Nutmeg Ryder, SASS # 74966

Hi Sheriff, Talk with Slippery, he want through it with all three girls. If I remember correctly they all used a 12 gauge shotgun, the stock was cut super short, and he loaded the shells just like he shoots, but dumped 1/2 or so of the shot out. And they still knocked over the targets. 22 for Rifle and pistols, but not for long, went to 32 rugers and 38 rifles, with light loads. But it really depends on the young'n and the level of physical ability. I guess that may not be helpful!

I run a 650N with adjustable powder and shot bar. It has been dead accurate since I set it up about 10 years ago. I check each session before I start but have never had to adjust except wanting to tweak something. Now, don't get me started on the primer feed.....

There are now only two Minor Safety penalties. A round not under the hammer or in a cocked revolver leaving the shooters hand is neither of these. From SHB PG 23 Inadvertently left rounds in a revolver are misses, unless there is an unfired round under the hammer, in which case it is a Stage DQ. So the round in the revolver, making the assumption, the revolver was not cacked again is just a miss. Back to the OP. P for 9th round not hitting the correct target, Miss for the unfired round. And TO's are human, and if not 100% sure the shooter had only fired 9 and tellng them one more it they had shot 10 would be grounds for a reshoot as impropper coaching. Not saying anything is not improper coaching, and not grounds for a reshoot. Responsibility belongs to the shooter.

From SHB Page 23 V27.9 May 12,2025 "Changing location with a long gun with the action closed and the hammer cocked (exception for long guns from the loading table to the stage with no round chambered)" Also see how to handle this situation for a rifle on page 12 of the SHB. For a shotgun it's easy, open it, access a penalty if there is a round in the chamber(s) This rule applies only from the loading table to the shooting line. Does not apply from shooting line to ULT. (Stop, open it) Breaking the basketball traveling rule would equal a SDQ

I am the TG for the only affiliated club in my state. There are people who shoot at my club on a regular basis, that are not members of the cowboy club, but are SASS members. When the current (and last votes) came up I sent an email to the club members looking for their vote, I note how each has voted add my own vote and that is how "we" vote. As here in New England states and clubs are in close proximity, I did put in my email that if they are members of another club, only vote once, either with my club, or the other. I also welcomed others who are not my cowboy club members to vote with us, if they had not been contacted by their TG. I feel every SASS member in good standing should have a say, but some do not "belong" to a specific club.

I should have stated the the Smokeless is "factory" but does lack info. The BP Sub loads were handloads.

I recently aquired some loaded 45-70 roulds. They are either smokless(with no load data other than 405grain projectile) and BP Sub (again no load data just bullet weight) If I take these to the range to "unload" them in my handy rifle, do I need to be concerned with shooting both the smokeless and BP subs without significant cleaning of the barrel? Not knowing the loads, these will be emptied and loaded to match my 130 year old trapdoor needs.
