Happy Birthday to the organization that helps me live the dream! May SASS continue to grow and thrive. And thanks for the great leadership, Misty.

Creeker In the proposed stage, there are 5 strings, including 2 revolver strings--whether you are shooting GF or not---because all shooters are changing firearm types 4 times. Yes, the stage conventions, as noted, require that the revolver be returned to leather at the end of the string, BUT those shooting GF style are expressly forbidden to reholster with the intent to use the revolvers again and so must shoot double duelist unless stage design accommodate grounding the pistols. Furthermore, as the relevant stage convention pertaining to a single revolver being deployed specifically notes, it may be overridden with instructions requiring or permitting the revolver to be staged rather than reholstered. It is not necessary that the revolvers first be staged in order to permit/require them to be staged after use. For the sake of clarity and consistency, in writing your stage instructions, you could simply require all shooters to stage the revolver(s) at the end of the first revolver string. Or you could permit it for those shooting other than GF style, allowing them the choice either of reholstering the first revolver or of staging it until the stage concludes.

Bucky was one of my favorite cowboys--always easy going, relaxed, smiling. Nice guy and lots of fun to be around. I had been following his travails, thanks to Rolan, and knew he was struggling. Whiskey and all his family will be in my prayers.

I have some badly dimpled shotgun knockdown targets. I wlll reverse those I can. But as for the rest, can they be ground down to recover a flat surface and used again or am I relegated to replacing them? Any advice on repairing dimpled steel, if that's a viable option, would be appreciated. Thanks.

Meant to add I use 5744 and Starline brass. Make sure you get the right brass.

The sight has to fit the tang, of corse. I was able to buy a Browning sight for my new Winchester High Wall at a good price and love it. Lee Shaver are great sights. MVA too, but more expensive. Will PM my 38-55 recipe for 250 gr bullet--very accurate at 300 yards. Have not shot longer ranges with it yet.

Happy to help. See you soon.

I am shooting 11am warmup but will be happy to help with afternoon long range as soon as I am done.

What a wonderful lady and friend. Hope to see you soon Chance

PM sent. Pale Ale, if for some reason the rig does not fit me, I will gladly turn them over to you at the same price. Cass

Dan If they are kicked out, steel lined and belled ( which they appear to be in pics), I'll take them. Are you coming to Roughshod Raiders First Ride? Cass

Sounds like an easy and perfect choice. Congrats Deadhead. Cass

Thanks for sharing, Mike. Very interesting. Maybe not exactly what we do here--but we need to look for things we have a common--starting with the love of shooting.

Waimea I owned 3 of the 4 and shot all of them. Bottom line-I greatly prefer the SKB. Well made, reliable, easy to handle. See if you can get Fast Eddie to fix one up for you.
