    I can add it to the list of you like as well as a extension on the date. I was really hoping for more then this. Some of the matches we have had in the past where pretty big.

    Just letting you know that some of us shoot highpower matches with cast bullets so the offhand is a requirement as part of the course of fire .

    Just found this today & don't have a chance to get out in time. I was wondering if there will be a similar match coming up afterwards?

    Thank you!

    I thought more would send a target in. You two were half the entries. Only cost a stamp after all. If you hold another one, maybe I can come up with something for a category prize.

    Yea. I was kinda disappointed. I was hoping to start doing monthly shoots and fine time my method but this one was kind of a flop.

    Dang, I didn't see this. I have a BH 357Mag and a jug of Unique that wants into a cast match. I don't know if I would be good enough to "run with the big dogs" but I'd give it a shot
