  1. I don't think you're making anyone mad...on the "spotter" thing I was just clarifying. We have a PF of 60. It's low relative to other shooting sports but SASS/CAS caters to a group that is generally much older and recoil is a concern for many of them. Shoot what you enjoy as long as it's within the rules. But please understand that He-Man heavy loads while being legal, do have an effect on others. We shoot steel and at a close distance...but if you think accuracy isn't important...yer just kidding yourself. Phantom PS: You are probably the first person that I've ever heard say that they don't enjoy shooting 22's...most of the actual friends I have enjoy shooting 22's above all else.
  2. They're called "Spotters". Missed calls...having three different "miss" callouts, will happen on heavy loads as well since often times the Spotters will be squinting in anticipation of the loud report...wondering how much more of it they can take before they need to go back to the audiologist to be fitted for new hearing aids. Also, as I'm sure you're aware of, there is a minimum PF that should be enforced. If you think the rounds are not meeting the PF, call it. I'll also add that since we are shooting steel and not bad guys of the "old west", that heavy man killer loads only kills the hearing of the other competitors...bad guys don't really exist down range... Cheers! Phantom
  3. Go with whatcha like...but the increased sight radius isn't needed for this game. Phantom
  4. Introducing into a match a firearm that folks are not familiar with is rather foolish. Do that stuff outside of an actual match. Phantom
  5. I say shooting a derringer one handed...in a timed event...is a no-no in my book. Phantom
  6. Guess yer right...just never seen "Classes" used to define our...categories. Don't think the word "Classes" is used in any of the Hanbooks. This is a new shooter that is entering this game/sport. I wanted to make sure that they don't start off using the wrong verbiage. Current Dealer cost on Pistol Primers (non-match), is about $65/1000. Currently you can get Pistol Primers for under $100. Phantom
  7. We call them "Categories", not "Classes". LP Primers are not terribly hard to get. Phantom
  8. Long Hunter is a Overall World Champ...all around Cowboy Gun Guy. I knows his sh...stuff. Phantom
  9. My recommendation...truly KNOW the person that you're getting info. from. I know that this is the SASS forum, but you'd be surprised at how much bad info. can be found here. Phantom
  10. I'd like to see pictures of your carrier. Phantom
  11. Wait a second!!!! You mean to tell me that the parts are the same and that the evil Remington parts are not the problem??? But everything Remington did was horrible and wrong...and ALL about the $$$$$$$. The parts can't be good! The have to be..."JM"... 🤪 Phantom
  12. I miss the people that have died I miss shooting with many folks Phantom
  13. The title of this thread is "Where have they gone"... Now it's "Where has the Topic gone".
  14. He passed away... I'll leave my comments to that...
  15. Heyya Cole!!

    Yep, they bought the land without knowing...or forgetting to find out about H2O. This is one reason why EOT is dusty...no H2O for water trucks. Then in 2007 the WB figured that a nice bronze and a regular buckle for the category winners was good enough. There was soooo much disappointment/complaining that the WB decided to reach into their own pockets and pay for...
