  1. I just won an ultrasonic cleaner at our club annual… the Lyman solution is awesome but was wondering if anyone was using ballistol and water as a cleaning solution… does the moose milk leave the emulsified ballistol behind when the water dries up?… kinda like a little layer of lube in all the internals? Ballistol and alcohol?
  2. @Cowtown Scout, SASS #53540 L ..and we’re excited and honored that you’ll be shooting with us at our annual “The Gunfight at Gamble Gulch” in George West TX, home to the Texas Riviera Pistoleros in just a few weeks! … this is only our 4th annual match but with all the support we get from our Central Texas (CenTex) sister clubs and friends it will be the most well attended match yet! We cant wait to get the party started!!
  3. Thanks again for the offer of lending me your back up ‘58 Remington to try and finish the plainsman match! I’m looking forward to shooting plainsman with you again next year.
  4. @Dream Chaser, SASS #79316 Congratulations Champ!
  5. My cart is neither a two gun nor a four gun cart… its a three gun . My good pal, @Mickey Blackwater, made me a wooden rack to fit 4 guns that I like to use at larger multiple day matches to tote around a set of back up long guns… usually three slots is one too many and goes unused.
  6. We have been using Dewalt in South Texas at Gamble Gulch… home of the Texas Riviera Pistoleros… may have been due to sharing batteries with club member’s cordless tool.. may have been brand loyalty… maybe low price cost leader?… we kinda assign them to posses to tote around stage to stage during hot days.
  7. For our Annual match (about 70 shooters) we use a simple Google form (free with a Google account). The “form” imports to a Google sheet to store all the data. Then use a free “extension” for google sheets called autocrat to mail merge a response form set to immediately send registration confirmation with info where to mail check…. have not set up electronic payment and dont think we will as this is working well. we use PS only for scoring. I use CAS in a smaller club and that also works well.
  8. That sounds reasonable… plus shipping… i know i wouldn’t let mine go for less than 800 … on second thought i like it too much and I have no need to sell it so maybe not even for $1,500… then again i bought it from a friend tuned by Texas Gunslinger for $400… so i guess my guesses are all over the place when it comes to value
  9. Yup bp is a whole other reason
  10. The only two reasons to reload shotshell in my opinion are pure luxury. first you have the luxury of making shotshells as you need them, as many as you need. secondly you have the luxury of loading a shell to your liking, with your preferred amount of recoil, your preferred amount of shot in your preferred shell… I started shooting low recoil low noise off the shelf Win AA’s… now i reload my shells slightly lighter for monthly club shoots and learned the hard way to shoot off the shelf for big matches! Just one less variable that can go wrong.
  11. I’ve shot in 7 states… and 6 of those states are all in TEXAS ..plus 1 outside of Texas, Land Run last year in OK. … longest road trip for a Texas match from the Rio Grande Valley to Fort Parker ~900+ round trip! I’d venture to say thats at least several states worth of travel alone!
  12. Say!…. remember to keep a few of the thousands and thousands of primers you’ve been selling off to reload your own!
  13. I had that issue when i first got my 750… I had set the shell plate a little too high (loose) and so would rock or wobble on the upstroke… I’m more careful now during caliber conversions.
  14. Agreed! The OP’s gun would make a nice BBQ gun. some would say pimp gun…
  15. Could you, might you of shot with Alsey Miller at the renowned Gunfight at Gamble Gulch?!
