Just a side note … since you started the Factory class we have had hardly any participation in the Sportsman class. We are pulling in a lot of ARA shooters and their comments have been overwhelmingly positive.

Events 2024 National 50 Benchrest League Championship, NRA Whittington Center, Raton, NM, 8/23-8/25

- Start date
Yo Jim, looking forward to seeing you again. John & your son coming too?
Factory class spun off so the Tikkas & CZs can play. Factory is a try-out this year to see if it will attract attention - as you can see it did . We will probably add it to the schedule next year (2025) but yikes that weekend will be busy.
So Factory can compete in Sportsman Class. It should be a bit more friendly than Pro. On the other hand not a lot of Pro competitors show up so there is room.
Thanks to you Tim, nice job promoting. Fresno shoots a lot of Factory too.

Lou, I was asking mainly for my son, who is interested is shooting Rimfire over pcps.
I think I am solo this year, but we will see if John and Cory can make it.
Happy to have this to look forward to. It's the highlight of my summer.

All our faces are wind burned, the flags today looked like hula dancers pulling out of a drive thru car wash. Wind was pretty tough, but we had some guys achieve what i declare a shooting miracle in todays conditions. Everyone is having a big time, lotta laughs, good fun with a great bunch of folks.
