It was a light turnout with the storms forecast. And it did storm but it was still a great match.

Couple of funky looking rifles I was up against in UL

 

[MUP]

How did they perform? Those strange chassis rifles?

S Mason was on one and came in 2nd. He was UL shooter of year last year K Norcutt was on the other.

That's what they call a rail gun

So basically a barreled action clamped into a steel frame looks like?

Yeah but they're mostly aluminum I think. Kieth said his weighed about 80 pounds I didn't ask Scot what his weighed

So basically you were competing against machines, not shooters.
Looks like you did excellent.

They still gotta read the conditions and know where to hold and when to shoot and when not to shoot

These guns are not shooting. If anything they sound be in a class by themselves. I would be embarrassed if I won with one of these against regular rifles.

Unlimited class is just that. If you can carry to the bench it's good to go.

Sorry I didn't know.

Great Job Eric!

That's why our .22 LR match designation is for no 1 piece rests. Bipod or front bag and a rear bag only. You can have $1200-$1500 front coaxial rests even but they have to be separate from the rear rest. It keeps the shooter in the mix more I think. But unlimited is just that, unlimited, and you're liable to see almost anything on the bench.

I had not realized this was a state championship match, that's an awesome win in unlimited.

State matches come with bonus points for SSOY for top three places. The Nationals the top 5 get bonus points.

Oh and yes, excellent shooting against those guys Eric! That's a hard row to hoe!

Congratulations Eric. Fine shooting.
