Hello Mike! And welcome to Handgun Hunter Magazine!
I am buying an XP-100 (compliments of Ernie) and hope to have a gun built by then and be able to attend.

Steve, It will be the best yet....EVERYONE is putting a lot into the Shoot and even though we have more than 6 months to go, there is a LOT of interest. We have been posting and "stacking" flyers wherever we can...and Rich Mertz will be going to the Shot Show in Vegas in January, and leaving a trail of "Shoot Flyers" along the way!
If anyone is not aware, we have a couple of Flyers that anyone can print on their PC and post at their range, friendly gun shop, etc. Flyer #2 is the best choice (see our website nav-bar). I left an earlier one on as well, because it explains a little more. For anyone that would do us that favor...we greatly appreciate! Or simply print one and mail it to a friend who is not "computer friendly".
Gregg, Thank You for the kind words, and your Support! I started contacting vendors on approx. Nov. 1st, and results have been almost overwhelming! Thank You to all of our Supporters, Vendors, and Media Contacts who will make 2010 a great year for LR Handgunning.....make sure everyone checks our Link Pages, and that you support those that support us....
Gregg, when that project gets further along, make sure you share some details....I think all of us live "vicariously" through each others projects....Ernie will steer you in the right direction.
Thanks Everyone!
Mike

Use your FA in the silhouette class. You may place or win, as this is a new class, so I doubt if there will be a lot of competitors.

First, Welcome gibar!!!
I do not know enough about Silhouette competition to know what restrictions exist or don't exist. Giving Rich a call is what I would do (307)283-3030
Here is what the MOA web site says:
Richard Mertz has introduced another event for the Silhouette Shooters out there. For 2010 any Handgun which meets IHMSA rules for Iron Sight Production or Iron Sight Unlimited Pistol may compete in this event. This Match will be shot at 500 yards, for group, on paper. You will be shooting from the Creedmoor position, on a raised platform. The other particulars and safety rules will be the same as the bench matches!
# Any Handgun meeting Iron Sight Production or Iron Sight Unlimited Rules is welcome.
# Designed to be shot as a "shooter/spotter team"
# You have 5 minutes when called to the line to get set-up, and ready to shoot. Safety Flags must be in guns.
# Upon the Line Rep's command, remove safety flags, and you have 5 minutes, shooting at steel sighters, then pause to clear area of all but 5 rounds of ammunition for record group. Then...
# You will have 5 minutes to shoot your 5 shots on Paper, for Record Group, at 500 yards, from the Creedmoor Position.
# The 2 best groups from each relay will go to the Shootoffs.

Gregg- it's gonna be great to see u there.
U know this could be just what the DR. ordered for the SP world. Since the old BR shoots that they used to have there's really been no formal gathering that had the possibility of attracting so many shooters as well as promoting SP shooting--long overdue IMO! Thanks to Mike for his promoting it and Rich's MOA.

Russell,
Sounds great! A New E.A. Brown, I "think" you'll be the first to shoot one at the MOA....sounds like a nice gun. If you have any questions, feel free...I'm sure that one of us has the answer. Looking forward to meeting you!
Mike
