Window shopping for guns one day, when I noticed some cowboy guns in the display, man behind the counter noticed the sparkle in my eye, and started to show me all the different ones they owned. Walked out with my first Ruger New Vaquero, on the way out, shop keep told me he was gonna put in an order for some new Rugers, and that he'll see me in a few months when I get my 2nd one. Few months later, went back an purchased a 2nd Ruger, and the same shop keep told me about SASS, and gave me info for a local club.....where I met Johnny Swan, and Tinker Joe, after a few matches, I ended up joining SASS in summer of '06.
Tinker Joe doesn't get out much if at all to shoot anymore.
Still working on bringing Johnny Swan to the darkside.....

My pair of 1860s used to bind up real bad, even during a stage with clean cylinder faces, and fresh loob on the arbor.
Not sure what you use, but I found synthetic grease on the arbor, and a drop or two of Triflow in the cylinder/arbor gap when the gun is reassembled keeps 'em running for five stages without any problem. Maybe this combo might work on your Remmie's.....

I personally prefer shooting monthly matches straight through without stopping for lunch. Cold, or hot weather, can really be a flat tire on an extended day.
Enjoy going to a local cantina and cooling off, or warming up, after a few hours of shooting.

I will give this a try .
Thank you.
To clarify, cause I can't type, I always thought the TOP shell would be staggered forward. I fixed my post.
I watch some tube of you videos of Lassister, and it looks like he has his top shell staggered forward.

I was gunho to purchase one a few years ago, then I had a chance to actually hold one, found it was too awkward to hold, and fumbly when trying to cock it.

Stagger your shells when you drop them in. Bottom shell forward of the bottom shell.
Like this.
I thought the top shell should be staggered forward.....
.....anyway, I've got 4 months to practice.

Who was Captain Schaeffer?
Only thing my google fu is able to turn up is that he was some dude who was some sorta of commander in the Mexican-American War, then was involved with the Virginia 5th Brigade during the Civil War..........
