    I wish I would have known Gene was bringing his guitar along. We've been playing together for over thirty years. This shoot only lasts for around 6 hours, yet we had people drive 200 miles to be here. Started out cold, my truck was still covered with snow when I got there. Just a dusting at that elevation. Warmed up a bit, but got cloudy and started spitting snow again as we were leaving.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    You wouldn't be alone! Although some of the targets are so small, a trade gun is really put to task. Olives at 25 yards, anyone? Plus shooting through the loops on a pretzel without breaking them!

    Heck I know I cant hit them, the reason I use shot in my trade gun. I do have fun poking round balls down range though

    Thanks for posting this, brings back good memories. I quit going to ML shoots in 1974 when I changed jobs and had to work weekends, never got back into it. Still have some guns just don't have the incentive or eyesight shoot in competition anymore.
