Received this e-mail from another BP cartridge shooter. Maybe of interest to some:

"Subject: Long Range BPTR at Rattlesnake Moutain Shooting Facility?

"Gentlemen-

"The Tri-Cities Shooting Association is developing our 2013 Long Range schedule, and we'd like to include a series of four long range BPTR matches.  Matches would be two day NRA Approved events, preceded by a optional long range practice on Friday afternoon.  We are tentatively considering a Creedmoor match on Saturday, followed by two 1KYD matches on Sunday.  Matches would be in mid-March, mid-April, mid-July, and early September.

"We don't currently have a organized BPTR group here in Richland, but we are operating under the philosophy of 'schedule it, and (maybe) they will come'.  Anyway, I was curious if any of your members might be interested in traveling to Rattlesnake to shoot in a BPTR match, and if so, what format and dates would be most appealing to them?  Also, would there be any interest in attending a Washington State or NRA Northwest Regional BPTR Championship at Rattlesnake?   

"We are also open to running Mid Range matches on Friday mornings, and Schuetzen matches on Saturday afternoons, if that appeals to anyone.

"We're new to BPTR, so any advice or lessons learned you'd care to share would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for your time, and feel free to forward this email to anyone you think may be interested.
