July Smith, I sent you a PM.

I currently shoot the rifle with two fingers in the lever. Some use one, some use two, some use three fingers. My fingers like comfort at my age. 😇 I see all kinds of one piece of skinny leather ( must be for thick strong fingers?), a couple stripes of leather ( now looking like burnt bacon), and even more leather on differing lever setups. Mine has location and comfort, in mind, for me. This setup keeps my two fingers close to the front of the lever(Without sliding back and forth), as I like to keep my trigger finger inside the lever, as I work it. I like to think it is a stable controlled setup, while levering as fast as possible. Hope this helps you down the trail!

I replied and asked another 1-3 questions.

Hello Prairie Dawg, i am pretty interested, but what type of leather rig you used these with? Did you shoot em for gunfighter? Duelist? two handed? Many thanks for any info and\or pictures. Oklahoma Dee

Is that a 19" barrel length? On the short stroke action, is it a cut n weld or a C&I, or Pioneer? Is carrier still brass? Is that a straight trigger or the original one? Thank you kindly

Yes, I used it for Wild Bunch loads, 45colt and 45acp. As I recall, so did Evil Roy?!?!

Is there any update to his condition?

Outstanding and Truth Reflection. Well stated young man!!! Miss seein you, trust your well. Oklahoma Dee

Twas my first time to shoot this match. I thought is was very well setup. Good stages with easy instructions. Weather was mild and friendly. This seems to be a pretty good club, I hope some members will step up and get on the board and continue the monthly shoots.

Very special folks and setting it up in a short time period, is something that is a wonder.

What brass are you using? Not all brass have the same primer pocket depth.

Well, golly...only read the words and boom... So sad your not coming this year. Many kind thanks, Randy Saint Eagle!!!!! That looks to be a great stage!!!

Hmmmm, Maybe I do not see what folks are worried about knockdowns?! That stage, with knockdowns previewed...., is that not, for the Wild Bunch stage? Help me see the light!

I ask you how do you know?

Looks to be a great 2 days of shooting. Shoot stages that reflect the National Championships at Winter Range. ok........maybe the targets are tad closer....

See you all there.

Hey now, you gotta be there! Your the 2016 Overall Champ of Fire and Ice. Drive wisely.

The Cowtown Cowboys Shooters are hosting one of the great shoots again. Who is getting to go? I plan on being there.

Take nothing away from Dirt Merchant, he was doing SKB action jobs before they were popular. That said, I can see where a stuck hull might be a little bit easier to shuck with a unified extractor versus a split. No over governing evidence, just my thoughts, be that right or wrong. When two split extractors are welded together there is one moving piece, versus two moving pieces doing the work. I would imagine that the welded one piece is more reliable and efficient then two. Speed aside, I am referring to consistency in doing a particular job. Any game is about efficiency, the fewer unknowns or moving parts one has to worry about.... the more focused one can be. Another example is the Ruger Vaquero transfer bar....Some shooters say it works perfectly and are happy with leaving it in, other shooters remove it, do to the potential risk of breaking during a match. Shooters choice. Any way you look or feel about it, shooters get to do, (within the current laws) what they think will work best for them. Great sport.

Buckles are high on the list, Chaps, Spurs, Bowie Knives, Pocket knives, Roper Cuffs......

Sad to hear of his passing, condolences to his surviving family. Kansas City Sneed Oklahoma Dee

I know a World Champ that shoot one. So, heck yes.
