Congratulations to Brian Chilson, winner of the August 2015 BPCR match at Ridgway PA. Brian won a chicken shoot-off against Dave Heeter. Both competitors scored a 30 with exactly the same score for each animal, but Brian edged out Dave by a single chicken.

It was a mostly sunny day, with temperatures in the upper 70s and light breezes. But the mirage was subtle and difficult to read. Greg Lauver took 3rd Open with a 26. Brian Chilson earned First Scope with a 30, followed by Greg Lauver at 27 and Grant Rogers with 26. Complete results are below.

The Most Improved Shooter award goes to the person with the greatest difference between this month's match score and their lowest score for the year. Grant Rogers earned this month's prize. If you've had an especially unlucky day this year, next month's prize could be yours!

Thanks to Ridgway Rifle Club for your continued support, and the substantial improvements you've been making to the range. Those who attended June's "underwater" match will be happy to hear that the firing line has been regraded, with a new drain so we aren't lying in puddles. And as always, thanks to the folks who helped with setting and painting targets, cleaning the clubhouse, calling relays, emptying trash, and pitching in with whatever needed doing.

On a side note, Staurday after the main match we’re thinking of having a side match. five sighters and five shots for score in 7 mintues 30 seconds at the Infamous homer. A scaled down buffalo silhouette 980 yards away. open to scoped rifles and iron sights. The iron sight shooters may have the advantage on this one.

The Eastern Regional is next month - two days of 40-shot matches. See you there!
Sincerely,
