While here in OH and east of the Mississippi we make think of hunting handguns suitable for deer or feral hogs but out west for prairie dogs the unlimited guns with huge scopes are probably popular. When PH was talked about and then tried I'm sure each one of us had an idea of what our own hunting g...

Good results. I see Rich even chokes in Unlimited BB at a postal match. I knew we had Larry the Ram here in OH that always ruined a good score. Must be one of his cousins in IN that got Rich.

Jackie, My reasoning for dropping the 6X limit is many/some people who actually hunt with handguns may have scopes larger than 6X and use the higher magnification while hunting. In some respects I wish IHMSA had adopted an "Open" category for long course, short course and 22. If we truly m...

Jackie, You almost have it. Change 2 to read "Optics are allowed".

This type of nit-picking is what is confusing especially in PH. People who use handguns to hunt with are not looking for limitati...

Sad to hear that another IHMSA pioneer is no longer with us.

Just go back to Jim's original suggestion. Do we want to make rules more simple or more complicated????? Pretty so...

I think the early days of IHMSA were strictly about being competitive. We had trophies and even payback when winning classes. Lots of shooters shot just to win. Now IHMSA has become a shoot for fun type of match. Do shooters need to win every time they shoot and is it important to beat everyone else...

Please send more info about the 2.5-8X scope to shultza@watchtv.net
Blue or Silver?
Target turrents?
If no target turrents are they click adjustable or older style with NO clicks?
Picture would be great if possible
I'm interested
Thanks
