A spectacular day for a rifle match. Lots of good scores but Rick Hamilton started out strong and none ever caught him. Rick will have care of the coveted ‘LIEU’ traveling trophy until relieved of the duty by the high scorer in the next ANTIQUE RIFLE MATCH spring 2005. Until then; work up the loads, practice your positions, encourage your friends, and dust off a different antique for reappreciation

**** the presence of a asterick (*) in the rifle description box indicates the use of a rifle in the spirit of but outside the exact parameters of this match.

             The pleasure of having those shooters on the line was in no way diminished by their choice of long gun on this particular day.  *********
