Don't you think that today's ammunition has helped scores?

Not just helped. I believe it’s the biggest factor.

Sure wish I could have attended the ticker tape parade they held for you in Vienna, Ga. upon your return from the Grand.

Is the rule at the Grand still that you have to shoot factory only or have they relaxed it last two years since factory ammo is harder to come by ?

That rule was suspended this year. And unless I'm mistake, it only applied to handicap in recent times. Although, I believe in the past they required that you buy all your shells from the shell house.

Seems to me when I used to get the program years ago in advance they had the prices per event with shells included you just had to inform them if you wanted REM , WIN or Federal . I remmember a few unscrupulous fellows that would go there pay the entry fee get their shells then according to them put them in their vehicles get their reloads out and go shoot . Taking the factory home to resell . As it seems to me the prices for factory were about the same as cost from distributer s .

If shooting at the Grand you are required to shoot new shells in all handicap events... Reloads are allowed in the Singles and Doubles.
