Vortex optics to sponsor 1000yd BR postal match

Post by dg »

As the heading suggests, Vortex Optics Australia have generously offered to become the major sponsor of the 1000yd BR postal match.

Sponsorship details at this stage include a 6 target agg in both LG & HG on both score and group and possibly an overall in both classes.

IMO i reckon the above has a nice ring to it!! :D :D

Thank you to Antony and Vortex for this show of support and to Mr Purcell for another one of his good ideas.

Hi All ,Thanks Dave this time you have excelled yourself,you have climbed that ladder we talked about the other day,for sure .. This puts 1K benchrest up on a higher level than anybody else has had a chance to do since 1999 in Australia..Townsville is now closer than it has been for the last 12 months to actually getting to shoot again ..Still no real date yet ,i won't say July but am hopefull of August..With the way things have turned out i don't think we will be able to help out with 6matchs in '09 but mabye we can in 2010.. It seems recently that a couple of the Southern Schmucks that have been trying real hard to see us never shoot again , are being found out for just what they really are by more and more people ,we can only hope ..Congrats once again,your humble underling JR..Jeff Rogers..ps .. A big thanks to VORTEX OPTICS AUSTRALIA also

Thanks Dave and Vortex.
Good to see 1KBR in Aus getting some exposure. Hopefully we can give this a good run.

Gooday DG, i concur with JR, you stand alone at the top of the heap.Nothing we ever do could displace you from that number one position. :mrgreen:

Well done to the two Daves and all the Canberra crew and all at Vortex.
I wil believe a match has been shot at Townsville after i see the results posted and the guns being cleaned.
