We had beautiful weather and a very nice turnout today, glad to see everyone and the new shooters. Welcome to Geoffrey and Luke, hope to see you again. Eric brought a very nice sig barreled Remington 91 mosin that was converted by the finns to an M-24 guard rifle, very unusual. Bob shot a very respectible score to win the rifle match. Pistol scores were very good today. Eric shot a personal best with his Lahti. Since I was recovering from my bicep surgery I shot the match one handed, but my old colt still shot very well.

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.
