Beautiful day of shooting today. A mix of rifles today, springfields, M1's and a finn, argentine and a Romy G ak with donkey D**ck forend. Scores were pretty close today. Curtis shot a great score with my former FR-8 rifle. Allen suggested in September since I will be gone they might do a rifle of the month theme called "Rifles Frank has sold to us"....we'll see:) Pistol was well attended and people liked the action range a bit better. Olivia shot an excellent score with her VZ-61 to win the match beating the "old man" for the first time. I had some issues with some new bullets in my luger keyholing at 21 yards, so had four misses in the shoulder area because of that. Allen was close behind followed by Steve.
See you then:

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.
