I have a unopened case of it sitting under my bed waiting for a trial run. I was planning on saving it for the Garands, but it just might become M1917 fodder also. Curt

I came in second place (first looser) in the Charlotte steel plate rifle match a few months back knocking over (4) 8"x13" steel plates at 200 yards in 22 seconds. I had to fired 6 rounds to do it and I know I pulled one. I would say my 1917 Remington likes it very well. Smokepole

Most everyone shooting this match is 40 ish with aging eyes that need all the help they can get. I am not sure I could do it again as my eyes have taken a real turn for the worst over the last 12 months. I'll be 49 this year and have a bad feeling my iron sight days are almost over. That really sucks........ Smokepole
