Fort Wayne Rifle and Revolver Club

Well, it took two years, but it was worth it.

Geoff started his Distinguished Rifleman journey in June of 2022, earning 6 Distinguished points in the infamous boat match (the day the boat ran up on the rocks at Viale range).  He earned 10 points at the Camp Perry NTI matches in 2022 and 2023.  But, pursuit of Distinguished can be frustrating.  Geoff took First Leather several times at other matches – and at Camp Atterbury last weekend he missed the cut by several points while his daughter Miss Emma took home her first eight points.  But Camp Perry has been his happy place for leg points. 

Geoff started the match Sunday with 26 leg points and he already had his hard points – it was still just a matter of cranking out those last four points – but still not an easy task.  As Geoff and Emma started the walk down Viale Range on Sunday morning, it was raining lightly.  But, by the time they reached the 200 yard line, the rain had stopped completely.  In Geoff’s own words; “Right then I knew God was on my side today.  It wasn’t an easy day – wind conditions were right at our backs all day making Offhand a real challenge for most everyone.”

For the day, Geoff shot a 475-14X, good for second place of Non-Distinguished shooters and eleventh overall in the match and 8 leg points – giving him a total of 34 points; four more than he needed to close out Distinguished Rifleman!  In an impromptu ceremony after the match, Mike King presented Geoff with a Distinguished Rifleman hat pin to commemorate the occasion.  Depending on how quickly scores are processed, Geoff will probably be formally recognized at a Distinguished Rifleman Ceremony at the 2024 National Matches.

Geoff acknowledges that without the encouragement and support of his father-in-law, long time FWRR member John Halter, he would have never grown to love and appreciate this sport! 

Now Miss Emma – it’s your turn to take up the Distinguished Rifleman challenge!

On Saturday, June 15, Emma Branson  won the ISRPA EIC Match at Camp Atterbury with a score of 479-12x beating 30 other competitors. She was awarded 8 distinguished points, her first, and she will receive a Bronze EIC Medal as well as a gold CMP regional medal for her win. This win counts as her “hard” leg (a win of 8 or 10 points).  A shooter must achieve 30 points to become distinguished – one of which must be a hard leg.

Emma shot strings of 91-1X Offhand; 99-4X Rapid Sitting, 97-3X Rapid Prone and 192-4X Slow Prone.  Interestingly – none of these scores was a stage winner, but her consistency across the course took top honors for the day. Emma was two points ahead of fellow FWRR member Mike King who shot a 479-14X.

Congratulations Emma on an outstanding job, great way to begin your journey to becoming Distinguished!

As the Indiana Junior State Championship match opened, the question was; “Will Madelyn repeat as State Champion for a fourth time, or will someone upset her?”  Competition is intense for the top spot.  Madelyn has been working and hasn’t shot for a month. Emma is shooting Master scores and Marshall is always there at the top; Logan is consistently a strong contender. Will this be the year when the Madelyn’s winning series is broken?

Nope – not this year!

Saturday, June 8 was a beautiful day for a State Championship – nine Junior shooters from across Indiana gathered at the Fort Wayne Rifle and Revolver Club for the Fourth Annual State Championship. The day had comfortable temperatures, beautiful light and although there was a pretty good breeze at times – it was not a factor in most of the match.

Once the match got underway, it was apparent that Madelyn was the champion to beat.  One of the sayings of high power shooters is that you can’t win a match in the Offhand stage, you can lose it there – but Madelyn dominated Offhand with a 193-5X, 10 points ahead of Logan Becker.  In Sitting Rapid, Logan gained one point against Madelyn, but as the match moved back to 300-yards – Logan trailed by 9 points.

In the Prone Rapid fire string, Logan and Madelyn went head to head with both posting 198 scores; Logan with a 198-8X to Madelyn’s 198-4X. But at the Slow Prone stage, Madelyn took command again posting a 200-14X clean score for a match aggregate of 790-33X; dropping only 10 points across the whole match.

Awards:

Madelyn Schnelle                   State Champion; Gold Medal          790 – 33X

Logan Becker                          Silver Medal                                        776 – 20X

Emma Branson                       Bronze Medal                                      764 – 11X

First High Master                   Madelyn Schnelle                              790 – 33X

First Expert                             Emma Branson                                   764 – 11X

First Sharpshooter                 Mia King                                              752 –   7X

First Marksman                      Tayt Shaffer                                         613 –   5X

First Offhand                          Madelyn Schnelle                               193 –   5X

First Sitting Rapid                   Madelyn Schnelle                             199 – 10X

First Prone Rapid                   Logan Becker                                      198 –   8X

First Slow Prone                     Madelyn Schnelle                              200 – 14X

Incidentally, there was an “Old Guy” match being shot along with the Junior State Championship.  Mike King, a consistent ISRPA State Champion contender, was shooting on the same firing point as Madelyn and as the day went on, they were head to head for high match aggregate.  The contest went down to the last shot in the Slow Prone Stage.  Madelyn had finished with 790-33X, but Mike was at 780-34X.  If Mike shot another 10, he would have bragging rights for the day– but he missed a slight wind shift and his last shot was a 9! 

WIN, MADELYN!

In the afternoon, there was a Garand Match where many of the Juniors shot the Classic rifles.  It was a great close to a great day of shooting.

As many members have been aware, we have had a contest for the last several months to count the number of bullets in a jar as a fund raiser for our Juniors.

A beautifully refinished Winchester Model 94 (refinished by FWRR member Mike Toscos) in caliber .30-30 was donated as the prize for the individual who made the best count of the bullets in the jar.

The jar was opened at the Junior High Power Championship Match on June 8th and a counting committee determined that there were 337 bullets in the jar. When the entry slips were reviewed, Mike King had counted 338 – closest count and only off by one bullet.

Thanks to everyone who entered the contest; we will use these funds to buy Creedmoor 1-inch PoleCat scope mounts for our Juniors.

WOW!  What a match!  One of the things I heard as feedback from shooters was that we should have more  3 x 20 300-yard prone matches, so I slipped in a 3 x 20 on the weekend before Mid-Summer Madness.  And, to paraphrase from the movie; “Schedule It and They WiIl Come”.

We had twenty-one (that’s right, 21) shooters for the day and they came to shoot.  Of the 21 shooters, four were Juniors and we were graced by one Great-Grand Senior shooter; Jack Baker from Lima, Ohio.

For most of the week we had been threatened with a rainy morning, but the rain held off until well into the afternoon and we shot the match under excellent conditions.  We shot in two classes, iron sight and scope classes.

Iron Sight Match

“Target seven, another X .. target seven, another X …” and so on for a total of  “Target seven, another X …” 47 times.  Joe Bakies dominated in the iron sight tournament with a triple clean 600-47X.  What a shooting lesson.  The folks watching on their displays were shaking their heads in amazement.  Great match Joe.  Tom Bonner took second with a 587-19X and Norbert Norton was third with a 572-17X.

Scope Match

The scope match was an 18-shooter match and the shooters put up some impressive scores.  Mark Walters took the top place with a 593-20X followed closely by Ron Dague with 592-31X; both shooting Match Rifles.  Ashley Stevens from Maumee, Ohio was third with a Service Rifle and a 590-30X score. Two Match Rifle shooters closed out the top five – Mark Richard with 585-23X and Aaron Kohler with 582-15X.

Thanks to all of the shooters who came out for the day.  We had a hiccup with one of the targets that made us shuffle shooters and target assignments – I appreciate everyone’s patience.

Our next Matches are the Mid-Summer Madness Weekend matches; a 50-round NMC on Friday afternoon June 7 at 4:30, an 80-round CMP Match on Saturday at 9:00 that will include the Indiana Junior High Power Championship – followed in the afternoon by a Garand/Service/Military Match. On Sunday we will shoot a 50-round NMC in the morning and another 50-round 100-yard match to close out the afternoon.

The range safety system is getting close to being finished.  We had a spell of “good enough” weather on Tuesday, so we pulled in all of the wiring to the north stations and over the week we have two more switch stations active.

We ended up needing two pieces of plastic fittings and some odd hardware to finish the job, so it’s not totally done yet.

Five of the six control stations are active; all of the switches on the 100-yard line and the end switches by the concrete benches are live and can be used to control the strobe/horn units on the 100-yard positions.  We have the pieces and parts we need to finish up – we just need to get everyone healthy enough to finish it off.

A reminder: 

1. When shooters want to go downrange, place the switch at a control station in the up (HORN/STROBE) position to call a CEASE FIRE.  Announce:  “CEASE FIRE, THE RANGE IS COLD”.  Everyone put down their guns – actions open and do not handle guns while people are downrange.  Once everyone has acknowledged that a CEASE FIRE is in place, put the switch in the down (STROBE) position.  The flashing strobes mean that someone is downrange.  If multiple shooters go downrange, everyone should place a switch in the STROBE position.

2. When all shooters return to the firing line, one shooter needs to place the switch in the up (HORN/STROBE) position to get everyone’s attention.  Once everyone is back, and the line wants to go HOT; return all switches to the middle (OFF) position. Announce; “THE LINE IS HOT”.

 ALL switches must be OFF to turn off the strobe lights – any switch, anywhere, in the STROBE position will keep the light flashing. (Any switch, anywhere, in HORN/STROBE will keep that annoying horn sounding as well)

It will be a bit before we get the last wiring done, but it is getting close to being finished.  Thank you for your patience.

It’s getting to be a jungle or hayfield out on most of the range. Several places were too wet to mow in the last session and they are almost knee high now.

The range will be closed Tuesday morning for the mowing crews to harvest the hay crop.

On occasion everything comes together to make a beautiful day for a High Power Match and Saturday, 18 May was just exactly that day.  The threat of rain earlier in the week was gone, the skies were clear and blue, there was almost no wind all day and what wind there was came from straight downrange and cooled rather than bothered.  It did get warm, but not the “I’m cooking in this coat” warm.

And – in response to the great day we had 23 shooters come to the line at 8:00, the largest number of shooters we have had in a while.  This was a 50/80 Match where shooters may elect to shoot either a 50 round or 80 round course of fire. The matches are fired concurrently; we had 15 shooters in the 80- round match and 8 shooters in the 50-round match.

All of the shooters did well and the match moved right along with very few delays of any sort; we fired in three relays and we finished the last relay at 12:33.  Great job shooters – you make it easy on the Range Officer.

In the 80 round Match, the top three shooters were:

First                      Mike King                           784-28X

Second                 Mark Walters                    775-22X

Third                     Gary Mabis                       758-23X

In the 50 round Match, the top two shooters were:

First                      Jeff McCullough                462-4X

Second                 Jerry Johnson                    443-2X  (It’s good to see Jerry back to shooting)

Thanks to Marty Didion who acted as our match statistician and to Gary Mabis who was kind of our handyman who showed up just at the right times in several places where a hand was appreciated.

Our next match is a 3 x 600 (Reduced to 300) prone match on June 1 with our Midsummer Madness Weekend the next week (Friday June 7, Saturday June 8 and Sunday June 9).  Keep an eye out for more information about that series of matches – 5 matches in two-and-a-half days!

We will shoot the Indiana Junior State High Power Championship on Saturday June 8 as part of that series, but there will be openings for just about everyone who wants to shoot that day – not just Juniors.

The Nasty Old Burn Barrels Are Going Away

Burn barrels have been a fixture in the pistol bays for as long as most people can remember.  While they do reduce the amount of trash residue, they don’t eliminate it (some stuff doesn’t burn and there are ashes and slag left).  And – once the burn barrel rusts and burns out – the barrel itself remains as a trashy item.

Over the next several weeks, the old burn barrels and ash piles in the pistol bays will go away.  They will not be replaced and users are requested not to bring in any new barrels. Trash cans and garbage bags will be provided for clean up after scheduled matches that generate larger amounts of trash.

Shooters are requested to take their range trash (shot up targets, scrap brass, target backers, pop cans and such) back home with them. 

Don’t just throw your trash in a pile and hope someone else cleans up after you – we’re not your mother picking up your dirty socks and underwear!

Cleanup Day is Saturday, April 27th. 

Projects will include grading, trimming brush along the lane, cutting up a fallen tree, marking the property perimeter (using purple paint), repairing target frames, assembling shooting stools, and repairing the damage done to the 100 yard firing point on the 300 yard portion of the main range.

The equipment need to perform these tasks includes:  pruning equipment, chain saws, trucks/trailers (to haul brush), general carpentry tools, tape measures, chaulk lines, a level, shovels, rakes, screw guns and work gloves. 

Support your club, meet new friends, and enjoy a pizza lunch.  

The 2024 High Power season opened on Saturday with a 50/80 match.  This was a “fun” match to let us work out the kinks, find the things that we had forgotten and the things we needed to work on before we shoot a match for CMP or NRA classifications.

And, there were several things we forgot.  As we started shooting, some people reported cross fires on their targets, some folks had missing shots on targets and even some shooters had no issues at all.  What in the world was going on?

We called “CEASE FIRE” and went down range to straighten things out.  It turned out we had moved the target frames one lane to the right – target 3 was in front of number board 4, five was in front of 6 – and so on all the way down the line.  Shooters on either end of the line just shot the target at the end of the target lines, some shooters in mid line counted targets and some used the number boards. But, we got it figured out and things went on after a bit of confusion,

It was a brisk day, temperatures in the high 40’s, intermittently cloudy, partly cloudy and at times even sunny.  The wind was fairly steady out of the west at about 10 MPH (predominantly from about 12 o’clock).  It wasn’t hand numbing cold, but there were several drippy noses and rosy cheeks.

We had eleven shooters.  We would like to welcome newcomers Charles Novak, Tim Jackson and Jeff McCullough to the high power group.

For the shooters firing the 80-round match, Mike King took top honors with a 785-25X.  Marshall Rohrbach (Junior) took second with 764-16X, Jim Jackson was third with 756-12X and Kileen Shaffer (another Junior) closed out the top four shooters with a 750-13X.

For the 50-round match, Jess Jessup took top honors with a 470-11X followed by Tim Jackson’s 434-4X .

Congratulations to the shooters who came out on top of the standings and Thanks to everyone who came out for the day.  It was a good day.

Next Saturday, April 27 is our Range Clean-up Day. The fun will start about 8:00 depending on task but work will continue until early afternoon, so if you can’t be there early – come on out anyway.

Our next High Power Match will be on Saturday, May 18.  Registration and set-up will start about 7:00.  Registration will close at 7:45 and the first shot will be at 8:00 sharp.  If we have a two or three relay match, we should be done by noon or so, so plan to come out and shoot with us!

By the end of March, High Power shooters begin to get antsy.  Among the gray, wet nasty days there are enough teasingly nice days to make people want to get out to the range and shoot.  A group of guys who had carried on a “half-NMC” competition over the winter wanted to shoot (more about that later) – so with a bit of urging we set up a March Madness 3 x 600 match for March 30th.

March 30 broke dark, gray with intermittent to steady drizzle at start time.  But, the weather did not  stop 10 dedicated high power shooters.  Rain fell steadily as we started setup about 8:30 and we had the usual first match of the season issues.  Folks had to figure out which color cable went where and one server decided to go on strike and it took all of us a while to get things switched over.  By about 9:00 it had slowed down to a sprinkle and we set up canopies on the firing line to keep things dry.

Yeah, it really was that dark as we set up the canopies

But – as the day went on, things improved.  By 10:00 the rain had stopped and midway through the match the sun came out and it was a beautiful day to shoot!

The sun came out and we had beautiful light to shoot

But, with the sun came some wind.  One canopy blew over and another blew around. We moved them out of the way and kept shooting.  It was a laid back match – no time limits, unlimited sighters, along with coaching allowed and help fixing guns. Everyone shot in the same category – a mix of Service, Palma, Match  and F-Class rifles.  At this level of shooting, the shooter is the major factor.  Some fantastic scores were posted for the day.  Sixteen strings of over 195 were posted with five 199’s and 4 perfect 200 strings.

Tom Bonner took top honors for the day (service rifle) with a 598-40X aggregate.  Mike King (service rifle) followed closely with a 597-32X (but, he did get a canopy dropped on his head…) and Bryan Scott took third with 594-21X.

A special note; Jack Baker took the top slot in the Grand Senior Group.  Jack, at 82-years old, is still banging away!

Mark Walters (seated) and Mark Richard in their usual place at the high end of the line.  Mark Richard is determined to make the FatRat shoot!

At the end of the day just about everyone decided that we needed to do it again next year.  And – the  FWRR Juniors benefitted by receiving $100 from match entry fees and another $70 from shooters who donated their prize winnings to the Junior Fund.

WINTER HALF-RMC RESULTS

Over the winter a group of shooters organized a “Half-RMC” Match.  These matches were shot after Winter Offhand matches and at other times.  40-round matches were shot at 100-yards on reduced targets; 10-rounds offhand, sitting rapid, prone rapid and prone slow.  Four matches were shot over the course of the winter and shooters had handicaps (like golf or bowling) to make the matches more competitive.

The top three shooters fired all five matches and the final standings were:

Mark Walters     1982-46X

Gary Mabis          1974-51X

Mike King            1968-53X

Thanks to Gary Mabis for organizing these matches – and thanks to the shooters who contributed $100 in match fees and $30 in prize awards to the FWRR Junior fund.

You’ve heard of Flash Mobs – not a good thing – but we have a Flash Match (a good thing). By popular demand, we have set up a match that we didn’t have on our original 2024 schedule.

On Saturday, 30 March we will have a 3 x 600 (Reduced) match at the FWRR Range. It will be a lot like our Mid-range matches, 3 strings of fire – 20 rounds for record on the MR-63 reduced 60-yard target. Each string will be a 25 – minute time limit with all of the sighters you want to fire before you go for record prior to each string.

We will shoot on electronic targets, so bring your display device and a hot battery for it.

Entry fee is $20.00. This is not a formal match registered with anybody – it’s just us having fun. 50% of entry fees go out as prizes; top three shooters if less than 10 entries – top 5 if 10 or more. This is a benefit match for the Juniors and the “Count the Bullets” Jar will be there with chances to purchase opportunities to make your estimate of the bullets in the jar.

Sign-in and setup will open about 8:00 or 8:15 – registration closes at 8:30 and shooting starts when I get a full relay – or about 9:00 when if looks like everybody who is coming has arrived.

Come on out and get an early start to the 2024 season.

Winter Offhand for the 2023-2024 season is over and as that great philosopher and intellectual Yogi Berra might have put it; “The fat lady has sung”.  As we went into the final match of the season, there were three people in contention for the top spots, Mike King, Mark Walters and Marshall Rohrbach.  We had predicted a close finish if Mike stumbled a bit and Marshall brought his A-game and we were not disappointed.

It was an overcast and dark day with some wind from the northwest, but all in all, not a bad day to shoot – certainly not a dreary rainy day that we had been promised earlier in the week.  Mark Walters took high score for the day with a 384-6X and Marshall did indeed bring his A-game, matching Mark’s 384, but with only a 4X-count.  Mark Creedmoored him.  Mike King slipped just a little bit (well, for Mike) with “only” a 381-7X.  Even so, Mike held on for a season win.

For the 2023- 2024 Winter Offhand season, the top five shooters were:

Mike King                           1536-31X             (Four matches)

Mark Walters                    1522-21X             (Four matches)

Marshall Rohrbach           1506-25X             (Four matches, High Junior)

Gary Mabis                         1419-  9X             (Four matches)

Kris Hartwig                       1069-  6X             (Three matches)

Congratulations to these top five shooters – and one lesson that can be taken from these standings is that if you want to finish at the top, you need to be there to shoot!  You can’t leave points on the table with this crowd.

BUT – then after the match, we had Breakfast with the Juniors.  The clubhouse that usually smells like wet boots and gun oil had a different aroma today; sausages, gravy, biscuits, eggs and fresh coffee. The Juniors put out a great breakfast spread and if anyone went home hungry – well it was their own fault!  About 30 people came to breakfast – thanks to everyone for coming out. 

Thanks to Gary, Mia, Sajea and Wendy for their help in putting the event together.  It went so well we are considering Lunch with the Juniors later on in the summer.
