Todd & Rick,
Thanks for having the airgun shoots at Salem! Enjoyed the USA/ Italy postal match. Thanks Steve for setting it up. Good luck to everyone shooting it.

Dan testing new style Top Secret Vogel pellets at 50 yards????

Fred getting a workout with his 54!

Dan ? Green tin or Red box?

Calm before the match.

Two Dawsons on the line for match two.

Waiting for Bear and Max to finish scoring the targets.

See you next match.

Sounds like a good time was had by all, but I've gotta ask: was Dan actually shooting Vogel's? I've been thinking of trying them in my LV gun, but haven't even been tempted for HV. Although, if Dan was using them and considering what he posted for scores, maybe I should rethink this whole issue.

Looking forward to the big August match at Salem.
