Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L

while it was not mentioned in the description is the Dillon primer filler machine part of this sale? cr

can't tell if my oilskin has developed some mold or what. while overall dirty from table saw there are locations were I have about pencil eraser sized greenish spots. While they never seem be larger they do vary in amounts on various places on coat. Big question is if it is a bit of mold how to remove it Going to go with dry stiff brush with breathing mask as a start. someone suggested hydrogen peroxide. Not thinking bleach is a good thing to try. Might go with a bit of Dawn and water with stiff brush and good rinsing. Open to knowledge of wire thanks cheyenne

same here. been that way for over a week now cr

right now 19º in 'Toad' Mission I've got two pair of long johns on and headed north for all the fun and games. Have to embrace what our northern friends shoot in 8 months a year cr

Good Evening Cowfolk, To support our brothers at the top of the map and to protest the lack of Chinese food at the South Pole we will be having our regularly scheduled match tomorrow. As always it will be held at the “Toad” Mission location Arriving at 8 a.m. we will be greeted by mild 25º temps and a north wind of 9 mph resulting in a wonderful chill factor of 16º. By the end of the match around 1 p.m. the temp will be at a balmy 38º with the winds dropping to 7 mph still from the north translating into an equally fantastic chill factor of 32º; at least we don’t have snow to shovel. Smart money is the ice will hold over the low water crossing so no cars should be lost downstream. For this one match summer dress is again allowed and there is talk of having a snow cones at the end. So pack you gear, dig out the long johns, and we’ll see you around 8:15 for the start of TRR’s 2017 shooting season. http://www.thunderriverrenegades.com/ cheyenne

I went with a .38 with mine and am very happy. Saw a few guys shoot on in .45 and that's just too much recoil for me. I must admit that my .38 derringer loads are the same as the .32 Long ones and of course the lightest bullet you can find--think mine is Lee's 105 gr one. with it I can hit a paper plate at 20 yards but have to take careful aim also aiming points are different for each barrel and yes, I realize they were used at distances that didn't require sights cr

they are correct that Lee molds have a learning curve. That being said once you get one up and running you now have the cheaper Lee molds as an option. here are a couple of links to getting Lee's running (being retired I have more time than money so I can invest some sweat equity in them): http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?4790-This-is-a-Lee-6-cavity-mould and http://castboolits.gunloads.com/showthread.php?654-Sure-Fire-Lee-Menting-Technique-(Aimoo-Post-Revisited) With two rotator cuff surgeries I can't hold iron or brass molds for any length of time.

It's been mentioned but I want to stress that treated wood is the way to go. We just got finished with a range clean up and ended up with 2, count them 2, burn piles each maxing out at 7 ft tall. most of that wood at one time could have been used but the elements have taken their toll. Even if you paint/seal or whatever wood will not last like untreated wood. cr

As a former passenger in choppers piloted by Air Cav pilots I welcome you though I doubt we met. I rode around way back in the 69-70 in RVN cr

The only problem with rebar is they stay hot a long time after the welding is done--ask me how I learn this cr

thing I find interesting in this post is I never knew this particular revolver existed (in the modern world--not getting back into historical accuracy)! Learn something new everyday... cr

+1 since they rotate and don't vibrate I think (hope) they will last longer. Only run it 2 hours per load, too

nice looking pair--I have the same in brown took the soles to a belt sander so I would have period-correct holes in the bottoms like they had during the Civil War

Know the feeling Kid, my comfort zone is narrowing each year. Was going to try to ride the bike (MC) today but slick roads and old bones don't match. 74º right now so all I need are some dry streets cr

pictures...pictures or it didn't happen

wonder what would happen if I put them in my .45 Colt frames?? cr

come on down and join in the fun thunderriverrenegades.com 1st full weekend of each month Also if you are willing to drive a bit the Willow Hole Cowboys are shooting the third Saturday of the month. They (we) are up in N. Zulch which is between Madisonville and College Station--a bit of a drive from Houston but fun never the less cheyenne

As a retired elementary teacher we had many discussions on participation trophies and NO, I'm not calling anyone children here. for the younger elves who probably don't know what in the world is going on they are getting something and seem generally happy. at about 2nd grade they understand the competition part of it and participation prizes are pretty much ignored by them As Evil Dog-ooder says in the OP, most folks like to get something at the beginning besides a bag of empty brass but as time passes their views change. It's just that the change happens at different times for different people: some by the second match; others maybe a few years down the trail and finally some never go through the change. This is a hobby/sport/obsession people take up for fun and I'm all about allowing them to have fun according to their own criteria

here in one place that reloads your brass (there is something about reloading used cases vs. new ones as far as our friends at AFT are concerned https://www.kingshooters.com/bullet-manufacturing-i-88.html don't have a dog in the fight, just found it on google. If interested I do know of another cowboy around Dallas that does the same thing cr

I've been powder coating my own bullets. Using powder, tumble in a #5 tub and then 'cook' in a toaster oven. Love them and if they make a mold for the bullet I can PC it. here is a link over on cast boolits that deals with Hi-Tek as well as PC them. I'm Walter Laich over there: http://castboolits.gunloads.com/forumdisplay.php?184-Coatings-and-Alternatives cr

I found some carpenter pants that are made of same material as the pants my uncle gave me in RVN only color is 'natural' Took the belt loops off and wear with suspenders. Great in Texas heat and humidity cr

We did food for a few years but all the work kept falling to the officers and the donations weren't meeting expenses so we dropped them. Funny thing: no one really complained about them being gone, either???? Guess it was one of the side benefits that wasn't really a benefit. Annual we contract with a BBQ trailer and they come out and feed the masses. We used to assign a officer to this but was way too much work for a couple of people. Tried catering from existing restaurants: didn't provide what they said they would; boy scouts: guess they were working on their "watching squirrels" merit badges and didn't follow through and getting members to provide a dish or two was a total disaster. cr

Found one of these under the Christmas Tree a few years ago--I hate to admit it but I'm spoiled. Did learn the translucent plastic part that covers the hole inside the machine can bend down from spending several summers in a Texas garage. WARNING--DO NOT DO THIS--IT IS DANGEROUS (for information only): since I had to take the heavy lexan clear cover off now and then I just threaded the bolts in from the bottom of their holes and the cover sits on them aligned correctly. If something went wrong inside (like a boom) figure the cover would take off like a rocket through the ceiling and roof. but then I used to jump out of perfectly good government airplanes in my youth cr

same here I do mark all the pistol with a black stripe and rifle loads with a red stripe. use Red Dot for everything and I can tell bullets by shape put new reloads on bottom of stack so I 'rotate my stock' cr

now if I just had some extra money laying around cr
