5 The first Northern Nevada benchrest match of the 2015 season was the LV/HV Two Gun Nevada State Championship held at the Washoe County Regional Shooting facility north of Reno on May 23rd and 24th. May brought much needed rain to our region that has been plagued with a four year drought and almost no snow over the last winter. The rain brought a lot of mud to contend with over the weekend of the match. Four out of state shooters joined six locals to compete at 200 on Saturday and 100 on Sunday. The first aggregate on Saturday was LV200 in mph winds and the threat of rain. Steve Archibald placed first with a.3737, followed by Mark Ronchetti and Everet Smith. Steve also shot the small group of Next up was HV200 in similar conditions and Jan Sarras placed first with a.3793 agg followed by Everet Smith and Mark Ronchetti who shot the small group of the day with a Sunday brought much lighter but switching wind conditions as we started off with HV100. Steve Archibald shot the only two groups in the teens winning the aggregate with a.2664 and small group of Pete Savage of Arizona placed second and Kelle Baitx, a new benchrest shooter who made the trek all the way from Southern California, placed third. We finished up the weekend with LV100 and Steve Archibald just couldn t be beaten. He won the aggregate with a.2790, followed by his daughter, Sarah, and in third was Pete Savage who shot the small group of The Light Varmint Grand winner was Steve Archibald, with Mark Ronchetti finishing second and Pete Savage placing third. The Heavy Varmint Grand winner was Mark Ronchetti followed by Jan Sarras in second place and Pete Savage in third. Our 2015 Nevada State Two Gun Champion was our match director Steve Archibald. Mark Ronchetti finished in second place, and Pete Savage rounded out the top three. Many thanks to our target pulling/scoring team of Kelly Marsh and Kerry Sarras who tromped through the mud to keep our match running smoothly. Also, thank you to Jan Sarras who crafted three beautiful ball point pens on his lathe to give the top three finishers in the Two Gun.

7 REPEAT! Oak Hill Gun Club June 20, 2015 The word refers to the act of saying or doing something over again. It could also mean redo, duplication, repetition or replay. Some of those who don t hear well are asking to repeat, so here it goes. Jerry Wick wins again. What don t you understand about that? At 100 yards, Jim Carstensen was impressing his son, Ethan and showing him that the old man could still shoot. The Sheriff, Paul Whitmore, was pushing for recognition as a marksman and finished in second place. Jerry, fearing a shut-out, shot the small group at this yardage on his fifth target for third place. Newbie Frank Taucher rounded out the top four and Ethan Carstensen (it s reported he never practices) was the apple of his father s eye when he finished in fifth place. At 200 yards, Mister Jerry Wick was all business and proceeded to kick the rest of the field leaving no doubt. He punctuated the win with another fifth target small group of the day. Keith Christianson gave him some competition, as did Frank Taucher, Jim Carstensen and Jerry King. The Repeater also known as Mister Jerry Wick, just cleaned Oak Hill Gun Club out of wood on this match. This was a challenge match, but there was no one to challenge the Repeater. Therefore, the Grand Agg standings showed Jerry Wick in first, followed by Jim Carstensen, Frank Taucher and Keith Christianson as the top five. We had many witnesses and fellow competitors which are listed on the stat sheets. Please look up your favorite shooter and see where they landed. As always, it takes many to put on this match and I wish to thank Jim Schmidt and Jerry King for their continued and unwavering support as well as Dave Lang, our statistician and Marvin Morgan for his target work.

20 20 Precision Rifleman WWCCA s Wolverine Challenge June 5-6, 2015 Well, we got to the range about four days before the match and the weather was good; nice and comfortable. I am telling you all the good things first. We, Dana, Tim, Dominic, and Bill, got the targets, moving backers, paper work ready for the coming match and 22 shooters showed up. Now that is a good thing. The bad thing is the skies opened up on Saturday, and then really opened up on Sunday. Of course the rain brought out the mosquito population in clouds. This match should have been THE MOS- QUITO CHALLENGE. I have been a member of the WWCCA since about 1996 and have been shooting for a long time and I can never remember it being this different. And once in all of these years, well I can say that is not a bad thing. Anyway enough of ranting, and let s get to the chase. I apologize for the pictures. They had to be taken inside and I am not comfortable with the camera and a whole bunch of other things. That is my excuse. Also, six Canadians showed up to do battle. Outside of one they were all good shooters, EH! Jack Neary marched off with the first segment of LV100 with a.1846 agg followed by Ted Heindselman. To say that Jack showed us the way home would be an understatement. Third was that Canadian Peter Smith, who seems to get in everyone s face, with a Small group was a.117 by Jack Neary. At the HV100 on Saturday afternoon, Peter Smith won with a.1976 agg followed by Stan (the man) Buchtel and Jack Neary in third. The small group in HV was a.106 by Chuck Green. It was obvious that the weather was not a hindrance to these guys. Sunday morning, in the HV200, first place was none other than Rich Quigley with a Good shooting Rich. Second was Lee Hachigian and that pesky Canadian, Peter Smith was third. Small group was Melvin Newransky at a.165. Now we come to the final stage, the LV200. Jack Neary place first at.1940, with Butch Lipscomb second and Randy Johansen, another Canadian, in third. Small group was a.221 by Randy Johansen. The Grand s were interesting to say the least, LV Grand was Jack Neary.1983, with Tim Bassham.second and last but not least, Butch Lipscomb in third. The HV Grand winner was Rich Quigley, along with Peter Smith in second and Lee Hachigian in third. The Two Gun winner was Jack Neary with a.2141, followed by Peter Smith and Lee Hachigian. Butch Lipscomb placed fourth and rounding out the top five was Tim Bassham.

24 24 Precision Rifleman Northern Colorado s Hunter & VFS Howdy all! Wiley E Coyote reporting from Northern Colorado Benchrest Shooters. Our first match of the year was held May 2-3. Gorgeous weather for shooting graced 13 shooters who came out for Hunter and Varmint for Score matches. Hunter and Varmint shooters lined up at the benches, rifles at the ready and bolts in hand. Everyone was eager to get started on the 100 yards target. Yours truly took the 1st place position with a Score of X. I was quite shocked and happy with my performance to start the season off. The first highest X-count went to our very own Norm Wills with 17X. Great shooting Norm! After target frames were moved to 200 yards we all lined up again with bolts raised to the sky. Barry Benson was our afternoon trophy taker with an awesome score of 250-9X. Barry also took the high X-count for 200 yards. Way to go Barry! The Grand Agg for the day went to Barry as well with a score of X. He is definitely out to win it! What a great score Barry! Sunday s 200 yard match was dominated by one of our regular lady shooters; Muriel Hensley, who shot a beautiful score of X. Even though Ron Hensley tried to overtake the win, Muriel claimed the high X-count too! Beautiful shooting Muriel! After a quick lunch break to move the targets and settle down from the excitement of the morning, we went to the line. With five shooters all sporting 250 aggs, Don Carter was the top dog with his score of X and highest X-count. Great shooting Don! As the shooters began packing up, the scores were being finalized and trophies were set out. The yard win for the day went to Don Carter with his combined Agg of X. Now a score of 500 is a coveted score by shooters all around, but I haven t seen the winning score Barry Benson took for the 2 day Agg 1st place position very often. Barry blew our hats off with a winning score of X. You couldn t have pulled Barry from the clouds with a 10 ton weight. Congratulations Barry! As always, none of this could happen without the shooters who come to play and the top notch staff, match director and target crew. We hope you come to join us at any of our matches. --LuAnn Dill Day 1: 100-Yards LuAnn Dill X Phillip Sheldon X Ronald Hensley X Irv Sheldon X Barry Benson X Dean Thomas X Tom Evans X Bud Schalles X Muriel Hensley X Cliff McNairy X Norm Willis X Al Johnson X Don Carter X Day 1: 200-Yards Barry Benson X Muriel Hensley X Phillip Sheldon X Dean Thomas X Ronald Hensley X Don Carter X Norm Willis X Cliff McNairy X Tom Evans X LuAnn Dill X Bud Schalles X Irv Sheldon X Al Johnson X Day 1: Grand Aggregate Barry Benson X Phillip Sheldon X Dean Thomas X Ronald Hensley X Muriel Hensley X Tom Evans X LuAnn Dill X
