The funny thing is that I have shot "2700" matches with Jim Lenardson who won the Camp Perry Pistol national matches a handfull of times. The 2700 course is slow, timed, and rapid fire for each of the 3 guns, 22, center fire, and 45...most folks just use 45 for both center fire and 45 now. Well plenty of times I saw Jim shoot better with the 45 than the 22...the 22 was a model 52 smith with Eley ammo...I have seen them go well under an inch from a machine rest at 50 yards.
Just a funny side note..... Askins was a character to put it nicely .
