He helped out a lot.when your in the middle of a job he would allways come around to give you a hand and pick up stuff.

CMP has 200 round cans of the Greek HXP, loose pack in the can for $98. I ordered 3 a couple of weeks ago. I got some about 3 years ago, and it's amazingly good stuff. Very accurate.

Other than that, haven't seen any.

I haven't yet.And I dont know if I qualify to get any from them?
The Greek stuff shoots great!I had a batch of Austrian which had OJP headstamps and I thought they were HXP.
The OJP was nothing but problems-case failures,split necksand primer blowouts.I wound up trashin the whole can and never got any HXP after that because I read it wrong.

You just need to join a member organization like the garand collectors association first. Since you are a vet, you'll just need to fill out a form to join CMP. Then you will fax that in and they will give you store access. You can get er done pretty quick.

I was looking at the "donate" page expenses a couple days ago...looks like someone (I'm guessing J) paid for COAR's association fee with CMP...might be worth asking when that'll take effect.

Worth checking into.I honestly don't know where else to find any M2.And the regular stuff is pretty pricy
