Indoor CAS in Niles, Ohio! Saturday November 9, 2024.
Sixgun Seamus replied to Slow Mo Dern's topic in SASS Wire
Come to the shoot. Bring eye and ear protection. Talk to the cowboys there. Ask questions. Look at the different types of firearms used. Ask more questions. Hang out with some of the finest and friendliest people you will meet. Just have fun observing. Be aware that shooting indoors doesn't give us the freedom to do normal things we do outside on a range. Ask questions. If you are 20 minutes from Niles from any direction, that puts you within an hour or so of a lot of Cowboy clubs in NE Ohio. Stop over and join us Saturday. Oh, don't forget to ask questions. We all started in this game at some point. -

They're easier to split when you use real calibers. (they start with 4) -
4WD and AWD with help you get moving faster because of increased traction. They generally won't stop you faster due to inertia causing loss of that traction. On ice, all bets are off. I get a morbid enjoyment from seeing people stuck in their shiny new SUV's because they don't understand those concepts. I've owned 4WD and AWD vehicles most of my driving life due to the fact that I live in NE Ohio and like to get up my driveway in winter.

And still going strong. Happy Birthday Rowdy, Blondie, Harry, Josey............and of course Will Munny.

AMEN, Bro!

Went to a live taping of his show way back when. Got to meet him and many of the cast. I got to sit at his desk and was in closing "club meeting" and said the man's pledge.

Wish we lived a tad closer. It'll be good to see all of you again in February.

Asking for Pro tips on WarTrace in June 6 - 8, 2025
Sixgun Seamus replied to T-Square's topic in SASS Wire
Another camping option is Barton Springs Campground part of the TVA. It's about 15-20 minutes from range and at least half a dozen cowboys camp there including myself. There is a permanent lake there. -

It's out in the middle of nowhere. There are two entrances, one for each parking lot. Either one is good. Great vendors on site and they have a food truck. Leave some extra time on each end of your trip to see local sights. Just be ready for great people and a great match. Make sure you eat at the Bell Buckle Cafe on one night. Plan on staying late Friday at the range for the best prize giveaway in all of cowboy. -
And when you're off chasing rabbits....... Loved the song!

Congratulations to Lassiter -- National Champion

Congratulations Lassiter. He is a friend to all and a wealth of knowledge. His help and advice when I was starting cowboy is one of the reasons that I am in SASS today. -

Unless they changed the instructions on the posse marshal walk-through, that would have earned him a "P". Instructions read, "Shotgun: From the middle, engage 2 targets then move to the north or south position and engage 2 targets." He moved first, shot two targets then moved back to middle and shot two.

Day 11 and power company not even half way done
Sixgun Seamus replied to Trigger Mike's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Ouch. Prayers with you to get past this mess asap. -
I for one, never have any misses. I will occasionally fire a warning shot beside the target.

I got to meet and talk briefly with him at an NRA Convention years ago. RIP.

Wow! My bullet supplier's cost difference between 125gr 38 and 200 gr 45 is only 2 cents. Powder difference is only 2 gr between 38 and 45 (my loads) so to me that is insignificant. Primers around here might vary by one penny and I really don't factor in brass because I have so much with very little loss. Just my view from the saddle.

And then some of us are about deaf to begin with then stick these rubber things in our ears.
