  1. Are you interested in selling the two extended Gold Rings separately?
  2. These are awesome. I took mine apart when I got it home to smooth out and polish some of the internals and just put it back together. It was already so smooth inside there was no room for improvement. It has been a real shooter for Wild Bunch.
  3. I had my ammo stored in a plastic bin in the back of the truck for EOT when it was held in Indiana. I had smokeless ammo for side matches and black powder ammo for the main match. It had rained several days before the match and my tonneau cover leaked funneling all the water into the ammo bin. all the ammo was sitting in about 3" of water. As luck would have it I live about an hour away so I went home and got new main match ammo. The wet ammo I took home and tried shooting it and all the samples of black powder ammo and shotgun ammo shot fine but the smokeless ammo was horrible. I ended up shooting all the black powder ammo at monthly matches without any problems but the smokeless ammo even after trying to dry them out in a case dryer for days were a no go. When I pulled the bullets some of them actually had water pour out of them.
  4. What else could you call a 1955 sweep other than a 5519 or a 5591 sweep? I like it, sometimes ya just get tired on a Nevada Sweep.
  5. THe SASS Web site lists all SASS affiliated clubs, under the Club listing it has the Territorial Governor and the Match Director listed. So yours would be The Arizona Ranger for Memphis Gunslingers.
  6. I guess they should use thick finger cots to make up the difference.
  7. I use the Hornady die set that has more adjustment flexibility. Especially in the .44/40 rounds. Using this die I can seat and crimp at the same time. (the die on the left is the seating/crimp die.) https://ads.midwayusa.com/product/1011098266?pid=797875&utm_medium=shopping&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Reloading+-+Metallic+Reloading+Equipment&utm_content=797875&srsltid=AfmBOooTbTezn8BeYekxoANrsZT-6HurGniicVD83s3g6chWORdNuYBKm2M
  8. You'll probably need to get a expander/powder funnel for the 44 magnum to load .429 bullets. It'll make life allot easier. Or flair the case more. Maybe Dillon would just sell you the expander/funnel separately out of the kit.
  9. ^^^ What he said. A picture would be of help.
  10. When I started loading I used a Lyman T-Mag mounted to a homemade mount that I clamped to the kitchen table. The Mec Jr. was mounted to an old Formica sink cut-out clamped to the kitchen table as well. (Loaded many a trap round this way). Both were long before Cowboy shooting. I still use both presses, (as well as some progressive ones) except they are mounted to benches now. I also have the same Lee Hand Load Kit in .44 Mag/Spl. but I've never tried it. The video was informative. I may have to dig it out and load 1 or 2 rounds.
  11. What he said. ^^^^ T.O.'s really don't want to be standing beside a shooter with an out of battery either.
  12. I had the same problem with one of the wife's SASS models. You've had yours apart already so this is not likely or you would have corrected it. One was full of strings from a buffing wheel.
  13. Bullets by Scarlett. She has smokeless and black powder in 45's and 38's. https://bulletsbyscarlett.live-website.com/shop/Cowboy-Cartridges-c155201256
