Cast Bullets in Arizona??????? What happened to AZ?
Scarlett replied to V-Twin Slim's topic in SASS Wire
I count myself as a local SASS Vendor. I don’t go to anything but SASS matches, am a SASS Affiliated Merchant and set up at EOT. I cast myself for 5 years. I loved it. It was the hardest work I ever did in my life. I couldn’t keep up - so I partnered with Acme. I needed their economy of scale and capacity. It’s a hard way to earn a living… I appreciate the fact you’re trying to support your local vendors… Hugs! Scarlett -
I have a Marlin 32 HR that I love! It was my main match rifle for a long time. Once I started shooting FC all the time, I went to a 73. They are out there - you’re gonna have to pay. I had two that my husband found NIB. @Widder, SASS #59054 did the work on them. It’s a great rifle! Good luck! Scarlett

They aren’t on my website yet… I’ll add them when I get them at Land Run! Hugs! Scarlett

@General Ledgeryou said that wrong, you should have said, “ I don’t shoot BP YET!” 😉😘😂 Hugs and SMOKE!! Scarlett

@Scarlett to confirm, do not go by what I say. I shoot APP all the time. I load with my 650 so I use weight and not cc volume. APP does NOT require compression or filler. I don’t have time to mess with filler - though lots of my customers swear by it. I use more than necessary because it’s FUN. The minimum is really about 8.5 grains by WEIGHT in 38 Special case. I load about 13gr by WEIGHT. I shoot a monthly and don’t do anything to my guns during the 6 stages. If it’s super humid? I might spray my Single Sixes with some Ballistol but that’s it. @dal sackett, I’ll see you in Louisiana! We can brainstorm/troubleshoot the issues if they keep occurring. Great big hugs! Scarlett

I have found that, as @Griff said, I have to have something with protein for breakfast. I also discovered a long time ago that being hydrated to the point that I have to use the restroom at least once during a 6 stage match helps me to shoot better. The posse also helps (or hurts). It’s like when I played sports - if I was playing tennis with someone better than I, I played “up”. If I’m shooting on a posse with new shooters, that I’m helping … or watching over, I’m distracted but that kind is ok. Sometimes there are people who aren’t the safest. They are safe - baseline - but still make me uneasy… that is distracting… Don’t worry - I speak up about safety issues - but feeling like I’m the only one on the posse watching out can be exhausting. Hugs! Scarlett

The Hornady One Shot Gun Cleaner & Lube that @Oklahoma Dee mentioned is really good. I bought it by accident - meant to get the case lube. Couldn’t return it so I used it and love it. I’m now selling it! FWIW, you won’t have these issues if you switch to Frontier Cartridge! 😉😘😂. A couple of squirts of the windex or PAM (peroxide alcohol Murphy’s oil soap in equal parts which I use) and a couple of patches and SHINY! Especially if you use fiber wads! Good luck! Hugs! Scarlett

I’m THRILLED to get to shoot with you!! It’s gonna be a great time!! We are gonna have so much fun! Hugs! Scarlett

I bought one of @Ruby Red Rider buckle displays for my pretty buckles! There are a lot of just “pot metal” ones that seems to be reproducing. I recycle all my split/ruined etc brass and spent primers (keep shotshell and pistol separate) and wanted to take some of the “pot metal” buckles. Tommy would have none of it! He was funny. I think I’ll recycle them now that I have a display board for my special/pretty ones! Hugs! Scarlett

I LOVE shooting with young people!! Finally, after a bunch of years sponsoring the Jr WB shooters (Chicken George & Quick Chick’s kids and a couple of others) I get to shoot the cowboy match with them at Land Run! Hoping I bring my A game because the whole family are great shooters and I don’t want to embarrass myself TOO bad! 😉 Big hugs! Scarlett

my website is BACK UP and RUNNING!! Thank you, Wynonna Earp!!! Hugs! Scarlett

Sometimes you just got to laugh at yourself
Scarlett replied to Dream Chaser, SASS #79316's topic in SASS Wire
Bless your heart! That’s funny! what are my funny moments? There are a LOT… when I was pretty new, had to clear a star with rifle and pistols (it was moving toward me on a track). Got the last two plates with pistol and MISSED THE BADT (big ass dump target) with last two rounds. IMG_0003.mov had a little fit. It was comic relief for the posse. -
@Chantry - you WILL BE AT HELUVA RUCKUS! That’s it! I have a big ass umbrella and some good Rugged Gear Heavy Duty Cart Rain Covers IN CASE of bad weather!! We begin our journey tomorrow (have a supplier stop to make) and will arrive Thursday to set up. I get where you’re coming from. I have to go to shoots I’m registered for because I have orders my customers need… I don’t have to SHOOT if the weather is really bad. Seriously, you have to decide for yourself. If you’re not there, I wi be SAD! Not MAD, though. So there’s that! Hoping to see you! Travel safely if you decide to come. Hugs and happy thoughts! Scarlett

Yes!! Cannelure goes in recycle bin, too. Because I shoot a 38 rifle and 32 HR pistols.

@StoneyMike I responded yesterday - just resent it in case it got lost in SPAM land. I’ll be glad to send a case home with whomever you designate! The email contained options for how to pay. Whatever is convenient for YOU!! Hugs! Scarlett
-
I will have something for you THIS EVENING! I promise I’m not ignoring you! Depends on how much it’s gonna cost to get my website back! 🤣🤣. Seriously, I appreciate your inquiry and I’ll send you something this evening. Hugs! Scarlett
-
I put nickel in the recycle bin when I get it with my brass. It’s prone to splitting - don’t know why - know some who only shoot it in their pistols. Hugs! Scarlett
-
All of the bullets I cast and the ones I currently sell are beveled base bullets. Hugs! Scarlett

WTC Rifle and pistol targets seperation
Scarlett replied to Marshal Dan Troop 70448's topic in SASS Wire
While I’m not @PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L, you have told me you’d trust me with your infant son in your absence… so I think you trust me. because there are targets that are SHARED by rifle and pistol, it’s a P only. It’d be just like shooting the correct targets (if there were separate arrays for R and Pistol) with the correct guns BUT shooting the pistols when the rifle should have been first. The targets were hit however, not in the correct gun order. at the BP match this past weekend, a shooter shot the rifle targets with his pistol and the pistol targets with his rifle. ONE target was a COMMON R/P TARGET So he only got misses for the shots that weren’t on the common target. Kiss that sweet baby for me and tell him Scarlett loves him! Hugs! Scarlett -
I got one of these and HATED it! I bought a 17mm (I think) circle punch that crafters use. It cuts Federal 100ct primer cardboard, cereal boxes etc super easy. Guess I’ll have to get some white cardstock and a 💋💄 stamp now! Hugs! Scarlett
-
So glad your son is recovering!! You’ve been on our minds and in our hearts! Hugs! Scarlett

….and that’s how the gunfight started. Hugs! Scarlett

There’s a FABULOUS app that I use to find random fun things to see and do wherever we happen to be http://Roadside America.com We’ve seen a Fork in the road. A Giant Yellow Rocking Chair off 31 in Indiana. Monolith… Wild Bill Hickock’s Birthplace the largest box of Popcorn at a popcorn store that also sold chocolate covered bacon! It rates the places by water towers not stars. You get one region of the country for free. You can buy the whole country or additional regions… it’s not much! I rate the app 5 Water towers! Hugs!
