... and some more, (funny how relevant content hides and gets stumbled upon)!

It's time for 'oney' to carry the ball.

BR,

How did I miss that shooting classic?

My reprint copy arrived in today's mail. A wonderful addition to my shooting classics library. Great reading!

I will dig through my old Pope collection. I think I do have the article about the Palma barrels with Popes hand written comments in the margin. If I can locate it I will share it.

Jeff, a lot of good stuff gets forgotten and has to be rediscovered.
Everyday life takes precedence and gets in the way. :oops:
