The Champs and Pioneers of Bullseye video

This is a very informative and entertaining  video of the history of Bullseye

What a nice tribute! It would be an honor to be numbered among these gentlemen.

I shot in about 20 NM's. How many sports can an oridnary shooter such as myself make that statement about?

John Dreyer hits it out of the park yet again!

Question for you John, or anybody- Which match did Charles Askins win in 1937 with his modified Colt Woodsman centerfire .22?
This reference says he didn't win any:

I can only think of trapshooting, The Grand American, 12 times myself.

This is of such excellence, it's a memorial of sorts to the memory of John.
