Re: Anyone 10m air pistol competitors using older guns?
Does anyone know if a current very top shooter has ever been asked to shoot an old FWB 65 to see what they could do with it?

Re: New NRA Director of Competions Named
Is this effective immediately? If so, was Dennis Willing fired; did he quit or retire? If not, then when is it effective?

Re: Center shot on electronic target vs NRA inner 10 on pape
Talking air rifle. So, is a 10.2 on air rifle the same as a "inner 10", that is taking out the dot, under NRA rules?

Center shot on electronic target vs NRA inner 10 on paper
The NRA rulebook defines an "inner ten" on an air rifle target as one where the 10 dot has been "shot out completely". Electronic targets score an air rifle center shot or X when the value is either 10.27 or 10.28, I believe. Does anyone know if these are equivalent, or not? If n...

Anschutz 1903 action screws
I just purchased a used, but relatively new production, Anschutz 1903. I found the barreled action to be loose in the stock and went to tighten it and found that the action screws were not the Allen head screws that I have found on all recently made Anschutz rifles. They appeared to be Torx but none...

Re: High Power Championships
New site is Camp Atterbury, Indiana, south of Indianapolis and north of Columbus, IN. It is a 4 hr drive from where the smallbore matches are currently held (farther away than Camp Perry is from Bristol).

Re: Kneeling roll filling material
Would 6mm plastic air soft BBs work? I would like to use something light, non-compressible but that is not to small in pellet size such that it is hard to keep it in the kneeling bag.

Re: Blocking branding on equipment in the Olympics?
Paid? Don't I wish. As volunteers we got housing in college dorm rooms and we may have gotten are meals covered, I don't recall. Travel to and from Atlanta for the Olympics was on our own dime. We got to keep the uniform shirts, coat, hat and tie that we were required to wear. Sponsors in some cases...

Re: Blocking branding on equipment in the Olympics?
In 1996 in Atlanta the equipment control group, of which I was honored to be a part, started calling ourselves the "logo police". We spent a significant portion of our time checking the size, spacing and number of logos. We even made up our own templates to check the sizes. Even the little...

Re: Spotting scope placement
Only ever saw one good prone shooter do this, Richard Hanson from Florida. He used a scope with a 90 degree angled eyepiece. Had to completely take his face off the stock after each shot. With a 45 degree eyepiece with good eye relief and proper placement of the scope on the left side you can almost...

Avery Brundage, the IOC President from 1952-1972, is probably fighting to get out of his grave and beat some sense into the current IOC leadership. From his Wikipedia page: "As president, Brundage fought strongly for amateurism and against commercialization of the Olympic Games, even as these s...
