We had beautiful weather for the match today, match theme was ww1 and only one person was not shooting the rifle of the month. Steve had some problems with his sight slipping so didn't finish this month. Welcome to Ezra, and welcome back to David. We were very close with Bob, Me and Allen just one point apart. Allen shot a great score to win the match today, including a clean rapid fire prone with a very nice tight group in his rapid fire, and setting a new bolt RF prone record with 100-6V Congrats!

This is a blog for information relating to Vintage Military Rifle and Pistol competions run in Sherwood, Oregon. This discipline combines all of collecting, fixing and understanding the designs of old weapons, custom reloading/bullet casting, and marksmanship. Many of these old rifles have simplistic sights and force you to take detailed notes of positions, sight picture and aiming point since you can't just dial in a simple 6 oclock hold.
