So sad to see "like-minded" folks working against each other. I remember when I was in Tucson (1996-2000) the push in the foothills to close down the range that had been open for about a hundred years due to homes being built close to that range. I shot trap out at the Tucson Rifle Club and loved what a nice range it was, but I don't remember any CAS out there. We have had the same in Georgia with shotgunners working against Cowboys. With all of the outside interests trying to push out shooters, we need to stick together more than ever.

You feel like you've run a "big boy" time. Yes, if Lead Dispencer or (add name) ran it, they'd run a sub-10, but YOU did it, you broke your best time ever and that makes YOU feel good. If your accomplishments are

Some of the best advice ever given...

Well done!

Do it! You won't be sorry.

If it's right and tight, I'd jump right on that. Bargain!

Daughter shooters rule!

Open loading gate, turn cylinder. All Ruger single actions are that way; think they always have been. If ya do want that nice freespin, give Power Custom a jingle. That and other handy Ruger parts. Great Folks! https://www.powercustom.com/

That's one sharp rifle!

My daughter found me a great deal on Win Lg Pistol primers; $31.90/1000! Great... oh, they're in Queensland! Maybe you can get em. Haha
