A clear sky, warm temperatures, and no too little wind greeted the shooters. It was also the inaugural use of electronic targets at the Washoe County Range. The match was completed in record time since there were no pit changes. All the shooters were in favor of the new electronic targets and they will be […]
My apologies to everyone for this post being late. It was super windy for the match on June 8, but our resident wind whisperers were not afraid! Without further adieu, here are the scores I failed to post on time: Name Class Squirrel (8) Crow (8) Chuck (8) Rabbit (8) Coyote (8) Total Class Up […]
It was completely overcast and threatening to rain so we held off for an hour and got a small window where the rain stopped and the wind died. A small practice session was held and we had to quit when it started to rain and blow.
There wasn’t much wind starting out but it was looking grim with overcast and showers moving in from the south. The first target, first relay was ok and then it started to shower for the next target and shooters had to put on rain gear. By the time the next target was shot, the showers […]
Putting up the flags prior to the match, it looked like weather was going to hold off and go around the range. It got darker and darker and then started to rain. Waiting about 40 minutes, the sky lightened up and it became partly cloudy with the generally unreadable, unpredictable spring winds. Everyone shot it […]
A super fun, wet, and cold start gave way to a nice day of shooting for us over at NorNev Precision. We even had a couple of new shooters from California brave the pass and join us for all the fun! A lot of our regulars were out prepping for other matches but we still […]
The 18 MAY 2019 match was our second of the year and, though the forecast didn’t look too wonderful, we had a VERY nice day to shoot with mostly comfortable temperatures, on and of sunshine and pretty much NO WIND for a change! AND, we had some quite good scores with several shooters moving up […]
The day started with a high overcast and lazy flags and it stayed that way for the entire match. The wind stayed down along with the temperature all day. There was some mirage although the sun never shined. It was a day to see how well a shooter can read the mirage. 200-20X Possible […]
Ten shooters enjoyed perfect weather and each other’s company for this year’s second Vintage Military Silhouette Match. Surprisingly there was no wind! “No way!” you say? Well, here’s a photo to prove it: (More photos here.) And for the second month in a row, an overcast sky meant every target was clearly visible. (Well, except […]
What a day! The wind cooperated so much that no one was ready for it. Great match though, with lots of fun and even another few new shooters. The next Varmint match is 8 June, and we look forward to seeing everyone out there before the July heat hiatus! Congratulations to the class winners this […]
