Yep, I'm in. My first bolt match...should be interesting. What kind of 8mm do you have?

I'll be there.

Not sure excatly. I think it's some Yugo surplus ammo from back in the 50's. SGF will have to clarify it. It shoots good, but it is corrosive. It's easy enough to clean up after shooting and it is good boxer primed brass. I've actually got some tumbled and ready to be deprimed, just waiting on getting some 8mm bullets.

Gotcha added. We'll see ya there.

I'm gonna try and make this one!

You're on the list.

The Yugo 8mm that Magnolia has is accurate and corrosive, and I am fairly sure it is berdan primed.

P.M sent...

Question mark is gone. Think I'll join you in shooting two relays. Want to try the .303 again.

Would it be ok to shoot my sporterized Enfield? It still has original sights. If it is, I might shoot, won't know for sure till Friday.

Bushy -Tail season opener ... got to take the wife ...

put me down in relay 1 if there is a spot available, thanks

I hoped you would join us. Got you on the 1st relay.

As long as it has the original sights, I'd say bring it and shoot.

I hope you come, I've got a Mauser I want you to evaluate.

Bring it over! Any day I get to fondle a Mauser is a good day.

Johnny,

Put me down for at least the first relay. I may shoot in both since the weather's more tolerable now.

I've got a new Finn Mosin to try out. It's not as nice as my other one that I shot at the last vintage match, but maybe it's a shooter too. I'm gonna test sight it before Sat. Got it at the H'burg gun show a bit back and haven't shot it yet.

Gotcha on there, Brutus. Glad you're coming.
