Wow, summer is flying by fast! This week we opened up our commercial store for the NRA National Rifle & Pistol Championships at Camp Perry, Ohio. If you are looking for a relaxing one-day or overnight trip, the National Matches are a great place to visit – even for those not competing. Take a Saturday and visit the National Matches (check the NRA website for a complete shooting schedule). We’ll have our store open 7 days a week from now until August 15th (10am to 6pm). We’d love to have you stop by.

One of our reloading techs, Rod Green, will be at the Varmint Hunter Jamboree in Pierre, South Dakota at the end of the month (July 28-31). Rod will be on hand to answer questions, demonstrate some new products, and of course do a little shooting. He’ll be sharing a booth with Marc D’Aguanno of Brownell’s. If you are in the area, look them up and say hello.

Thanks to all of you that have been using our blog. Some real good comments have been posted. Any of you can post content to the blog; we review it, of course, for appropriateness. The blog is a good place to post info on matches, hunting trips, or information on a new product you want the other readers to know about. If you need a direct answer from Sinclair regarding availability (like primers) or you have a technical question about one of our products, it is quicker to use our contact e-mail address at support@sinclairintl.com. The blog is a little harder for our customer service people to access for direct questions. We appreciate your help.

We are starting to see some hopeful signs that the component manufacturers are beginning to catch up a bit (still no real definitive word on primers). A few bullets have been coming in, some brass has came in that we haven’t seen in awhile, and we’ve been getting a little powder too.

Let’s all hope that the craziness around components soon diminishes so we can enjoy more time shooting instead of hunting for product. See you at the range.

Good Shooting,

Bill Gravatt
President – Sinclair International, Inc.
