2024 Membership Summary Request

Can anyone provide a summary listing the numbers of members per state and per region?
Maybe also by country.

Re: Bullet weight for HS and FS Rams

Also useful for half scale are the .221 and .223 cartridges. Usually using 55gr bullets that do not damage targets. And others. As usual, a 50 cent answer to a 5 cent question. rp Try NOT to use ballistic tips and match hollow points as they "explode" more than push. FMJ and SP work nicely.

Re: Isn't the 6.5 mm Creedmoor just a copycat of the 6.5 mm IHMSA International?

Main difference is probably longer throat for high BC bullets right in the SAAMI specs.

Re: Simple (hopefully) question

Consider putting a scope on and shooting it in UAS and UASHS. The optic will allow you to place bullets high on the full size ram for better takedown. I would think it would be a hoot in half scale. Soft point bullets are typically too fragile for BB rams. I am trying FMJ 55g to impact harder. Half...
