A few pics of the Best of the west ELR match

I’m hoping to compete in it next year.
Nice spot and typical east side winds especially Saturday for big gun.
Light gun on Sunday had some pretty interesting winds as well.

It was a fun match. Jump in and shoot it. I am not sure how far the Mud Springs match is from. Its north of Bend. That is a good one too. They shoot matches there in Spring and Fall.

I would have this year but my 338 barrel died this winter and I had cut a new one a few days before the match.
I’ll look into mud springs.

Ugh!! That's happened to me before. I have started keeping a fresh, chambered barrel ready to go for all my match rifles now so I am not out of the game when one dies unexpectedly. Now I hoard blanks in addition to components! lol

Looked on YouTube for this match, but didn't see a video. Looks like a beautiful range. Where is it located?

I had the barrels but we’re reorganizing our lathe room at work and I didn’t have the lathe I use for barrels leveled and wired until recently ‍
