300-Yard Match Results
May 17, 2008

The day started out overcast and windy, with intermittent rain showers, to keep the event interesting. I was forced to retreat under the truck's bed cover at times to keep my paperwork from melting.

In spite of threatening weather conditions, 22 brave shooters challenged the tricky conditions. As an example, one target face was torn loose from the backer by a strong gust of wind. We all learned what affect the changing air currents had on the path of our well aimed bullets.

Kevin Casper was the only junior shooter and posted a very respectable score on the difficult F-Class target. Good job Kevin! John Klein treated all of the shooters and bystanders to some pyrotechnics on the third relay by shooting his Civil War era trap door 45-70 black powder cartridge Springfield musket. That was quite an experience listening to the VOOOOOMMM of each shot followed by a huge billowing cloud of white smoke.

And lastly, I'd like to thank all those who helped out with safety and range operations. Without your assistance, I'd be relegated to spectator status only. I hope once the weather becomes more favorable, many more of our members and guests will bring out their closet-queens for some range fun!
