Hi
While searching the net,for info on a Mosin Nagant M91/30,I remembered the website surplusrifle.com,but could not find it......until,I found a website that can (in most cases)find the lost website you are looking for,it takes a snapshot of the web,every so often,is my understanding for later in the future,but hey,it found surplusrifle.com,no worries and I found the info I needed.
I used to be a member of Macstudio,that used to generate targets,until one day it just vanished(along with my subscription) and when I had a computer crash,I lost a few of the targets I had got,but thanks to this website,I found it again and the targets I was after....pretty cool eh?

Anyway here it is,it is called the wayback machine at http://www.archive.org/web/web.php

Have a go,you will like it ;)

Interesting, I thought it might let me recover some info I lost on the old Shoooters.com site, but it seems the "robots" "disallow" inquiries. Interesting none the less.

Yeah,not all websites are recoverable,that is the only flaw in it,but still interesting! ;)

The first capture they have for Cast Boolits is March 19 2005 and it had 37 members. And the most users ever was 7 on March 15, 2005.

It has grown you should be proud 45nut.

archive.org has tons of info. Movies, books, old television shows and more in the archives. Wayback machine is just one part of it.

An interesting tidbit; they pilfered the name from a segment on the Rocky and Bullwinkle show. The dog "Mr Peabody" and his friend Herman use the "Wayback Machine" to time travel and study history.
