I discovered how to knock off 4-5 seconds a stage for you BP shooters!!

 

GO SMOKELESS!!!!! :P:P

 

Trust me it works! :lol:

Posted

In that case I highly recommend you don't shoot after me or my son at Hard Times, we make enough smoke to obscure the targets for a couple shooters after us. :P

Might be why it caught on in the rest of the world. :)

Like so many other things, I DON'T CARE how the rest of the world does anything unless it endangers my safety, finances, or peace of mind.

I shoot BP at the same speed as smokeless. I just have more misses than a college sorority when shooting BP. This slowing down to see the targets thing is over-rated.

Yeah, Rye, you can see them targets but geez, you missed a lot though. :P:P:lol::lol: At least with BP you hit them more. ;):lol:

Howdy

 

Couldn't care less about knocking off 4-5 seconds per stage. I'm there to shoot, make a lot of smoke, and yuk it up with my pards. Couldn't care less how fast I shoot.

Posted

I like to make smoke and make concussive shockwaves that thump people in their chests and cause the ground to shake like an earthquake

I had 4 misses how many did you have?? :wacko:

I love it when the three spotters ask, did he hit anything, second guy chimes in, did he miss anything? What bothers me most is the third guy who wants to go the easy route and just call an over the berm and be done with me for the day! :o:huh:<_<

Knockin' 4-5 seconds of my stage times would shorten the amount of time I'm shootin'... It's sometimes hard to explain to folks when I shoot a 40 second stage... I figure my internal clock is runnin' a lil' fast! I've pretty much mastered speedin' the pace up as a shooting string progresses... now, I'm workin' on startin' fast and slowin' down during a string.. all with the intent of keeping overall stage times consistent. Goin' fast; a sure way to win... but wouldn't that lessen the fun I'm supposed to have?

 

Jes' yankin' yer chain Phantom!!! :ph34r::P

You will be missed my friend!!!

 

The bp world is a tick less now!!

 

Glad yer still in the game!!

 

Yer smokey pard furball!!

Good for you Rye. Glad you are enjoying your change. I am sure you will go back to a BP eventually because the moral outcry from your fellow BP shooters will be more than you can bear. I remember when I switched from 250 gr. bullets to 200gr. bullets I was treated like I had just urinated on John Wayne's grave. It always amazes me how so many think that having fun and shooting slowly is mutually exclusive. Me I shoot with anybody and everybody and don't judge a person by their score or how they choose to play the game as long as it's by the rules.

Thanks for the back-up Duece, it's funny after 6 or 7 yrs. of shooting all BP all the time I got kinda tired of the routine. It's now easier for me to go to 4 shoots a month and the benefit is I'm enjoying the little bit faster times. If you "soot lords" out there like yer BP that's fine I hear ya but I'm like a little kid who's found something new! ;) Next shooter!

Thanks for alerting me to that, I never even thought about it. I'll change it now! ;)

I've let this blasphemy continue long enough :excl: Rye has soiled his nest and abandoned his heritage. I vote string him up :P Never mind he's a good guy and a pretty good shooter. Never mind he is having fun and working less.

 

Actually, it's always fun to rib him once in a while, now we just have a different reason. When he was shooting BP he had a distinct advantage ... smoke rises ;)

 

Hope to shoot with you again, Pard - BP or that newfangled smokeless, don't matter.

 

Shoot straight - have fun :D

I'd love to, but it will be next year. We are having our final St Jude's Charity match that weekend and expecting to send them one last pile of cash from the dedicated cowpokes who have helped make this so successful for the last 16 years.

At my last shoot one of the my Cowboy Pards was making more BOOM and SMOKE than I was.

I don't know how I can put anymore BP into a 45 colt cartridge than I do.

Can I compress it more and maybe fit in a grain or two more?

Just how much can you compress BP?
