Chickamauga Slim

Rest in Peace Cowboy!

TW, We have an Evil Roy Henry that Widder worked his magic on. I'd be happy to bring it to a match Rowdy Riley could take it for a spin and see how it feels. Chickamauga

Ruthie & I each have a "range bag" where we store/keep our leather, eyes & ears, and all accouterments. I have a tool box with emergency tools/parts and I keep an ammo bag stocked with 4 boxes of shells, 100 rounds ea of 38 & 45. Guns are stored in 2 rifle cases, 2 pistol cases. We can hit the road to the range by loading guncart, 2 range bags, , 2 pistol cases, 2 rifle cases, ammo bag, tool bag, and water/snack bag into the truck. Everything (except water/snacks) gets reworked before storing when coming in so we are ready at short notice to load & go. That should make the checklist simple..... Still got to the range one morning without my rifle case. No rifle, no shotgun. Maybe a checklist is a good idea.

I'll take 'em Dantankerous! Let me know where to send the funds.

As a teenager I was a horseback trail guide at Chickamauga Battlefield. Slim seemed like a good joke when I started shooting since I hadn't weighed less than 340lbs since I was in my 20's.

Tequila, Let me be the first to invite you to the Tennessee State match this October. We don't care whether you're a new shooter or a seasoned competitor but we guarantee you'll have a good time. I look forward to meeting you there! Chickamauga Slim

I got a new Lee Ergo Prime in the hopes that it would work better than their last hand held primer. I can't get this thing to feed small pistol primers. They don't seem to fit in the elevator. Could I be doing something wrong or did I just waste my money?

Branchwater, Your attitude & the energy you bring to a match is one of the many reasons why I'm proud to be a Wartrace Regulator and ride the trail with you! When I pull my last smokewagon I hope you are there, I just hope it's many a shoot before that has to happen! Keep up the great work, you represent the best of SASS & the very best of Wartrace. I am Chickamauga Slim and I approve this message

Mr. W, I ordered a rough stock from Taylors for less than $100. 1/2 day with a sander & dremel tool & bI had it fitted to my wifes rifle, cut to her length of pull and finished to match the forestock. You might give that a try.
