Hi guys...just a note to say that effective 1 January 2018, Ken Jorgensen, who recently retired from Ruger, and I will launch the Rimfire Challenge Shooting Association and be taking over administration of the RIMFIRE CHALLENGE from NSSF.
We're pretty excited about this...Ken and I, along with the late Nelson Dymond, created the RIMFIRE CHALLENGE some 10 years ago, sitting in a hotel after the Steel Challenge in CA. It is a wonderful sport, and we have been thrilled at its growth over the years.
We'll be having some big announcements at SHOT, and I would like to invite everyone here on Rimfire Central, where I've been a lurker/member for years, to come out to a match. I promise, you will have Big Fun!
My current RC setup is a Tac-Sol X-Ring rifle with a left-side bolt handle (zebra paint job by the GREAT Kurt Grimes, who also hosts the Rimfire Raceguns group on Facebook) and a Vortex Venom red dot and a Ruger Mk-IV with a C-More in a John Allchin mount.
I just finished building up, with invaluable help from Scott Volquartsen, a Ruger 22/45 Lite on an aluminum Volguartsen frame. Right now I've got an old Burris Fast Fire on it, but I've recently become enamored with Ultradots, so popular with bullseye shooters. Little gun shoots irrationally good.
[In the interest of full disclosure, Ruger is a long-time sponsor of my various OUTDOOR CHANNEL television series. Tac-Sol, Volquartsen, Vortex Burris and C-More Abe NOT currently sponsors, although God knows I would take their money!]
