NRA Competitive Shooting needs you. The 2015 Long Range World Championships will be held at Camp Perry, Ohio. In 2014, NRA Competitive Shooting plans a dress rehearsal Aug. 4-10. Organizers need target pullers both years, but right now they’d really just like to nail down commitments from folks for this summer.

Each target puller will receive free housing in the new barracks building or one of the new “hutments.” Either barracks has air conditioning (a plus at Camp Perry in the summer). Sounds like a great opportunity for some folks to learn about and help a core NRA program and take in some nearby sights like the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
