Did anyone make it out to the Western Double Rifle Championship that Butch sponsored?

If so, how was it?

You guys in the Sacromento area that missed this shoot, missed a good time as well as an informative one. The event started at 8:30 am and ended with the last contestant at 4:00 pm. As soon as I get all the names and details from the event handler I'll post more details. The gentleman that won first place used a Krieghoff 500 N.E. and boy could he shoot, second was also a Krieghoff 7X64 R I believe, and third was a Searcy 470 N.E. shot by Greg Allyn (Surestrike).

Thanks for the update, Butch. I was trying to get my old man to go out, but his surgery was scheduled for a week before and wasn't comfortable flying to the west coast while still healing.

I had too many obligations at home, so I couldn't attend Frowner

Butch:

Sorry I missed it, as I only live about 15 miles from where it was held, but with as much as I have been away from home lately my wife suggested that if I went I better not come home. The up side is that she actually suggested that barring some financial disaster, I order a rifle from you after the first of the year.
