S- Swedish

S- Spain

S- South America

S- �Sentral� America

Originally, the thought was to have just a �neutrals� match. I did not think that there would be enough entrants with just the �standard� neutrals of Switzerland and Sweden. There was talk between us about what other countries may be neutral, like Mexico and some South American countries. Again, I felt that just to open up the field, to get more people involved, a match would have to include more. Hence, the 5 �S� match (and, yes, I know HOW to spell Central�). In the end, this match could show that, yes, indeed, the general consensus that Swiss and Swedish rifles kick butt.
