The Spring 2016 Berger Bullet Sale is Closed.

The Berger Bullet Sale is closed for 2015.  Watch this spot in the spring of 2016 for the Spring Bullet Sale.

Peter Church found this amongst the late Noel Sugden's material.  Of note is the number of persons shown on the competitor list (309).  Along with the number of persons who were competing in this particular match.  

The results are eighteen pages long.  Notably, this was all hand typed, probably on a manual typewriter.  Maybe they had a adding machine to help with the calculations, but this was almost fifteen years before the first hand calculators, and about a quarter century before the IBM PC.

Look it over and enjoy the nostalgia.

The Fall 2015 Berger Bullet Sales program is open for business.  

This is an opportunity to purchase Berger .22 Caliber bullets in your choice of weights for $20/100.  A significant portion of the purchase price will be used to support Junior programs in Michigan.

To participate go to "SALES", read Jim's comments, and then enter the store.

Although every effort is made to process the order to Berger quickly at the end of October, deliveries may require months.  I personally have generally received my order in March of the subsequent year.  So, if you are buying to use in 2015, order from a distributor.  If you can afford to wait until 2016 order now.  

Good Shooting!

Leo Cebula, President

The National Rifle Association is requesting support from the Michigan Rifle and Pistol Association to help the NRA fulfill its obligation to the international and national shooter community. The NRA has committed to supply target pullers at the 2014 US Fullbore National Championships as well as the 2015 US Fullbore National Championships and the 2015 World Championships.

The dates for these championships are August 4^th to 10^th in 2014 and August 1^st to 14^th in 2015. These championships are very important to the United States and the National Rifle Association. The last time the World Championships were held at Camp Perry was 1976. All of the world’s top shooters from each participating country will be there.

The NRA is expecting a record number of shooters from around the world as well as from all over the United States. Without target pullers the NRA will not be able to host the number of shooters that are expected and will have to turn people away. We don’t want to see that happen. 

The NRA is offering $75 per day plus housing for each target puller. This is a great way to raise funds for your association and club. Just ten volunteers from your club could raise just over $5000 in the week of the US Fullbore Championships this year and much more in 2015.

Please contact Beth Epley at comphelp@nrahq.org or volunteer@nrahq.org  to find out more about helping the NRA and at the same time helping your club to raise funds. Individuals are also welcome. Please post this letter and encourage individuals to sign up for this program.
