Dear .22LR 50yd BR Fans and Friends:
Memorial Day 2015: We started the match with a brief word to remember all in service who gave their lives for our country.
May 2015 will probably go down as one of the wettest May’s in Lander’s history. But while it rained in town, the weather for today’s .22LR 50yd Bench Rest Fun Shoot was just about perfect: temps were in the high 50’s, skies were partly cloudy, and the wind (our friend) was interesting, varying in intensity as well as direction.
A record 47 matches were logged, five in irons and 42 in scopes. One of the scopes was a partial for which the Match Director, yours truly, takes responsibility, so only 41 full scores were recorded.
A 200-20X was shot today by Tom Spriggs with his Kimber. This is only the 7th target at this level out of 3,546 scope scores recorded since this series started back in 2011. Congratulations Tom.
Bruce Campbell shot a 200-19X score in irons. This is the highest iron sight target of the 756 recorded to date. Congratulations Bruce.
There are many hands who help with the many aspects of running a successful match. My thanks are given to all of those. And as always, many thanks to all who showed up to compete. A good time was had by all.
Charlie Piette
