Once again Mother Nature reared her ugly head and made a mess of the range on match day. While not underwater, the overcast, rainy, and generally ugly weather put a real damper on the turnout for this months ABRA rimfire rifle match. Three shooters showed up for the match, but with only one shooting a […]
It was a gloomy, rainy, ugly day at the Black Swamp Rifle & Pistol Club, but the Northwest Ohio Bench Rest Shooters didn’t let that keep them from coming out for this months match. Six shooters participated in the 100-yard group match which consisted of five relays of shooting a 5-shot group for record. Weather […]

It is with the deepest regret that I announce the passing of our club Secretary and Treasurer, Richard “Stimpy” Kohli. Dick served four years as the club Secretary & Treasurer and a wealth of knowledge was lost with his passing. Our condolences and sympathies go out to his wife Penny and their children with the […]
The NWOBRS and ABRA matches scheduled for Sunday June 14 were cancelled due to severe flooding at the range. Heavy storms in the area over the past several days have saturated the ground leaving nowhere for additional water to go. Jennings Creek has also escaped it’s banks and is running over Pohlman Road just east […]
