Possum Skinner, SASS#60697

What’s your favorite start line(s) for hot weather? Mine is: ”It’s hotter than a boot full of red ants!”

I LIKE starting lines and always try to make them make sense for the stage they’re on. I LIKE it when shooters say the line. HOWEVER, I’m not going to get butt hurt when they don’t say it. Sometimes it’s because they forgot the line. Sometimes it’s because they want to say something different. Whatever. I DO especially like to shoot with folks who are having fun!

Sounds like a timing issue. I strongly suggest you have a competent '73 smith take a look at it. On a side note, the rifle was manufactured by Uberti and imported by Navy Arms.

I certainly agree that it helps keep CAS a friendly sport. However, it’s NOT an issue in CAS. Every big money prize I’ve ever seen given away was a random drawing or maybe “middle of the pack”. Except once we had a derringer donated with the stipulation it would go to a randomly drawn clean shooter.

Optional reshoot should be offered

At one time T-Bone and Co. gave away custom engraved long guns that were VERY nice. It was a series. Gave away one each year for three years. One of them was a beautiful rolling block that I would have loved to win. In truth, I can't say I've ever won a gun I wasn't happy I won.

I’ve been using 158gr Snakebites for years in rifle. Prefer 125’s for pistol. i think if long enough, I’d like to use 133’s in both guns.

The way it should be. Thank you SASS!!!

It’s Ginger and MaryAnn

There are a few minor differences in the original TTN’s and the current iteration, but the are functionally the same.

Going forward, it appears there’s Lock-tite on every screw.

Since when has Uberti been putting Lock-tite on side plate screws? Ugh! Red no less. Had to use impact to break it loose.

Maybe he's out shooting...

Yes. Use a stick to press caps onto nipples completely. NEVER use your thumb! If one goes off it will do very nasty things to your digit. I use a piece of antler for this. You are not compressing BP too much. Some use a nipple pick after loading to ensure a good avenue for fire to reach powder. Possum

Yes.

Shot Hell on the Border. Rain held off for the shooting and it was a first rate match!

I totally agree, La Sombra. Excellent match as always!

If you don't miss you weren't going fast enough.

She used a stencil or two on the snakes you see on the SG targets and finished them by hand. I think the other targets were all hand work.

Mine stays hanging on my gun cart.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY paints targets like Lily Gray paints our targets for Bayou Blast! Here’s a taste:

You can satisfy some people most of the time and most people some of the time, but never all the people all the time.

We are now allowing it, but not eligible for overall.

All of ya'lls helpful advice is sincerely appreciated. He's been monitoring this post, so hopefully has seen something he hadn't checked yet. Just for the record, he's a pretty good gun mechanic and the professional he had put in extractor is a very good one, but apparently we were still missing something.
