LOS OSOS, Calif. \u2013 Rich Wolfe of Escalon, Calif. repeated as the Open division champ at the International Confederation of Revolver Enthusiasts’ (ICORE) 14th Annual Southwest Regional Revolver Championship.<\/p>\n

The 32-year-old Sierra Arms shooting team member won seven of the eight stages in the match and outpaced his nearest competitor by just over 26 seconds with a final time of 125.15. Wolfe claimed High Overall honors by topping the entire field of 110 shooters.<\/p>\n

\u201cRich is an outstanding Open division shooter and is always in contention to win any ICORE match he enters. His dominant performance this weekend at the Southwest Regional proves he’s on his game and will be gunning for top honors this June at the 20th Annual Smith & Wesson International Revolver Championship,\u201d said Ron Joslin of ICORE.<\/p>\n
