Wenatchee White-Out Doesn’t Deter Monte…
Our friend Monte Milanuk needed to get in a little practice for the upcoming Berger Southwest Nationals. Monte didn’t let a little white stuff get in the way of his training session at the NCW Gun Club range in East Wenatchee, WA. Monte says: “For all you southerners and snowbirds… this is how the rest of us get ready for the Berger SWN!” Oh man that does look cold…
Monte’s F-TR competition rig features a fully-adjustable McMillan XIT stock resting on a SEB JoyPod up front with an Edgewood bag in the rear. On top is a Nightforce Competition scope. Monte shoots Berger bullets, measuring their velocity with a LabRadar chronograph. The LabRadar sits on a Manfrotto tripod, which can adjust super-low, as you can see. With this set-up, Monte tells us “life is good” — even on a chilly morning in Wenatchee.
We wish Monte (and all competitors) good luck at the Berger SW Nationals. The popular event runs February 6-12, 2017 at the Ben Avery Shooting Facility in Phoenix, AZ. See you on the firing line!

looks just like my front yard this afternoon. We have about 38 inches of snow this winter, and another four weeks to go.
Good Luck!
Let’s see ….74 degrees , severe clear and 15 minutes from Ben Avery . Would ya’ll like to ask me again , why I moved to “Zona” forty years ago ?
I grew up with snow butt-hole deep to a tall giraffe , and bitter freezing cold . I’ll put up with three months of 110-115 compared to the above . Phoenix is just OJT for the next stop , anyway . lol
