I'm talking about redundancies like pistols holstered, etc. If instructions state place rifle at position 2 do I need to repeat, shoot rifle targets from position 2 when the rifle targets are right in front of that position. I'm long over the brevity, I just go to a match to shoot and bs with a couple friends. The fun ran out for myself, wife, and other's when everything turned into drag race shooting. Same with stage writing, I just want to see the bare bone description with simplicity. You need to come shoot Hell On Wheels and we'll discuss this and other topics.
-
Stage conventions should cover most questions. Pistols holstered should be a convention, no need to include the verbiage in the scenario. Shoot position convention should state one foot behind the plane of table or prop. We could reduce the stage write up and simplify match rules. Yes, conventions would have to be read to posse marshals before walk thru's. Typically, less is more.

Just because it's written doesn't mean folks read it.

I like movement, down range and lateral. Just because there's movement doesn't mean one must run. If you can walk a few yards between shoot positions maybe it's time to hang up your hat. Stand and deliver is a sign of lazy stage writing. Targets shouldn't be lined up perfectly with the same sized targets, outlaws and renegades aren't all the same size. Don't like SG all from one position. Although I like the facility at Ben Avery I really wish they'd build some walls between the bays. Permanent facades lead to redundant stages, people just write around what's already set up month after month. Catering to the retired is a losing proposition, we need to cater to 30-40 year olds. I've been shooting CAS for 28+ years, been MD, written hundreds of scenarios, set up hundreds of matches, etc. This June I'll be a Silver Senior and I'll still be running.

Costume question (Let's beat this horse some more)
Assassin replied to Shooting Bull's topic in SASS Wire
Just don't fall down and make my posse wait for an hour and a half to cart your big as off. Especially, in the rain. Was that 2016? -
I see the ammo. Don't see the guns. Although, I'm not looking for anything less than 12 gauge. I don't see a problem. There are quite a few 28 gauge reloading machines for sale.
-
28 gauge is pretty rare. Even if approved I doubt most would even encounter a shooter using a 28, I've no problem with allowing it.
-
Does this make their casting machines obsolete, will parts still be available?
-
There were other pump shotguns produced before 1918. Other than safety concerns, why aren't they allowed in WB shooting? Seems like if it doesn't say Winchester it's not worthy. Remington model 10, Browning A5, etc. And, folks wonder why WB never really caught on.
-
I try to keep 40 pounds of my sg/pistol powder. Only one pounders I buy are for hunting rounds. Don't shoot as much as I did. Maybe I'll become excited about shooting when or if I retire in a couple years.

Something new that I didn’t think would break
Assassin replied to Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life's topic in SASS Wire
That's about the only thing that hasn't broke on my 73's.. Have to have 3-4 rifles just like 97's when I shot them. -
Rumblings in the Desert - EOT 2024
Assassin replied to Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933's topic in SASS Wire
Just like the Widow Maker that San Juan use to have at his range. The ambulance and EMT's camped there for the weekend. -
Does anyone read the new shiny chronical? There was something about the old newspaper format that made folks want to pick it up. It was different not just a shiny magazine. Until there is a substantial increase of membership, advertisers won't pay for ads, which is what should be paying for the chronical.

Only a small percentage of shooters used TB. Most I know switched to Titegroup, Unique, Clay's, Red Dot, Promo, and other fast burning SG powders.
