Blackwater 53393 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 These are “match within a match “ competitions. You qualify by shooting the guns and ammunition described for the category and you still shoot your SASS category too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Well, I just hope my Warthog .32's don't drown out you smoky folks party. Are you sure there's not some sort of "Itty Bity Bullets" category for those Warthog .32's to qualify for? How about the "Champeen of the Itty Bity Bullets". OR maybe... "Sultans of No-Smoke". OR, and this is the good one..... "King of Knat Pharts". (still laughing at the "King of Knat Pharts" idea..... ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
