  1. Hmmmmm, never used that Lucas solvent.  Are you shooting black powder subs?

     

    I do use any carb cleaner spray, from the chambers to the far end of the barrels....followed by a long brass brush up and down 3 -4 times.  Usually that breaks the plastic wad debris, carbon, etc...., then one to three cloth patches coated with Hornady one shot gun cleaner and lube. from the chambers to the end of the barrels.

     

    How old is this SxS?

    If you applied online:

     

    Call Sunshine Kay at 602-397-3434 if you do not get a “confirmation” email when you finish the application.

    Just what does a “confirmation” email. look like?

     

    Of the two emails I received, nothing has that wording on it.  One is the Shooter application receipt and the other is another receipt.

    It could be said that the shooter staged their firearm in the wrong location too.

    If the TO saw it and did not say anything that is one thing but to blame the TO because they missed that gun staging while they are doing about 20 other things is wrong. We have rules that plainly state the penalty, who is ultimately responsible for any mistakes.

     

    As a TO we try not to start a shooter in a defaulted position but there is a lot going on for the TO to keep track of. It Does not seem to much to ask that the shooter remember where to stage guns. 

     

    Nothing in the OP gives any reason for a re-shoot.

    OP states stages was read as written, which is required, then any corrections be addressed after the reading. Shooter walked away to load before PM was finished clarifying corrections . Its nice to be able to catch mistakes but I'm sure a hell not perfect and have yet to see anyone else who is either. 

    If you feel the TO did a poor job then that line on the registration form that says Posse with can be changed to dont posse with, My list is growing daily. 

     

    Outstanding and Truth Reflection.

  4. 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.

    what is the difference in the two Saddle ring carbine butt stocks?

    Irish Pat,

    there is a big enuff difference that a simple Uberti vs Old Winchester vs New Miroku Winchester carbine buttstock cover's do not fit interchangeably. 

    Then, there is the different Miroku carbine shotgun (kinda flat) buttstock vs the slightly curved buttstock vs the Trapper carbine.. So... they differ ever so slightly and hold leather differently.  I will confirm that when I receive the Trapper and compare it to the saddle ring carbine.

  7. I will ask, are these original 1870's or 1880's Springfield, 32" round with Buffington ladder sights, in 45-70?

     

     Or are they a replica and if so, what is the maker, model  and what is the barrel length, round or octagon and caliber your shooting?

     

    Round barrels can be dicey for distance.

     

    What is your load information?  Do you weight each bullet, each powder charge, and each brass?

  8. When I wore spurs to shoot in, I want them tight, I had to bend them myself.  Figure out what works for yourself.  This is a custom fit, and only you, can really modify them.  Besides, you learn some things....Like only you will know...:FlagAm::D

    One draw back to having tight spurs to shoot in, is they boot area where they sit.  It can become indented, if too tight, which changes the shape of the boot and the spur.

     

    Great luck,
