Lou, for your information, an 8 to 12 insert doesn't have to be made of steel. I have a pair made of brass. Of course, an 8 to 10 insert is too thin to be made of brass.

You’ll have a table under one of the tents or ? I’d be up for a pair of 8 to 10 2 7/8” as well as a pair of 8 to 12 . If you’re here Thursday I’ll have plenty time to talk to you .

I do not have a table but I will be there Fri / Sat. I will be around the Parker / LC tent area
most of the time. If I get enough interest I will start making them. Bill if you can bring me one of the ones you had made I'd appreciate it

Default 8 Gauge Event

We held the 8 gauge event at the Southern as planned, it was a hoot and we had quite a few spectators.

However, one of our own here, Craig Thompson really had a look of determination in his eye and he outshot the group with a score of 28 out of 30 targets.

Congratulations Craig, you made it look easy!!

A big shout out to Stan Hoover for buying the 8ga trophy from his own funds, thanks. Big thanks to all that participated and Rick Hemmingway from Deep River. The 5 stands ran flawless and everyone shot very well. We had 7 shooters total, 5 Parkers and two British 8's. Hopefully we can encourage more 8ga gun owners to participate in the future especially our LC Smith and Lefever brothers. It was really big fun and it made everyone laugh watching target after target black ball.
