Oct 1-5 2008, NSSA 118th National Match, Fort Shenandoah, VA. The NSSA website: http://www.n-ssa.org/

I usually go to check out the Sutler Village where occasionally interesting things (not necessarily Civil War) pop up for sale. I also like to watch the mortar match held early Friday afternoon. I will make another better video of the mortar match if things work out.

The Misery Cannon Shoot scheduled for February 21 has been canceled. There is snow on the ground with more scheduled to fall before next weekend. There are travel adviseries on Highway 299. People are worried that they might get down here and not get home. I look forward to seeing everybody at the June shoot.

DAN -

WELCOME to the board. Wyoming is right-much far for a weekend outing for me here in Virginia, but we'd love to see some pictures of the fire and smoke when it's done!

If y'all do it right, we should be able to smell the sulpher about two days later.

It's getting to be that time of year again. The Desert Marksmen Rondezvous will be March 17-21 out near Lancaster, Ca. Last year there was an extra stake in their stake shoot event so reduced it to splinters with my half scale Napoleon. If we can get enough cannon together this year there could be a "cannon only" stake shoot... what a hoot that would be. If you would like more info on this event either PM or e-mail me.

GGaskill · « **Reply #54 on:** February 16, 2010, 09:24:50 AM »

But this year your Napoleon is smaller bore.
