It has come to my attention that there are folks out there that are loading Shotshell with less than 3 grains more blackpowder than I use in .45 Colt .... These loads hardly smoke more than old IVI smokeless loads ... It is in my opinion pushing things too far ,,, shotshells used in the Blackpowder classes should smoke more than smokeless.to a noticeable degree .... I shoot FCD and my loads SMOKE .... Do I expect everyones loads to be as smokie as mine NO ! Flame away ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I do ... Jabez Cowboy

Pat Riot ; It was worth a try... All the best to you , from an old Dirt Tracker,Motocross, Crosscountry and street rider ... Jabez Cowboy

Pat Riot Pard get yourself some big ,I mean BIG life insurance policy and she might just find it easyer to let you go ride that new KLR 650....... Jabez Cowboy

And I assume you don't know nothing .... I shoot doubles with hammers the newest about 90 years old the oldest made in 1884 all with black , cleared the saloon at WR when I started shooting ,,, .45 colt with a compressed charge of Goex 3F under a 270 gr. RNFP (2,3 grains less than your Shotshells).. Or my Open-Tops in .44 spl. using drop-tubed in compressed loads under 240 gr, RNFP ... My lightest loads used in this game in 12ga are 4.3 CCs of 3F Goex under 1 1/8 oz. of shot ... Compared to my loads yours I might mistake yours as smokeless !!! Jabez Cowboy

SORRY I mistakenly thought that in Shooting BLACKPOWDER it is expected that your guns should make smoke !!!!! Or move on over to the smokeless categories .... Jabez Cowboy

Ole Stud Muffin , has been known ta slip on a banana peel as well ... Merry Christmas TS Jabez Cowboy

Up here 1994 Cowboy rifles in .45 colt go for 200 - 300 dollars more than the model 1895 in .45-70 ... This goes for both New and Used .... Jabez Cowboy

A better year should be coming up this year ... Jabez Cowboy

I had a Pietta and I have a Uberti 58 ... The Pietta was junk !!! The Uberti will shoot better groups at 75 yards than the Pietta will at 50 Feet ... I kept the Uberti not so the Pietta ... I find cocking the Remmies to be slow and a hard reach for the hammer ... They are fine for target work ... But they do NOT fit my hands near as nicely as a Navy Grip Colt ... Nor do they point as naturally ... Jabez Cowboy

Why ??? Bother ... Jabez Cowboy

Ya all know da saying that all things is bigger in Texas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, is just not so B.C. is bigger than the state of texas , has Bigger Mountains, More Grizzlies, Bighorn sheep, rivers, deeper lakes, more coast line and mountain Goats Did that get yer Goat ??? And a way More Snow .... God Bless one an all .... Jabez Cowboy

Ya all should come up here for some great matches .... And a visit to Cow Country , my "Trading Area" has 10,000 people and 1.7 million Cows .... Ya might even meet some real Cowboys .... Jabez Cowboy

Howdy all: Wishing you all a great shooting year in 2017... Jabez Cowboy

Prayers continuing from da North ... Jabez Cowboy

Merry Christmas ta ya bunch of Missfits... Jabez Cowboy

Some years ago I offered to help the factory get the BB to run better for this game, they rebuffed me quite rudely ,stating that their guns were USA made and ran as intended.... This moment of weakness was brought on by trying to help a very fine older Gentleman on a limited budget stay in the game with-out the constant struggle with his gun... The good news was he found a Rancher to buy the BB for a knock-about gun and I found him a lightly used 92 to which I added a little free smoothing.... He shot that 92 for 4 years before his passing ... Jabez Cowboy

Don't know anyone that want's to work on them !!! Jabez Cowboy

Or you could just shoot Goex 3F in everything.... Jabez Cowboy

I have loaded mine with a 300 gr. Speer Plated soft nose bullet to 1,540 fps for use on our big Whitetails , sure does the job.... Jabez Cowboy

Thanks for making the effort to improve this for all. Jabez Cowboy

Just remember the WINCHESTER 24 is US made and a lot cheaper than M-21 .... Jabez Cowboy
