1 in August 2011. Bruce Berg won that match with a 390-8X. Arne Moilenen placed second with a 374-6X. We’ve come a long way.

Scores were respectable (good going, shooters) with the first 400-40X of the year (congratulations Tom Spriggs). This is only the 18^th 400-40X scored in 5,163 scope matches since 2011; just under 0.35%. That is a mighty high bar to reach.

Many thanks to all helpers and shooters. See you all next Monday when temps are forecast to be in the 70’s (we shall see).

And remember, on Sat May 16, the club will host our annual 100rnd/100yd HP Off-Hand match (starting time 10:00am). Also on Sun May 17, we will shoot the season’s third SB/HP Silhouette match (starting time 9:00am). Both will be directed by Roger Sebesta. Safe shooters and spectators are welcome.
