    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...

    Results July 2024 Topstraps Rimfire Challenge

    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...

    Short testimony with Arken scopes

    I've been a big fan of Arken scopes for quite a while since a shooting buddy (Randy Wise) showed me his first one. Nearly all my longrange rimfire competition guns and a couple 1000 yard CF guns wear them. I posted this response to a PM from another person that just received his new Arken and...

    Trying some high end ammo at 300 yards.

    I have been wanting to test some higher grade ammo in a couple different guns on the 3 different sided steel plates in the Long Gong competition game. It's a relatively new game and the rules are pretty simple but can be frustrating. 8", 6" and a 4" swinger. Hit the 8" worth 1 point you may move...

    Stolen Gun

    This is a gun a friend gifted to his Son. Very special paint on it. If you are out and about or a gun show keep your eyes peeled. It sits in an original 7 Fingers aluminum chassis. It has a 7F inside a circle, there aren't many of these out there. I would like to ask everyone to keep an eye out...
