  1. PM sent. Stock is yours. Al M. W couldn't use it after all. Still available for shipping. Al
  2. I have up for grabs a really short '97 stock. This was on a gun I traded for and would be great for a small person or youth. Original stock. No cracks, no butt plate. Wood measures 10 & 1/2 in long from butt to receiver. Yours for shipping. Should fit in a med one rate box. Al
  3. I have several competition  ready , all take down matching number Winchester 97' shotguns , cut to 20" & beaded , they all hold 6 rds. , with original length stocks  or shortened . $575.00 - $750.00

      The one for $750.00 was my backup gun forever but only shot about 20 rds. , this one is a very nice shot gun , when I buy a better  97' ,  it goes in the safe and I cut the barrel down of the lesser nice shotgun . Most of my guns will close the action by just shaking it with one hand forward , they are that smooth , so , you get what you pay for , just like having your 73' short stroked .

      No, too far to go for a weekend shoot.  Nice place to visit tho.  Always enjoy the riverwalk area and, of course, a visit to the Alamo.

  5. You can contact Bo Diddley's widow she has a Dillon balance beam. I don't recall price.

  6. There are a number of molds available, but, in my experience, you will be better served using round balls. They will seat better, load easier, and shoot straighter than a conical. The above is IMHO. Enjoy yer new toys. Al
  7. A 200 count bag of 250 gr, gas checked, smokeless lubed commercial cast bullets (don't remember who cast them). I have gone to Holy Black, so I won't shoot these anymore. $25.00 shipped in a one rate box. Al Knew I forgot sumptin'. .378 dia. SOLD to cowrustler Pending. Thanks Al
  8. I use Alliant 5744. Clean, not position sensitive, easy ignition with std primers. Al
  9. I think my mule has died, so I'm just gonna' stop kickin' him. Won't do no good nohow. Best to all. Al
  10. Rolan, I take umbrage at that remark. I am A LIFE member, have been since their (SASS) earlier financial distresses', when I opted in for the life to help out. The use of the forum site and an ad filled chronicle seems to be the only perks I get from them nowdays. And in answer to the question, what does an annual have to do in reguard to the fees?? If you don't put one on, they aren't interested in you or your club. I know this from personal contact with the HQ. And yes, I have assisted in putting on a major shoot. Yes, it is a lot of work. Lone Star Frontier Shooting club/CVV are class shooting groups and have the premier shooting facility in North Texas IMHO. Shot there many times, but health has kept me away the last too many months.

  11. Again, well and good. BUT, our matches are shot on TWO bays, just changing scenarios, using the same target setups. We can't put anything on the range unless we are shooting it. We don't have the afternoon before the shoot to use the range. It is open to "casual" shooting by other club members. At the end of our shooting day, the range is again, turned over to casual shooting. We've explored this from every angle, and decided it isn't worth persuing. "Nuff said!! No annual. SASS Hq isn't interested in us, thus we aren't interested in them as our governing body. We still practice the "Cowboy Way", just don't pay them for the privlige. Al
  12. GCK, I laud the club for doing this. BUT, here again, crops up the problem we have. We have CAS range space for only 4 stages, and we get to use it ONE day a month, for approx. 6 hrs, and have to remove ALL targets etc from the range at the end of the shooting day. Pray tell me how we could put on an annual?? I asked the same question of SASS and received NO REPLY.
  13. We are part of a much larger shooting club, and as such, have limited range use time. Thus, a multi day shoot is out of the question. Best to all, and a good shooting year ahead. Al
