  1. Get the part numbers you want from the Dillonwebsite and phone them, they'll send you the parts for free and some, or lemme know what you want and I'll get em for you.

    Howdy Jack..Will see you Feb 4th..don't worry I had a shopping list !!

  2. Welcome JP

    You & yours will have a ton of fun with the Cowboy family..not many of us in Australia [ approx. 900 ] but we have a ball !! ..Tripping around is fantastic & experiencing the different clubs,.shoots, meeting new people etc is wonderful & more so in the USA.

     

    EOT is a blast , we hope to be back there in '019.

    I think around 25 from Down Under attending this year.......

    You will get a lot of offers to help ..because that's the way this family is.

  3. Thanks for the replies..very hard to get parts here in Aus although the maintenance kit is available.

    Been playing around with it & yes the plastic end has gone out of shape but added a weight to the top of the rod & seems to work better.

  4. Howdy

    I have a Square Deal, just starting to have a problem with the primer retaining pin & the fitting on the end of the primer magazine tube..both are plastic...is there an upgraded version out there ?

    Don't really want to stay with the plastic if possible..thanks

  5. I got a SDQ on the first stage once, walked to the shooting line ready to go and timer says STOP! your rifle hammer is cocked, not chambered but yep it was cocked, And boy did I get mad at( ME! ) how stupid could I be I said, Learned and never happened again.

     

    Renegade Ripley

    Yep nearly' done that a few times !!

  6. Your issue is not with powder coated bullets. It is with a crummy bullet caster. It's like painting a car. If you paint over dents the car is still going to be dented. Your heading makes it sound like the coating caused some sort of problem. That is apparently not so.

    Yep what Larsen said, unfortunately some sellers coat crappy bullets because it does cover up faults !

  7. Howdy Dutch Bear

    Yep still shoot smokeless but the BP is a close second, eventually all the time.Shooting a double cross draw so yes most times put both away with the L/hand...hope you have both been well ...Regards Mohawk

  8. Ain't technology great. Glad we have Grizz to help us.

    Such fun to see Mohawk all the way in Aussie land.

    A real Crocodile Dundee type.

    Great shooting.

    What a BP blast!

    Howdy Del Reo Pete..Thanks mate, yep that BP is a lotta' fun..I explain it as the 'BOOM is better than a bang !

  9. Powder coated bullets are very popular in Australia, probably around 90% use them, like them myself but as I have a magna-caster & with the time you put into it I am not prepared to spend extra time coating bullets....

  10. Nice run Mohawk. :) And now that you've been bit by the Darkside bug, I'm sure you'll find (just like I did) that smokeless just won't cut it any more! Nothin but real black for me for the last 6 years now.

     

    And thanks Grizz for the help you provide to us 'technically challenged' cowfolk! :P

    Howdy Titus

    That must be about the time [ 2011 ] when we met you at the Powder Creek Cowboy shoot..I too will end up shooting BP fulltime , just not yet.

    All the best to you & Fannie....Mohawk

  11. Hi Folks,

     

    I just received a video from our Australian friend, Painted Mohawk. He's shootin' "the Holy Black," as some of you call it.

    Regards,

     

    Allie

     

    PS I tried to embed the video; but, I guess I don't know how.

     

    Thanks Alli for trying..I'm danged if I can do it ...as I said don't have vids of my shooting so when Kathouse Kelli took this one I thought I'd put it up..luv the BP & maybe one day will shoot it fulltime...if anyone can help I don't have a link but can send it attached to an email..Regards Mohawk

  12. Hardpan: I'm in Ontario, Canada, so our employment laws are likely different.

    That said, here in Ontario, Canada, the circumstances of your leaving, could be construed as a firing.

    Here, if your labour lawyer gets involved, you may get a very hefty pay-out for every year you were with the company.

    Food for thought.

    In any case, enjoy your retirement, but if mine is any indication, you'll be busier than ever!! LOL 1

    Howdy Cold Lake..Similar here in Australia & further there are some companies that pay out a percentage of unused sick pay & if the employee gives notice & the employer brings the date forward then the $$ are still paid for the employee's date..but then our notice periods are only 1-4 weeks.Wages are 'Much' higher here than the USA however our cost of living is very much higher.Also we have compulsory superannuation payments made by the employer to employee's fund [ presently around 10% ]..13 weeks long service pay after 15 years & 4 weeks vacation pay each year.Although this is what should happen there are still employers who don't do the right thing! I was in the 90's a union official & had great pleasure in busting the rogues.

     

    Enjoy your retirement Hardpan ....

  13. SKB is just a whole lot better..well that's my thinkin' & I'm sticking to it..changed to a 200E 7 months ago & love it !! All slicked up & works a treat..bought for a bargain so that helped .
