Fellow Shooters
Start checking your mailbox over the next few weeks because the Sinclair #2009-B Catalog is being mailed this week. If you are on our mailing list you should be getting a catalog in a week or two. We have a lot of new products including some great Sinclair reloading tool kits. A lot of our customers have been asking for tool boxes for many of our tools and we listened. If you can’t wait for the new catalog please visit our website where almost all of the new products are already on display!
It is a busy time of the year as we head into hunting season. Of course, competitive shooting is still going strong through the fall. The Sinclair F-T/R Team plus a couple of our guys shooting as individuals will be at the U.S. F-Class Nationals in Camp Butner, North Carolina. It is being hosted by the North State Shooting Club (September 30 thru October 3). For those of you not familiar with F-Class, it is normally shot at 600 and 1000 yards off the ground utilizing rests and bi-pods. The Open Class is open to any cartridge (.35 caliber and under) and can be shot off a rest or bi-pod with a rifle weight of approximately 22 lbs. The F-T/R Class is limited to the .223 Remington or the .308 Winchester and has to be shot off a bi-pod with a total rifle weight of approximately 18.2 lbs (including bi-pod). For more information, here are two great websites where you can find out more about F-Class shooting.

I am being cautiously optimistic about primer availability because one of our suppliers indicated we may get a very large shipment of primers in the next week or two. Cross your fingers and hope it is substantiated. If you need some primers or know someone who does have them start checking our blog. We’ll post a notice regarding the primers as soon as they hit the warehouse dock!
Good Shooting,
