Why was the Swordfish too slow to shoot down easily?
Michigan Slim replied to Chantry's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I read To War in a Stringbag in high school. Good history on the plane and pilots. -

I would rather have a keg of Red Dot than TRAIL BOSS but it filled a niche very well.
-
Glad to hear it.
-
I use Unique as well. I have about four pounds left. Out of TRAIL BOSS. I switched to W244 for most of my loading. Took me some trial and error to make a shotshells load but I really like it. Not great for my bigger cases though.
-
I gave it up for a while to work on my daughters new house, my house and cabin, and to fish with my bride. Might shoot my first match of the year next weekend. We,lol see. My ammo stash has been lasting well. Lol

Works very well in .38-55 and .45-70 for me.

Cold weather, 44 mags, 45 Colt? Crono your loads and see it? Big swings.
-
True. But if I load light like that with the wrong powder, ignition is wonky. You do need some volume appropriate for the case.
-
I liked it in my 44 and 45 cases. Filled them up nicely. TiteGroup does not. Unique workers well buy I save that for Kayas shotgun loads. 244 works well in 38 and I made a nice 12 gauge load with it as well. Not acceptable for my big cases though.

Great meme but that ain't a 33.

A Frightening Incident Prompts A Question
Michigan Slim replied to Calamity Kris's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Not for the squeamish. My camera helped the sheriff, a family knew what happened to a loved one, and a young ladies family knew how lucky she was to be with them. I ran to the young lady. I knew there was nothing anyone could do for the lady in the blue SUV. I AM A FAN OF HAVING CAMERAS! Every vehicle in our family got one from my son. Those in his business vehicles show six different angles. On second thought, I removed the video. Suffice it to say, it helped having it. I should never let my wife see how close I was to being in the wreck though. -
A Frightening Incident Prompts A Question
Michigan Slim replied to Calamity Kris's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I had my crews close roads rather than go one lane -because of BMW/AUDI/MERCEDES drivers. Screw them all. I stepped in front of a Mercedes speeding at us one time. Hit me you bastage. -
I've never shot a deer at night. I have misjudged legal shooting hours by just a bit, but never at night.

One of the stupider things I've heard today
Michigan Slim replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Saw the title and thought you were talking to yourself again. -
I may have done that on my boys truck. Lol. Blasting a texter in traffic was a hoot.

It's to help people get in touch with their inner self

If I had a .380 and reloaded for, I would get one. Cute little thing.

Have you ever taken your cowboy guns hunting?
Michigan Slim replied to Dapper Dave's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
My Sharps is a fine hunting gun. I need a larger aperture for my sight though. I also bought a Marlin 1895 that needs to kill something. -

Michigan Slim replied to Dapper Dave's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I started CAS with a Winchester 94 in .44 Mag so it could double as a hunting rifle. It is a FINE hunting gun. CAS was terrible. -
A state trooper saw lights by his buddy's gate. Knew his buddy was not there so he turned around. The puke had a chain from his truck to the gate when he took off. I was the only one to ID my stuff and press charges. I spoke at his sentencing about the violation of my fathers cabin and what it did to the kids. Judge asked if I wanted compensated. As I had already gotten most of my stuff back, I replied "No Sir. I just want him in JAIL!" He got 18 months at a bootcamp facility. He moved to the other side of the state when he got out. I left NO DOUBT as to how I felt.

Coming home from my Michigan cabin Sunday, I saw a lighted billboard that said all toll/fee texts are scams. it was an MDOT sign.
