I think I'll wait on the Youtube reviews before investing Bob bucks in cast iron bullets.

Let me ask a Wild Bunch Question
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to nunnfaster, SASS #51021's topic in SASS Wire
Wild Bunch has recently been liberalized cannibalized reconfigured adjusted so that any SASS legal rifle and shotgun may be used. The requirements for a .45 caliber 5 inch barrel, 1911 are still the same. I really don't have any opinion yet about the change in rifle and shotgun requirements. I understand why they did it and I hope it brings in more people to shoot it. That was the goal. -
do you suppose ballistics could tell?

Do your drive by shooting and throw out a handfull of range pickup brass. That'll keep the crime lab busy for a while. -

Yes, the picatinny rail would only be legal in Modern. Most things are legal on the 1911 Modern category. Things that are not are lasers, compensators and giant mag well funnels. The Traditional category is the one that is restricted to what Saint John Moses Browning intended. -
I heard they are moving EOT back to Indiana in September. Nicer weather and shorter drive for management. How's that for stirring the pot?

South Carolina has come a long way in recent years. Just a few years ago, they wouldn't recognize Georgia's carry permit because Georgia didn't have a testing/training program requirement. Georgia would only recognize another state's carry permit if they recognized Georgia's. South Carolina finally came around several years back. Somebody influential must have gotten in a bind is my guess.

Do this to calm your angry wife

I've got a basement. Over the years, it's turned into a really nice basement. -
And on top of all that, he gets everything and everybody packed into a Camaro. The Burt Gang are good people. It's been a pleasure watching the kids grow up over the years. Each one of them seems to get faster every year, except for Capt. BB, of course. He's always been fast.

How long did it take ya'll to put all the pieces together? I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at that case conference. -

I guess that's better than they found you lacking moral character and going to raise your mortgage payment $100. They probably would word it differently. -

Hiring incompetence may be cheap now, but sooner or later, you're going to pay. -
I ordered stuff that was shipped by UPS. I'll be expecting delivery and checking their website. Then I will see that it says it was delivered. But, I don't have it and I've been home all day waiting for it. I'm thinking those idiots have lost my package or delivered it to the wrong house. Turns out they often drop off small packages at the local post office for the final leg of the journey. The mail lady delivers it the next day.

I got a $50 Mastercard debit card from T-Mobile for signing up for their 5G Home Internet. I tried to use it at Midway USA and several other online shooting websites. It wouldn't work. After considerable frustration, I went to T-Mobile's website and pulled up my account and paid the $50 on my bill. I guess they couldn't refuse to accept their own worthless Mastercard debit card.

I found that I really dislike the Dillon powder check system with it's constant chirping. I have replaced it with the RCBS Lockout die on my pistol dies. Much quieter and makes sure I don't have a double charge or no charge. It only works on straight wall cartridges so I still have to use the Dillon powder check chirper on the bottle neck rifle rounds like .223.

Self-Driving Cars Repossess Themselves

GM has had Onstar for many years. It is capable of shutting the car off in case of theft. -
Cimarron 1887 or Stoeger Coach Gun?
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Mossy Horn Gent's topic in SASS Wire
I shot a Stoeger SxS for about 7 years. It was all slicked up and I thought it worked pretty good. Then someone loaned me a Fast Eddie SKB. DO NOT borrow a Fast Eddie SKB if you want to keep shooting cheap shotguns. It'll never be the same. -
I've had the TST-507 tire pressure monitor system on my camper for the past 7 years. It works great as long as you understand it's weaknesses. The flat watch type batteries need changing at least every other year. They recommend putting metal valve stems in the wheels because the centrificle force on the standard rubber valve stems could lead to premature failure. The sensors are just screwed on to the valve stem and the air is sealed with a rubber o ring inside the sensor. It takes a special anti-theft wrench. The more you take them on and off, the more often you may experience a slow leak. Don't cross thread them. It's easy to do. You can also create a leak at the wheel/valve stem if you tighten or loosen the sensor without supporting the valve stem. You often hear horror stories about Chinese tires blowing up and causing all kinds of damage. I suspect what is happening is a slow, undetected leak leads to over heating and then sudden failure. You won't feel a trailer tire going flat like you will on you passenger vehicle. You'll only get notified of the flat tire during disintegration as it whips around and beats your trailer to death. The best trailer tires made won't survive being driven at highway speeds with no air pressure.

I like the Marlins that leave them in a nice pile on the table.

You could probably get a little more for it if you cleaned, sorted by caliber, brass vs. nickel, and sold it by 250-500-1000 round lots.

They probably have some AT&T guy working on it.

Those Vikings were sailing all over the place and looting/trading stuff back then. It probably has an interesting story to tell if it could only talk.

I remember Flint McCloud. He made the trip cross country to shoot Ambush in Alabama around 2010. He was Wire buddies with Cherokee Charlie, Bama Red and several others that have passed on. Lost track of him over the years. RIP old friend.

SC is the only match we are commuting to. We can't camp on the range and there's nothing much near the range. It's about 1 1/2 hour drive from the house so Kajun and I just drive. In years past, we stayed at a COE campground on Lake Hartwell but that's still a 45 minute drive to the range. We decided that wasn't close enough to be convenient and was more trouble than it was worth.
