    I Double cock, switch leads, and do all that I can to baffle the spotters.   Sometimes it actually works…..


    I’ve found adding Black Powder to this mix works even better…

    And, don’t forget to remove and clean under the handy dandy new extractors! The carbon build up gets under it and, over time, lifts the extractor and it can’t engage the fired case.  I have a handy dandy gadget for such. :D
     

    Glad you’re back in business. You remind me that I need to add one to my travel kit. 
     

    Glad you came to SC. 
     

    Hugs!

    Very handy tool! That reminds me I need to use it soon so I don’t have a repeat of TN State a couple years back when I bought said tool…

  3. I double cock when I draw them and then alternate cock after the first shot. I change leads and crossover as needed. 
     

    I figure out how I’ll shoot my rifle and shoot revolvers exactly the same way(unless the stage instructions are different for them).

     

     

  4. I’ve never slip hammered, but used to have a lot of Ruger-Go-Rounds.  Lots and I mean LOTS of practice fixed it for the most part; then I bought short stroked revolvers and fixed it completely…


    My problem back then I think was short thumbs and not getting the hammer pulled back far enough.

    I like Practiscore. Like anything else there is a learning curve. To me the biggest benefit is that it has real money supporting it. So there is long term support. All of the other scoring program's lifespan relies on 1 or two people to maintain. If they stop then the program dies.  Case in point A.C.E.S. Great program till the developer went onto other things.

     

    I'm just starting to explore the online side of Practiscore. It looks pretty good.


    Absolutely! 
     

    I’m hoping the North Alabama Regulators will go one step further and take payments as well. They  already use it for AL State and Southeast Regional and it’s pretty awesome that I can login and see who is on my posse AND change posse if I wanted too; plus scores are up pretty quickly as well!

    Thanks @Cypress Sun I used to really like that song. Pretty sure I have heard it at least 30,000 times. I am skipping watching the Eagles video. The song is trying to bore through my skull as it is. 
    A few years ago I had Hotel California boring into my skull for nearly 2 weeks. I just couldn’t get rid of it. I’ll pass on the Calypso version. ;)

     

    Ever since you mentioned hearing Hotel California continuously in your head after hearing it recently, it's happened to me! " On a dark desert highway..."

     

     

     

     


    Cool wind in my hair…

    I also would wonder how secure the club's website's payment method is. It is a PITA to straighten out a stolen card or card numbers.

     

    As I stated in my original post, I don't care if a club adds the online option (didn't say it but it's a good idea), just don't scrap the old check/mail option.


    As long as they’re using a processor and not saving credit card info it’s pretty secure.
     

    Myself I don’t like sending checks in the mail. If the wrong person gets that, there’s your checking account info which could be used to clean you out.

    Setting up a website is not a big problem, there’s usually someone in the club that could it or you pay someone to host it. The problem I see is paying the clubs online. CC, Venmo, PayPal etc. all extra charges and work for the clubs unless I’m wrong which I could be.:o

    You’re not wrong.

    i knew we had an older crowd here but we are dating ourselves to the point that we can no longer pretend to be young ....my wife was right -again -as usual , bunch of old farts playing cowboy and shooting guns , im OK with that if you are 


    Nope speak for yourself, I’m still a young 49…

     

     

    BUT, having been married for 28 years, I have learned that she’s right 99.836782183% of the time and to NEVER mention the .163217817% when she’s not right(NEVER EVER EVER EVER, say she’s wrong).

    Thank you for your thoughts. I don't have one of the new Ruger Marlins, and I'm not even remotely inclined to buy one until I know the answer as to whether or not they can be made to reliably run with 10 standard OAL .357's in the magazine tube. When I first started reading about the specs I was stunned that Ruger did not make the barrel and mag tube long enough to hold 10 rounds. One of the biggest markets for these rifles (CAS) may be shut out by this one decision. Hopefully someone will have the opportunity to see what can be done.


    A VAST majority of us shoot 38s NOT 357s so how would that shut us out?

       Stage instructions say, "begin at position 2 with hands on hat".

       The shooter gives you the line and has hands on hat with body bent over the first long gun to be fired at position 2. What is your next action?

     


    “Shooter standby”… Beeeeep!

  12. Should’ve stopped after the first one since he died in the book…

     

    But since they didn’t, they should’ve stopped after the second one because 3 sucked and I didn’t bother either rest, lol.
