I think Richard Mishler shot one in Ohio at the first international they hosted, afterwards he had a heart attack . Check with Jim Harris

Re: smallbore revolver 80x80?
Here's a bit of IHMSA trivia for you;
Bill Urbank actually also shot a small bore revolver 80 at that International at Tusco.
Guess who the champion Small bore revolver champion was?
Bill Urbank. Mishler had a heart attack and was in the hospital and not at the shootoffs.

Cool story, not so much for Mishler. I hope he was able to get home soon after.
Thanks Jim.
Thanks Jim.

No, I didn't shoot a smallbore 80-----ever. But, Melvin, didn't Randy Fussell shoot one at Oak Ridge one year with a S/W 617 ? Edit: I didn't shoot a smallbore revolver 80. I did shoot an 80 at Tusco in UAS and had to do it with an alibi in the last bank to get it. rp

I have served as assistant match director, Southern Silhouette club, 1980s. Also, the Griffin Gun Club for Silhouette during the 1990s, to about 2005. For a short period I authored the ''Cast Bullet'' section of The IHMSA News. Joined IHMSA March 1979.

Yes he did, I think it was 1998. I spotted for his 80, which proves, despite what RW says, I am an Int. class spotter!Richard Pickering wrote:No, I didn't shoot a smallbore 80-----ever. But, Melvin, didn't Randy Fussell shoot one at Oak Ridge one year with a S/W 617 ?

Re: smallbore revolver 80x80?
after some more research, it looks like less than 10 smallbore revolver 80x80's have ever been shot. But Dale Kroetz is officially the first person to shoot one (and he shot 2 in 1 year!)
