This link, http://www.vcdl.org/cmp.htm has details on the August match. It is probably about 1.5 hour drive to the match from Front Royal. Email cmp@vcdl.org to make a reservation.
If you (or anyone else) have specific questions that aren't answered at our website or the odcmp.com website feel free to email me at nvcdl@erols.com

Buying from the ODCMP (DCM) isn't as hard as some make it sound to be. It's just a lenghty process while your background is being cleared by the Feds.
You can be military or police or certified by the NRA as a rifle instructor. Otherwise you need to shoot in a DCM match, which is no big deal since any high power rifle qualifies. You don't have to hit anything - just shoot.
The guns vary in quality and the last two I bought had sorry looking stocks. One shot poorly (1 & 1/2 foot @ 100 yards) and examination showed a nick in the muzzle. The other held 6" at 100 yards and probably can be tightened up with glass bedding & trigger work. My previous Garands from ODCMP were all beauties.
Even though you've bought a Dane from your dealer, don't overlook the DCM. At $500, they're hard to beat. BTW, good for you for staying away from those Century Arms recreations. The receivers are poorly casted and would fail inspection by the old & original Springfield Armory. They should have had Ruger cast them and gauge them if they wanted to go that route.

Apperances
The bore is in good order, as well as in mechanical condition. Field Stripped it with the help of a website, wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. I haven't shot it yet, will do this payday and will know how it does. From what I've seen, should do very well
