2024 Tennessee State Championship
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903's topic in SASS Wire
He probably had some of those Widder Humming Bird thumbs installed. All this talk about tendons is just misdirection. -

My turn to seek out the Prayer Posse
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Blackwater 53393's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Prayers up for Schoolmarm's recovery. Get well soon and I hope to see both of you at Kentucky State. -
You may have some tight primer pockets. This gauge will identify the problem cases. I used one to check .223 brass for swaged primer pockets. https://ballistictools.com/store/reloading-products/swage-gage-small-primer-pocket

I'm not a pilot but I suspect that the landing fees as some place like Atlanta would be pretty expensive. Better choose your international airport carefully.

I save up the small pistol primer 45 acp brass. After a couple of years, I load up what I have collected and shoot them at a Wild Bunch match where I get very little pistol brass back. Common firing lines, shooting through windows etc.

Cop shoots own police car after an acorn hits it!
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Itchy Trigger's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
We had a case where an officer shot a female and the bullet passed through the female suspect and also killed her mother who was standing behind her. The mother was part of the domestic dispute but not the intended target. The officer was using department issued Hornady Critical Defense 9mm. -
As soon as she takes a bite of that wedding cake, she'll gain 40 lbs and that dress will never fit again anyway.

Mag dump because of acorn.

Adrenalin and panic really play tricks on a weak mind. -
Today's question is about extradition
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I guess it all depends on how bad the U.S. wants you. The U.S. military went into Panama and arrested Noriega, transported him to the U.S., tried him in a U.S. court and he's still sitting in a U.S. Federal prison in Miami. -

I'm not making excuses for this goober. He should find another occupation. However, in his defense, the police academy and training units do everything they can to wind up officers with the officer survival mindset. It's a constant barrage of, this is how this officer got killed because they got sloppy or used poor officer survival tactics. It a challenge to get the officers to think clearly and calmly when in high stress situations and maintain the ability to evaluate threats correctly and act within policy. Obviously, this officer failed at this. -
Oppps. Forgot about the internal locks. Totally worthless attempt to placate lawyers. I have a pair of 510's with the internal locks that have functioned flawlessly for 19 years.

I am not aware of any changes Ruger has made to the New Model Vaquero since it was introduced in 2004. They are all durable. Either one of those will last a lifetime and be exactly like the rest of them.

WTB Shotgun Targets
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to nunnfaster, SASS #51021's topic in SASS Wire Classifieds
I can't count the number of clubs around the Southeast that use Pig Iron's targets. I think we have 40 of them. -
Case Trimming Question(s)
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Buckey O'Neill , SASS Life #42761's topic in SASS Wire
The only brass that needs to be trimmed is bottle necked rifle brass. No need to trim pistol brass. It will split long before it needs trimming. Same goes for annealing pistol brass. Total waste of time. -
Pretty much any police officer will be glad to run a gun through NCIC to check for stolen. The only thing is, he will want to physically see the gun and if it is stolen, he is going to seize it. They are not going to tell you over the phone if the gun is stolen or not, for obvious reasons.

All signed up and waiting on Spring. Looking forward to it.

This quick release for the Dillon powder measure is the best thing since sliced bread. No tools needed to dump powder. I have them on both of my 650's. https://www.armanov.com/shop/qrdpc-quick-disconnect-for-dillon-powder-measure-90?category=63#attr= Sorry for changing the subject. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

I have found that I can reload shotgun shells for about 2/3 the price of new shells. I can buy the components in bulk when I find a good price and I can tailor the load to suit my needs. With components on hand, I can make shells as needed. Not being able to find Remington STS factory shells for a couple of years forced me back into reloading. I recently bought a Mec 9000 reloading press, so hopefully, it will reduce my hatred of reloading shotgun shells.

They referred to it as the Rule of Sequestration around here. Or just envolking "The Rule" for short. Witnesses were instructed by the judge to go outside the courtroom and not talk about the case with other witnesses. If you are released from your subpoena, you can stay in the courtroom or go home. The judge will clarify your status as you leave the witness stand.

Dillon XL650 Dropping Second shell
Badlands Bob #61228 replied to Buckshot Bear's topic in SASS Wire
I had a problem with the shuttle that moves back and forth from the case feeder tube to the final drop tube. My spring got weak and wasn't fully returning. This resulted in cases not getting dropped onto the shell plate but not multiple cases dropping. Something around that shuttle may be gunked up and sticking. It's got to be in that area if your getting multiple cases being dropped. -
Because when your shooting Double Duelist, you are so close to shooting Gunfighter, you may as well just make the leap.
