As far as Shooting Steel, there was never a follow-up book, though I severely wished they had published one. A lot of stuff has happened since that one ended in 1985. I have ALL the old IHMSA papers including match reports and gun tests, load data, product reviews. A dream of mine has been to consolidate all that into a Volume II of Shooting Steel some day. I would need a good scanner to start, then find a publisher, which I imagine would cost a small fortune. I think it really needs updating and is a shame the IHMSA staff never got around to it.


IHMSA - I think a phone call to the publisher of Volume 1 would tell you a lot.  You have the material, depth of background and knowledge - that's how books like what you are describing come into being.  I think you should see what the publisher will put on the table & go for it.

Funny, I even have a pair of earmuffs like that…although…do those say DW on the black round things on the side?


Yes they do.

lbruce...my scores were not always impressive. You should see my scores in the papers as I was starting out.Embarassed

That's a good idea Dusty. I will see who the publisher is. when I dig out my book. I know the IHMSA staff organized the material, but that is all I remember.

The publisher is DBI.  They used to be located in Northbrook, IL.  This seems to be the link to their current location.

Hope this helps.

Got to love a Supermag and those grips just too cool!  Cool Pics  Nice find.  Now we need a range report to see what the business end of the gun thinks.

RoverboyBuy Now If it's worth $700.00 to you It doesn't matter what the rest of us think. You are the only one you have to satisfy. Many times over the years I have paid more for something than “others” thought it was worth. My biggest regrets were always the ones I didn't buy when I had the chance. Unless of course you plan to flip it and turn a profit.
