CA Long Range regional and State Championship

I had a good time. You guys have a nice range and facility. I will definitely be back next year!!

The wind can be tricky there that’s for sure.

Attendance 7 years ago.
Despite laws, regulations and migration to other states, 2019 is the best attendance I have seen.

Lets’s hope for an even better 2020!

The range has changed a bit (I see a new range cover, very nice!), it looks a lot browner than I remember, the scores have most definitely changed since 2012 (much harder to bring home a Bear now), and the attendance has increased markedly. One thing that hasn't changed, Nik's name is still at the top of the F-TR list ;). Nice shooting everyone!
 
Those of you who have sent me bolts will recognize my name as next to last in F-Open HM. Building rifles is easier than shooting them, at least for me.

Beautiful weather. As an engineer I notice the details of how things are put together. Somebody there at CRPA has a good mechanical talent. The pits/target holders are well made, well balanced, and smooth. the shooting area is perfectly shaded and flat. Somebody planted some nice trees 30 year ago for shade. the clubhouse/eating area is first class. Can't wait for next year.

This was my first time to Coalinga. Excellent facility and well run match. The only suggestion I would make is don't pair husband and wife teams, just for appearances.

I shot well but chased the wind twice when I should have waited it out and had a loose string the start of the second day. Gave my rifle a light cleaning after the first day which turned out to take too much copper off. Next time I'll use carbon cleaner only.
