    Boolits Have to be hand cast. You can buy them if need be.
    No commercial boolits

    I am going to try to shoot early, so I don't have to look at every one elses targets, and see what I have to beat. Working with my 30/06 right now.

    One question...You say conical for scoped in-line...does a REAL boolit qualify as a conical?

    Your postal match is simple and inviting.A very good idea of yours.
    No fuss no money ,no red tape.No targets sailing to and fro across the Pond.
    I have taken out of my arsenal a 308 mod 70 hb,scoped,to morrow I am going to clean it,and load some ammo,as soon as the weather gets better I'll shoot some groups.
    For offhand rifle shooting I'll have to train a little more,and for offhand revolvers too.

    You do not need to shoot all classes. Just the ones that you want to.

    Do not try to put brakes on me,my cowboy alias is Bufalo George Dega not because i hunt buffalo,but because I am a big buffalo myself.
    or at least ,a little overweight, or florid obesity as my principal at the hospital used to say.
    I hope that your clever idea grows up and produces a dozen of rifle cathegories.
    I admire a fellow with a Sicilian name living in the Alaskan outback.
    I too prefer to live in a small village than in an overcrowded city.

    Bullshop just clued me in to this.
    I see a need for a revolver class too, instead of just pistol. I don't have any molds for my pistols.

    I am assuming "pistol" is being used generically to mean handgun.
