CAMP PERRY, OHIO – -(AmmoLand.com)- MORE .30-06 HXP AMMO SOON: Our most recent purchase of HXP ammunition began arriving on Feb 17, 2010. It will take another 4-5 weeks before the full shipment is received.

The M1 Garand Rifle

We do know that the quantity is large enough to satisfy our customer needs for several years.

We will not accept any pre-orders or establish a waiting list. Thanks for your support and patience. We expect to again begin accepting orders by the end of March, 2010.

New In 2010 – Sanctioned CMP Match or Clinic Shooting Program Changes
Written By Christina Roguski, CMP Competition and Program Support Staff

Civilian Marksmanship Program

CAMP PERRY, OHIO – -(AmmoLand.com)- This year the CMP has implemented several changes to the Sanctioned Match/Clinic program. The first change is the addition of a $5.00 shipping and handling fee.

If you are requesting scorecards, certificates and/or catalogs, you will be required to pay the $5.00 shipping and handling fee. If you are not requesting match materials, the shipping and handling fee will be waived.

The ammunition allocation process has also changed. The application form will no longer list the ammunition price or configuration. If you request ammunition for your event, an ammunition allocation form listing the price and quantity you are approved for will be sent to the event contact person six to eight weeks prior to the date of the match. If you apply for multiple events throughout the year, an ammunition allocation form will be sent six to eight week prior to the date of each event. The ammunition allocation form will be sent via email (hard copies will be sent to those not providing an email address). Once you receive the ammunition allocation form, please complete it and submit it to Mike Conrad, mconrad@odcmp.com, at the CMP North Store. If the ammunition allocation form is not received 30 days after the date of match, then the form is invalid.

Gold, silver and bronze CMP Achievement Pins may be purchased by sanctioned match sponsors to award to competitors in Garand, Springfield, Vintage Military, M1 Carbine and Rimfire Sporter Matches.

The Sanctioned Match/Clinic application form should be submitted six to eight weeks prior to the date of the event. This will allow ample time for the ammunition allocation form to be sent and processed. It is also helpful if the Sanctioned Match/Clinic application is submitted prior to the National Matches (July – August) if the event takes place in July or August as that is our busiest time of the year. Also, if you plan to purchase your allocated ammunition during the National Matches at Camp Perry, it is required you make prior arrangements with Mike Conrad at the CMP North Store.

We hope these changes will help the Sanctioned Match/Clinic Program and the ammunition allocation process. If you have any questions or would like a copy of the new application form, please visit http://www.odcmp.com/Competitions/Sanction.htm or contact me at croguski@odcmp.com or 419-635-2141 ext. 1114. I look forward to working with you in 2010.
