Match 5 and 6 are now complete for the NorthWest Montana 1000 Yard Benchrest Association. May brought much warmer temps than April offered. Match temperatures were in the low to mid 70’s, which afforded shooters some pretty favorable conditions. There were some pretty good groups and scores shot this weekend. Cody Finch nailed a 5.368″ Perfect 100 score in Saturdays Light gun relay. Sunday provided another 100 score shot by Lonnie Anderson. This was also in the Light gun relay. Lonnie’s group measured 5.875. We look forward to seeing everyone next month for our June match.
