Chesebro Rifles may still have a few, do you know how to contact him?

Update: Instead of ones and twos, pleas help contribute to an all inclusive list of shooting ranges that offer Smallbore and Air Rifle shooting programs. This list won’t be governing body specific, I don’t mind if it’s NRA, CMP, or USA Shooting. If you offer a program that is open to the public or p...

Hey y’all!

I help coach AFW2 (Air Force Wounded Warrior Adaptive Sports) and we are interested in finding some ranges to shoot air or smallbore in those states.

Can anyone help out?

Thanks,

Good evening Everyone, Just updating on our events and activities, Our next Smallbore match will be an 800 Prone/F-Class course of fire on the 11th of June. However, you are welcome to join us and shoot a 3 Position 3x20 if you would like. This is an organized training event. Additionally, our webpa...

I should add, We are planning to change some of the events to Mini Palma. Wayne Nunn is the Match Director, I am just a younger guy helping get the word out. Our Mini Palma should become a great skill builder training at 100 yards. If you do not have a rifle, send a message and there is a good chanc...

Hey Team, I just want to take the time to share that the South Texas Marksmanship Training Center (STMTC) hosts regular Smallbore Shooting events. They are working on the webpage but for now, this is the event information and a link to a PractiScore account. Small Bore Matches 2022 Jan. 8 800 Prone ...

What happened to the chamber?

Feel like I should have made a recommendation, I have a Smith out here that has good experience e working on my FWB

I have been extremely satisfied with Chesebro, (Previously MT Guns). http://www.chesebrorifles.com/ I have three rifles and I have shot a couple 599's on A50 Metric (Scoped) and 399's plus several 1600 & 1200's on the conventional target. plus the amazing work on my center fire guns. I am actual...

I do believe the rules have changed, the CMP does now allow 9mm 1911 as well as glocks and some other Springfield and S&W and others 6.2.3 a) U. S. Government or Colt M1911 Service Pistols or commercial versions of the same type (M1911). These pistols may be chambered for any cartridge with a bo...

Yep, Ill have to try some Hornady bullets... Bullseye Powder is what i have right now, got it for a good deal, and Winchester primers at the local gun store.

I did have great luck with the wilson ammo shooting 115g HAP's but it also had some feed issues

Hey guys, Long time rifle shooter looking for advice on bullets. This would be for 9mm 1911; Just curious to know what the preferred style and weights might be for target shooting. I ordered some Berry 9mm 124g HBRN because they were a good price. Are the flat nose popular for target shooting? My en...

I suggest you take a look at this article. Lots of good information here:

I believe that my FWB 2602 "Similar" had a 12 click sight. but what i am about to recomend may be more helpful. I suggest that you get to a 100 yard range if available, shoot your rifle from a rest if you like and just sight in at 100 yards. once you have a solid zero, make a known adjustm...

My advice, and what i have done for the last couple years is this: 1. Swap out the Bloop Tube for one with Anschutz size front bases: 2. Use Genuine Anschutz Sight's and Bases and you wont have a problem for the rest of your days. The front tube on the FWB is wider cant recall how much, so switching...

I just received an email saying the same thing from their company. I'm very tempted but I'm also not a pistol shooter... yet.

Im curious, how would one get this pistol into the states? do we have a distributor?

If you are willing to travel we host regular matches in Los Angeles. We even shoot on electronic targets every 4th Saturday. And typically have one large match NRA Registered/Regional or State Championship.

Let me know what works for you, I run the Websight:

I'll go out on a limb here, but for a standard length barrel (i.e. Anschutz 1907 or 1913 with no extension tube) 3.6mm is my minimum starting point for the ISSF 50m target in Prone, irrespective of the actual sight radius. Standing and kneeling usually need a larger aperture size to compensate for ...

The reason my smith went with the additional holes was for a stronger adaptation, the recoil lug is even recessed into the stock. If you look at it this way I have less that could go wrong, not that it would, but the stress in your setup sound like it goes from the Action to the Action screws, to th...
