Thanks much on the Cubs. Been waiting a very long time!

I'm not a cartridge collector but I'll give it a sporting go. Recalling rifles and what they were chambered for. This is where you leave me in the dust...OK?

1. 577-450 foiled
2. Early 303
3. .276 (Pattern 13 rifle)
4. 303 ball
5. The original 4mm SA80 round?
6. 280 for the SLEM?
7.


I don't know. You can see I'm guessing.

HA! I was on paper with the first five then flinched the easy ones off into the sunset!

I had to look to see when the Braves played the Twins. That was 1991, so the best in 25 years not counting a few really good ones in between.
I'm still halfway in between dreamland and a state of disbelief. Didn't think I'd live long enough to see it.
