Frank, I totally agree with your comment about the NRA Board becoming more active than passive. And letting the 20% "tail" wag the 80% "dog" is mind-boggling. Yours is the kind of forward thinking that the NRA needs at the Board level. You have my full support.
Suppressors have been advertised as having recoil reduction capabilities. This is why I do not support this change. The high power sport should let you shoot what you bring but larger calibers with recoil reduction should not be allowed to compete against smaller calibers, in other words, if you can handle it at the shoulder, you can shoot whatever you wish.
I wish I could say I'm surprised by the antiquated attitudes of the members of the Hi Power Committee. However, I am not. Walt Walters belongs to the Asheville Rifle and Pistol Club which still is stuck in the 1950s with bans on suppressors and "humanoid" silhouette targets.

Thank you Frank. Your crusade to fight for the rights of the membership (and not political pressure) is truly honorable.
