NAGS January 10th, 2009 25 and 50 yd Benchrest competition

The day started off with having to put the truck into 4 wheel drive just to get out of the residential streets here in town. Clint, Cassie and I being 15 minutes early to the shoot were thinking we would be the first to arrive. Not so. A couple of the club members had beaten us to “City NAGS”, what we now call our indoor shooting facility.
Within 15 minutes the other shooters were showing up and shooting tables and targets/lights were being set up. We had a good turnout of 8 shooters counting a new junior shooter, Andrew.

I showed up with my new Korick EV-2 and Nikko Stirling 10x50x50N with expectations to pull off a double win with the 25 and 50 yd benchrest. Well my plan did didn’t work out that way. Clint was sporting a new T-36 target scope done in silver and that seemed to draw as much attention as the EV-2. Glenn was soon to be pulling out the Rapid MFR he recently acquired and that would soon prove to be the downfall of all the other shooters’ hopes of taking home the traveling trophy.

There were no springers in today’s competition so we all were shooting in open class.

Even though there were only 8 shooters, it seems as if we were just as concerned about talking airguns as we were shooting as the shoot lasted four hours before we could pack up and go home. Everyone had a good time for sure and having a new junior shooter coming into the club it made for a good day for sure.

Glenn Shrank pulled off the double win and now has the traveling trophy to keep until the next shoot scheduled for February 14, 2009 at 12:30 PM
