[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 722473, member: 6064"] "They" don't "allow" anything less than a 55gr DURRING a sanctioned match, by their own choice. NO WHERE in the club rules will you find that little tidbit, NOR is it posted ANYWHERE on the High Power range. I was also told this little thing by one of the Hi-power gurus and that it was true for ALL Hi-Power ranges in the U.S....A quick call to the C.M.P. and several Clubs that run Hi-Power, such as the N.R.A. Whittington Center, and NO ONE had ever heard of it, and besides when the Army and Marine reserve units us the range and the pits, they all use 55gr and 62gr ammo, and no-one from Hi-Power says a word, so what we have is an informal "rule" with absolutely NO backing. I was not doubting your father. I was pointing out how these rummors get to be "The Rule", sorry it came across that way. Here is another real "rule" on one of the 1000 yard ranges I shoot at. NO Flat based bullets allowed because they key hole at 1000 yds. This is absolute B.S. but someone knew a guy, who saw a girl whose son knew a Rabbi, who told a rimfire shooter that he saw it all from the 1000yd line while he was sigting in his .36 calibe squirle rifle....see what I mean? Kind of like Glocks can pass right through a metal detector...everyone "KNOWS" thats true! KurtM [/QUOTE]
