Thanks for letting me join the group. New to the forum and just getting back into ML. Hang my hat in the desert located in the SE corner of AZ. A couple of weeks ago I pulled out the Lyman GPR caplock and went to a club shoot after probably 18 or so years away from the smoke. I am looking forward to shooting a Lyman GPR flinter that I bought years ago when I retired but have never shot. Questions may come as I start that adventure.

Welcome to the group.
For all the questions you might come up with, there will be some excellent answers.
The only dumb question is one you don't ask.
Enjoy.

I'll give you a hello, too! I'm glad to see you will be participating in the postal matches, and I wish you good shooting. Starting next month, we're adding to the 25 yard, a 50+100 combo match that ought to be a real hoot. I nearly always shoot my ML at 25 yards, have only done it at 50 a handful of times, and only once at 100. Now if the weather will cooperate . . .

And a hearty Welcome from SE Ohio. Pull up a toadstool and warm yourself by the fire. Some of the folks here have raw edges but they mean well, don't let them run you off. There is lots of knowledge here, and advice is freely given. Don't be shy about asking questions!
