Rocky Mountain Regional BPTR match - Don McDowell - 09-18-2017
First off a great big tip of the hat and well done to Eron Ahmer for the great job on this match. Elon is a world class shooter that knows how to make a great match happen, plus he has the availability of one of the finest shooting ranges , but to put this match on.
I don't have the scores, but I believe in the end Chip Mate and Zack Taylor were separated by 1 x count in a large amount of points for first and second.
There were also 3 first time BPTR competitors and I believe they all had a great time. This is as good of a match as there is to get your feet wet in the target rifle matches, so watch for the announcement of next years match and mark your calendars accordingly.

What Don said.
I was one of the first time competitors and this one had a great time. I thoroughly enjoyed both the long range and the mid range matches. I had never fired more than 500 meters before and this was an experience to shoot 1000 yards with a vernier sight. I had a great spotter and I can see how that makes all the difference. I learned a lot and I have a lot to work on to get ready for next year. Eron did a superb job running the match. Thanks to all for welcoming the new guys and giving us some great tips.
