  1. The 8 or so years I've been shooting SASS and using the wire, I've never clicked on the TEAM SASS forums.  Seems like a lot of good info there.  Might want to market/evangelize it a little more.  Surely, I'm not the only one that never really knew what it was about.

  2. I sure like Clays for SG loads, it's sure hard to find right now.  GMR had a 4 lb jug on their raffle table last weekend, but I guess I didn't stuff enough tickets in the bucket.  Someone got lucky!

     

    I have a jug of Clean Shot sitting on-deck in case I ever run out of Trail Boss or Clays before it's available again.

  3. Hyespeed,

     

    Not sure your shotgun budget or if you are looking for a single/double trigger, but Johnny Meadows has a couple Baikal's all slicked up and ready to race on Gun Broker. Right at the $550 mark. If that's in your budget, it would make a great scatter gun.

  4. I've got a few and want more. The waiting is the worst. I read somewhere that the silencer shop was offering refunds of the tax stamp if HPA is approved. Not sure if it was for a specific period of time or during their holiday sales.

     

    It's the wait that prevents me from getting more, not the $200 Tax Stamp. If they both go away, I may have to get another safe.

  5. HyeSpeed,

     

    I went through a few grips before I landed on the ones I have now. Like everything else, it's what 'feels' right in YOUR hands. I prefer a fatter grip with lots of checkering (grippy) vs. a smooth slick grip. The ones that come on the SASS set have very fine checkered so see how you like them when you shoot them. The set currently on my Rugers are from Altamont.

     

    As a contrast, my wife started with the Long Hunter SASS set. After a year, we sent them to Boomstick to half-cock and short Stroke since she started slip hammering. Now, we are sending them back to Boomstick to convert to Birdshead grip frames and she will switch to a slick pearl grip.

     

    It's all what feels right to YOU.

  6. Is anyone using these with real BP? Any problems with the lack of lube?

     

    I've emailed the folks at Badman bullets and asked this question. They said NO to real BP, but YES to subs. I have seen other folks say they use the Molycoated bullets with real BP, but I choose to use lead and big lube bullets when I venture into real BP matches.

  7. I was a huge fan of the Badman .38 in 127grn, but they don't seem to be making them any more. I have switched to Precision Bullets Gen 2 coating with no crimp/lube groove and couldn't be happier. Its been almost 2 years since I switched to coated bullets and I really like 'em. I only use standard lead when shooting real BP.

    Totes Magoats, I can't get any phone app to work for dry fire?? What app are you using I would love to have something that will work for dry fire.

     

    The timer won't register the shots when dry firing. I just use it as a par timer. for instance, I set it 6 seconds, hit start and try to get 4 shotgun shells, pulled, dry fired and shucked before it reaches zero and beeps.

  9. I have the Pact 3 timer. I like the hold then release to start for the button. The other I see around the local clubs are he pocket pro 2. Both are great and have a ton of features.

     

    For short dry fire sessions where par times are needed, I just use my iPhone and the free shot timer app.
