Extreme Benchrest 2017

Reo Salado range


I am in Mesa AZ, and it is the first day of Extreme BR! Arimo Dave is with me and today we are going to the Reo Salado range to sight in and to see if I have a spot in the American Field Target match.

This match is based on the airgun Field Target format except that the targets are twice as big and stretch the maximum distance from55 yards to 100. Last year, my rifle failed to hold pressure just before the start and I did not shoot the course.  This year I lam back with different rifle, but I am on a waiting list for a slot in the match.

This year my rifle is a .25 second generation Marauder with a UTG scope set to 20 power. I will shoot from a stool and use a bipod. This set up has work well for me in Hunter Field Target.  

 Wish me luck!
