Re: Guns of the game: Field Pistol

Accidentally found a pretty good PAS revolver. A Jan 2012 vintage 686 with an old scope that had been pulled from the deer hunting 657. On its first outing I managed a 28 with factory ammo and a 50 yd zero. Did have to fine tune the zero a bit for windage during the match, but it more than made up f...

It was indeed in the mailbox, but not soggy, oddly enough! IHMSA newspaper, ID card, target templates to scan and scale, and a 2012 rulebook. Hope to start filling the little boxes on the ID card straight away...

Re: 44 Special loads for FP

Used to shoot lead bullets, both cast and swaged, at moderate velocities out of a 6" S&W 29. Fought a leading problem for quite a while, but finally discovered that the root of the problem was that the brass was only expanded to an ID of 0.426" at best during the reloading process. So ...

Re: Guns of the game: Field Pistol

Re: Join Online!!

Just did the PayPal thing. Do I also need to mail in an entry form? Or can it be done via computer somehow? Looking forward to shooting .22 and FP again. It's been about ten years since my last match. What "entry form" are you referring to? Thanks! The old-style "mail it in" mem...

Re: Introduce yourself

Greetings! I am anticipating shooting this sport again soon. It's been about ten years since my last match. Griffin Gun Club in Ga. was the old venue, but will be trying Cherokee near Gainsville. Hopefully this Saturday.

Re: Join Online!!

Will try again, as the first time did not seem to take.
