The Association is affiliated with the International Benchrest Shooters Association (IBS).

TWO IBS 1000 YARD
RECORDS FALL AT THE IOWA CLUB IN 2009
There are two tentative IBS 1000 yard Aggregate Records that were set this year and one may be a new world record.
Al Forbes set a new Club and IBS 6 match Light Gun Group aggregate record of 4.281inches with a related score aggregate of 47.17. Al set this record shooting his 6 Dasher and it included 3 screamer groups. The past Club record was 5.299 and the past IBS record was 4.6832.
Lee Fischer set a new Club, IBS and World record 6 match Heavy Gun Score aggregate of 98.833 with a related group aggregate of 6.673 and 19X. Lee set this record shooting his big 300 Ackley. The former Club record was 96.17 set by Lee last year, the former IBS record was 96.833 and the former World Record was 98.33.
We will have to see if these records hold for the balance of the shooting season.
