Or, to put it another way, if you're at the Flatwater and not offending anybody you are doing something wrong. :D

For the record the executive committee holds holes in the barrel of the following sizes to be best: .224", .257", .277", .323", .400", .429", .452", .550" and .669".

It is true however that .257's, 8mm's, 16's and 28's are in a special class of goodness.

I continue to work on Digger for a rifle range to teach the children on and utilize at the Flatwater.

Kirk maybe it's Austrian or Swiss in you background? :lol:

Are the dates set for next year for Flatwater? Because I have to do this. It may not be Sturgis but it sounds like it might be fun! Is there room for dogs? Mine kinda like to make the trip with me...

Yes, the last weekend in April.......always. We can always find room for dogs, especially if you have a few stake outs.

By Sunday Voss is usually staked on the end of the chain gang--if you don't want your dogs picking up any bad habits and/or parvo, bring a short lead.
99.9999999%of robberies don't have the Mission Impossible theme song playing in the background. It's usually circus music.

My kind friends let me be on the end of the chain gang knowing full well my head will not stand the constant tugging and yanking I'd get if I were in the middle of it.

No Chuck no .308" as a special bore. Nor is there any .729" as .30 cals and 12 gauges are boring. Not that they don't work they are just boring.
