DUPLICATE. PLEASE DELETE. Academy. CCI No, 300 Large Pistol Primers at $4.99 + tax per 100 ct boxes.

This afternoon I stopped by Academy Sports about 12:30 pm. They had some CCI No, 300 Large Pistol Primers at $4.99 + tax per 100 ct boxes. First I’ve seen in about 7 months. Bought some. If you are totally out, you can buy a few from me for what I paid.... $4.99 + tax per 100. No dealers or resellers please. Local pickup only. No shipping. Thanks. Just trying to help local SASS Cowboys who are running low. Thanks. P.S. I also have some CCI No. 350 MAGNUM Large Pistol Primers. Prefer to sell these first. May trade for Rifle Primers or Pistol Primers.

Academy Sports had some CCI No. 350 MAGNUM Large Pistol Primers this morning. If you live in the DFW Texas area and need some, please let me know. No dealers please. Just trying to help individual SASS shooters who have run out or are getting low on primers and are able to use MAGNUM primers. You can buy some for what I paid for them. $3.99 per 100, plus, tax.

Perhaps I can figure out how to share a picture. I’m not sure if they make a .454 Casul any more. At least I haven’t seen any new ones. This new Rossi 45 Colt seems so good that I’m thinking of selling my old Rossi 357 and buying a new Rossi 357. Maybe not. I always regret selling old guns. Thanks

I just received my Rossi R92C 45 Colt 20” Stainless Steel rifle. Very very good fit and finish. A lot better than my older Rossi 357. Super smooth action. At least for someone that is happy with a good stock gun. My old Rossi has to be handled firmly when cycling the lever. Haven’t taken it to the gun range yet, but I am super impressed so far. I appreciate all of your comments and assistance.

xtreme bullets only sells components. Bullets, brass, primers. Not loaded ammunition per their website. NOTE: I read the post again. He was referring to jacketed bullets only and not ammunition. My mistake. So, I guess you are correct. Thanks for the info.

I haven’t been able to find Extreme Bullets LLC on the internet. Extremebullets .com didn’t work. Must be xtremebullets. Com. They sell components... bullets, cases, primers, but not loaded ammunition. FYI DFW people... Academy Sports In Arlington TX had 7 boxes of 357 Sig FMJ flat point ammo this morning, plus 22 mag and A17 ammo.

Holy Smoke is right! WOW! You are quite an artist.

You guys are all way too funny! That’s why I love reading your comments. Great education with a little laughter. We sure need that now, don’t we? Amongst the laughter, Dusty’s comment reminded me of how much I miss Jim No Horse aka Alan Barbee, from Texas. He used to say “I shoot slow, so you don’t have to.”. Dusty, as the old school teacher used to say...”Be the best. Either the best of the bottom half or best of the top half. Just excel with what you’ve got.” Haha Well, it looks like everyone is out of 20” SS Rossi’s at the moment. Fun to look forward to something in the future, isn’t it? I did order some 45 Colt cases from Starline for my Ruger Redhawk 45acp/45 Colt...out of stock, but backordered. Thanks again.

Yes, one of each is always the best answer, isn’t it? This sport is really addictive. Glad I live in Texas. Deacon KC Thanks for the .452 info. That is what I’ll order when I load 45 Colt. I do have one non-sass 45LC/45acp that I can start with. .

Wow. Those are some powerful loads in the article. I think I’ll try the Cowboy loads to start. Haha My logical & practical side thinks 44 Mag. My emotional side thinks 45 Colt. I just love the big 45 Colt. Much “cooler” to me. Thanks for your insight.

July Smith, Thanks for the detailed response. Very helpful. I am not sure about the diameter of bullets for reloading 45 Colt. .451 .452 .454 ? Looks like .452 is the most commonly available. It seems .451 or .452 are used for 45acp. I’ve only used .451 from Hornady, Cimarron Bullets, Blue Bullets, and just ordered some from Bullets by Scarlett.

I know this has been discussed many many times and I’ve read as many posts as possible, but, I’d still like you opinion. Do you prefer a Rossi 92 in 45 Colt or 44 mag? Why? If you don’t own a Rossi, your thoughts on the 45 vs 44 would be appreciated anyway. I already own a 20” SS Rossi 92 in 38 spcl/357. I know that the 1873 or 1866 are the best for CASS and 38 is cheaper and more popular and 44-40 is best for black powder. I would need to buy revolvers for either the 45 or 44 caliber. I realize it is a Ford/Chevy or Ginger/Maryanne question. It would be for general fun, possibly used a little in SASS. It might never be used for hunting. I’ve just started reloading 38 spcl & 45acp. Comments about non-SASS and SASS bullets and powder would be appreciated. I don’t think I’d ever cast my own bullets, but things change. Your top two or three bullets for deer hunting or hog hunting would be interesting. Comments of why you like one caliber over the other would be valuable. Plus, any other related thing or story you think would add to the discussion. Thanks a bunch.
