    We plan on that maybe this next Saturday! In the meantime, what do you like?


    Revolvers:.357  Ruger New Vaqueros (short stroked) or Pietta 1873s. Won’t buy another Uberti revolver until they get rid of the idiotic retractable firing pin. This year year I’m shooting Frontiersman so 5.5” Pietta 1860s(Navy grips) I’ve slicked up.
     

    Rifles: Uberti 73s or 66s - 38 spl

     

    Shotgun: SKB Double.

  2. Welcome!


    Don’t buy a Henry Big Boy and don’t start out with percussion revolvers. 
     

    Get yourself to a match and y’all try some guns and figure out what you want yourself to.

  3. I don't think I've ever gotten a package from UPS on a Sunday, Saturday either for that matter. 

     

    To answer your.actual question though, I think it should mean a day earlier than the original dat. Bottom line is they have no idea so your package will likely arrive Tuesday or Wednesday.

  4. What powder are using that is leading up your revolver barrels? Or are you using really soft lead bullets?

     

    I’ve only experienced leading once in 14 years of playing this game and it was using black powder and super soft lead(brinell was 7 or 8 best I remember).

    I think I have one in the back of the cabinet that I don't use. I'll look tonight when I get home.

     

    You shooting 1860's, ROAs, or 58s?


    Thanks! 

    1860 Piettas with Navy grips and fluted cylinders and/or 1851 Piettas.

  6. Welp, at some point on the way home from SC State last Sunday the tailgate on my truck fell and my ammo crate with my cylinder loading stands in it is now missing so I thought I’d check and see if anyone had a Powder Inc. loading stand or better yet a Tower of Power they’d be willing to part with?

     

    Powder Inc. is out of stock and of course the ToP has been out of production for quite a while; need it to work with .44 revolver cylinders.

    So I thought about, instead of buttering the bread and putting the buttered bread on the dry pan, put a lump of butter in the pan and let it melt down and then fry the grilled cheese in the butter that's in the pan.

     

    I have not done this yet, but I've been thinking about it.


    That’s how granny always fixed grilled cheese sandwiches when I was growing up and how I fix them now. So tasty!

    Rooster, I was under the impression that the slixshots with the appropriate threading would also be too big for CCI #10’s. Have I got that wrong? 


    I don’t think CCI #10s will fit Slixx Nipples; per they’re web site the following will fit them:

     

    • Remington #10
    • CCI #11
    • Winchester #11
    • RWS 1075

    I keep seeing the same recommendations for older powders that are virtually impossible to find any more. So, one modifier, 

    Is there any commonly available powder that is an all around powder other than TB that works well for our game?


    well you’re modifier probably needs to also specify Smokeless; because Black Powder is readily available and works great in all guns!

  10. My favorite combo is a straight stock and a 18.5” half octagon barrel, with a Cowboys & Indians 5th gen short stroke. 
     

    2nd choice would be a straight stock, 20” barrel, again with a C&I 5th gen.

     

    of the two choices you provided I’d have to take #2, because I cannot operate a pistol grip rifle. No idea why not, just can’t.

    Cindy Lauper plays dulcimer. She did a Blues album and played it with a slide!

     

    STUNNING!!


    My friend and banjo (clawhammer) teacher has a resonator dulcimer, sounds amazing! She’s supposed to show me some more dulcimer stuff when I’m down in April.

    Wouldn't you know!  We're now up to 57 and only need one more Frontier Cartridge to fill that category.  

     

    Where are the smoky shooters and the ones who don't know what sights are for?


    sights? What is this word of which you speak?
