Team Manners was spread out across the country this April. We had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone.
Several Team shooters finished strong across multiple disciplines.
First off we want to congratulate Jeremy Cornelius on his 2nd place finish in Open Light at the Little Hunt on the Prairie match. This is a NRL Hunter match, all stages are blind and you have to locate, range, build position, and engage targets while having weight limits on the rifle you’re using. Jeremy used our LRH allowing him to build a rifle that comes out to 11.5 loaded down! The LRH excels in giving you target rifle capabilities at extremely light and trimmed weights and size.
The LRH comes standard with an Arca rail. This makes for rock solid tripod shooting when you need to elevate your position. Throughout the 16 stages of the match he shot all but 2 off of the tripod. This again proving you can have great stability and accuracy with a light weight package. We donated one to the match for the prize rifle and one to the other NRL Hunter match in Wyoming.
The LRH has been very popular for these type matches and hunters, we’ve listened and now glad to announce a steady supply of them on the website!

A windy time for ELR at the Spearpoint Ranch match but it yielded 2 wins on both divisions. Solid job to Derek Love and Otis White for securing both light and heavy divisions. Otis White shot a .338 Enabler in Light division to clean the 5 targets at 2,203 yards while Derek used a .416 in Heavy and was able to put a bullet on target at 3,370 yards. Ryan Cheney finished in 3rd! Very impressive men!
Over in the PRS world we attended the Alabama Precision match supported by A-Team Precision. We were happy to donate a TCS to the prize rifle that was given away through random draw at the match. Having an equal chance to win a custom rifle was exciting for the crowd and we hope the winner enjoys it. We also donated a stock and a half off cert to the prize table.
We had 2 team shooters finish in the top 20 of the match and one also taking top Tactical with a .308 in our TCS. Cody Kennedy finished 12th and Robert Brantley finished 17th and Top Tactical out of the 125 shooters.
The following weekend we found ourselves in Texas at the Leupold Best in Texas match. With some beautiful scenery and pleasant winds competitors fought it out over 18 stages. We had 4 team shooters shooting; 2 in open and 2 in tac. We had a podium finish with Robert taking 18th overall along with top Tactical. Clayton Doucet finished 2nd in Tactical
In the regional series team shooters Kendal Simpson also Greg Connoyer finished 3rd in their matches. Kendal shot the Cool Acres and Greg shot the G.A. Precision Match.
The G.A. Precision match was a great time and Mr. Tom Manners himself was able to show up and R.O. the event. He donated a LRH to the winner of a pre-picked stage which was cool to see. Not many times do you see a prize like this for a one day match. We donated a LRH to the Alabama qualifier too. For that match we chose the “crease shooter” dead middle of the pack. We’re hoping this will be a fun a good way to give back to the sport that has been good to us!
We’re super excited to be able to attend and support the different series. Let us know what matches you will be attending!
We hope to see you on the range!
