Rolan Kraps, SASS # 24084 Life Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 In a word. No. I have never understood why it is acceptable to have a BP only shoot. If you had a "Smokeless Powder Only" match people would be howling. SMOKELESS LIVES MATTER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Skinner, SASS#60697 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 You got to be woke to the smoke, diggin' the choke, the pull of the yoke. It ain't broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'm some "hot fancy shooter", hell, I shoot an '87, but I at least like to hold out the possibility that I could win something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't run that infernal hygroscopic stuff in my nice guns, so no, I won't be there. In prior years, they had a "Smokeless" category but with no sub-categories. If you wanted to shoot the match with smokeless, you could, but everyone was in the same category no matter the shooting style or dress category, it was just "Smokeless". Personally, I thought it was a great way to get more shooters to attend the match. While I do not profess to know the reasons for it being dropped this year, I suspect there were complications associated with that configuration, possibly even complaints to the Match Director about someone's "Smokeyness", only to discover later that they were actually in the Smokeless Category. Or what do you do in the case where the Top Gun in a Black-Powder match is shooting Smokeless? Regardless, it will likely be another in a long line of excellent matches. Lil Feathers and I have attended everyone except the first as we didn't find out about it in time to adjust our personal schedules so we could attend. Looking forward to the move to January!

Besides, it provides a great excuse for those occasionally missed targets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
