Problems with Trail Boss's consistency?
Sixgun Seamus replied to Charlie Harley, #14153's topic in SASS Wire
I loaded TB in various calibers on a Hornady Lock n Load. I had to use the big drum in the powder measure to get consistent loads. The small drum would bridge the powder. Use some sort of powder cop to check your loads during your loading process. I highly recommend the RCBS Lockout die. High or low charges will stop your press. -
In the brief couple years that I've known him, I'm proud to have called Major a friend. He carried the torch to promote Classic Cowboy. He always wore a smile. He will be greatly missed. Condolences to his family.

Here's hoping that's the new logo.

Landrun site, has it already crashed???
Sixgun Seamus replied to WymoreWrangler SASS 46187L's topic in SASS Wire
I registered two people and paid by credit card. I was online a total of maybe 5 minutes max and I am the world's slowest typist. Their registration procedure is just fine. -

Sixgun Seamus replied to WymoreWrangler SASS 46187L's topic in SASS Wire
I can't say that this actually happened but I was trying to get on the website starting ten minutes before one. When the clock hit one and I couldn't get on, so I immediately checked the Wire and saw Okie's post with the link. I clicked on it and was immediately connected with the registration site. I was registered, paid and off in less than 5 minutes. I kind of thought that they might have temporarily shut down their website and directed people to the link. No one said that they had trouble with that link. This is 100% speculation on my part. YMMV -

PSA - Ruger New Vaquero 7 1/2" Barrel 357
Sixgun Seamus replied to Bingo Montana's topic in SASS Wire
On the 8th day, God and Sam Colt both said "Let all barrels be 7 1/2 inches or longer". -
No, it's 1.5 kernels of powder, not 1.5 gr. of powder.

I was loading 5.4 gr Titegroup and when discussing loads at a shoot, a fellow cowboy said he was using 4.7 with sucess. I dropped mine down to that for about a year now with no problems. I have a good supply of Red Dot but I'm kinda saving it while I can get Titegroup easily. I'm using a 200 gr bullets both coated and regular.

Most schools called off school today. We live about 50 miles south of Rye. We didn't have that much snow but wind drifted it over the back roads so no school. Went this morning to sheriff's office to renew our Ohio CHL. Watching two grandkids and staying warm. Probably should go downstairs and get to loading ammo.

Bigger than a buffalo
Sixgun Seamus replied to Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I had an acquaintance years ago through Boy Scouting that was a big game hunter. He owned a local Chevrolet dealership which gave him the means to hunt on every continent. He invited myself and a couple friends to his house to see his trophy room. (WOW, but that is another story). In conversation, I asked what was the most dangerous game he had ever hunted. Without hesitation he said "Indian Gaur". I had never heard of one. He told us about his hunt for one and described them as "being pissed even when they are in a good mood". -
Here eagerly awaiting Santa Claus!

Ditto. This is what I use plus I added a couple diamond hones.

Roll crimping .45 Cowboy Special & Auto Rim
Sixgun Seamus replied to Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494's topic in SASS Wire
I use the Hornady 546554 die set as referenced by Cholla. It puts a perfect crimp on the C45S. I use a regular 45 Colt sizing die as the one included is a bit smaller and overworks the brass. -
I am blessed that all three of my kids and their families (6 grandkids ages 6 to 10) are all within 20 minutes from me. We usually get together with my sister, her two kids and their families on Christmas day. The location rotates through the family and we will be at my daughter's house this time. We go to my oldest son's house on Christmas Eve after our church service. Gifts are for the kids and grandkids. The Lord has been good to us and we have what we need. Last year we bought ourselves a S&W FPC 9mm. We haven't really decided what we'll get for ourselves this year. I want to surprise me. Mom has been gone 8 years now and Kay's Mom passed last year so we are officially the old folks. Merry Christmas to all and hope you are as blessed as we are.

I've been relading for 50 yrs. Prices have constantly gone up. Get used to it as they won't be coming down. When I started cowboy, I was paying $19/1000 for primers. Before covid I was paying $130/case for Federal LPP. The last ones I bought were $330/case. Prices are coming down a little around here. Here are the primers prices at a local powder distributor. Shop around and buy when you can.
