Ah Ha finally an off topic I can play in too..I too was a "shooter" in the
proper sense, handgun and rifle, and have also given up competition to
pursue other things (Leica), although truthfully age and eyesight had a lot
to do with it...Strange how fine drink, fine cameras, music, and fine
firearms seem to run together...
