A fitting poem for our shooting pard and friend: A Cowboy Psalm Dear God, only You know when I'll reach the end of my trail, So I want you to know I'm grateful. A hundred times I've been thrown by life And a hundred times You've lifted me back in the saddle. Every morning I see Your smile in the sunrise over the prairie And taste Your breath in the sage on the wind. You put the aches in my bones at sunset to remind me that I'm still alive, And the stars in the midnight sky to keep me humble. I know that You love me. When I've thirsted You've been my drink And Your words have been my bread. You catch me when I tangle my spurs, You keep me from taking the crooked path. You gave Your Son for my immortal soul. And I know, Lord, that when I am judged You won't care how long I stayed on– But how well I rode. ©Copyright2002 Boston John Doucette RIP my friend! TB

So sad, I always looked forward to shooting with him, he was always encouraging, a fierce competitor but never let the fun out of the game. I’ll always remember shooting EOT with him the last 2 years, happy for him he won his category. He shot clean this year, to win another World Championship! Rest in Peace my friend, there is a big hole in my heart today!

Marlin 38-55

Remington nor Ruger have not made this rifle in that caliber, it's a Marlin/Marlin. TB -
I have been using the Dillon powder check die for a few years now, nice peace of mind checking for low or overcharged cases. I had some difficulties a number of years ago when I switched from shooing classic cowboy to duelist and going from loading .44-40 to .38 and .357. Had a few squibs and at that point I added the powder check die. I have one on the tool head for .38 Special and one on the .357 tool head. Once they are adjusted tighten the locking nuts and they stay in adjustment. I also load for another fellow shooter occasionally and he uses a different powder. I have a Dillon powder measure set for him and another powder check rod set for his load. Works great! TB

Glad you and Kay are OK, cars & trucks can be replaced, hassle but you'll get through it. Say well my fiend, I'll let 40 Rod know. TB -

Standard manufacturing tour “ they do make a SAA “
Turquoise Bill, SASS #39118 replied to Buckshot Bob 's topic in SASS Wire
I used to live in CT, and owned many USFA guns, visited the USFA factory many times in the original Colt building as well as there final new factory. I believe it's true that Standard Manufacturing did buy most of the machinery from USFA. USFA built a replica of the Colt SAA, Standard Manufacturing is building replicas as well. The Standard SAA are equal to or even better than the ones that USFA build in the last years. BTW I was able to visit Colt's factory where they build SAA and was able to purchase a number of guns from the factory through a SASS shooter that worked in the Colt Custom shop. Quality Never Goes Out Of Style! TB -
If you visit Dear Lodge, be sure to visit the Montana State Prison store, great horse hair hat bands at a great price. Also visit Grant Coors ranch near by. TB
