Grizzly Dave Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 LOL I reckon a few dead horses have been kicked into smithereens. Some newbies, to which I say howdy and welcome to the fire. And some old friends, to whom I say howdy and hope I see you at EOT. And to them what don't know who I am, well, no matter, I don't know you neither!

Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) I hope to see you at EOT, GD. Regarding the Wire, we have a new version of the software for the Wire. It is running pretty well now. Some long time contributors like Allie Mo have passed on. There have been useful discussions on proposed rule changes like Junior Gunfighters and changing the black powder smoke standard. The moderators are doing a good job defending the Wire against trolls and spammers. Last year many posted information on where to buy scarce reloading supplies. EOT and the national championship are doing well at their new locations. I hope your mobility improved and look forward to new videos from you.

Grizzly Dave Posted January 25 Author Share Posted January 25 Thanks for the warm welcome back. I spent a couple years caring for my aging mom before she passed in August of 2021. Then spent a year clearing out her house that was full of her 'treasures' and finally got it empty and sold last year. Also last year I got laid off of my job of 35 years and spent a few months looking for work before deciding I'd just call it retirement. Several mentioned the weight loss from a number of years ago before my knee replacement. And as is common with rapid weight loss, it often comes back and did so. Now I'm back on the way down, but at a more sustainable pace. Grizz 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tucker McNeely Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 You can leave the loading table with your rifle cocked. But if you self declare before you are no longer touching the rifle, then you can point it down range to verify no round in the chamber by pulling the trigger. No boom = no call. If a round is in the chamber (boom),then stage SDQ. If you release the rifle, then SDQ for breaking the traveling rule with a cocked firearm (see SG ruling also, both long guns) + MDQ for progressive safety penalty for unsafe gun handling by not having control of a cocked firearm. Other than that, things are fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly Dave Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 (edited) My major question right now is the age old question of 38 or 45 for EOT. For me, 38s are stock, but quite broke in, and 45s have had the Longhunter treatment. Speed wise, maybe my 38s are faster? Maybe. Rifles are both Longhunters. Part of my brain says which am I willing to do lost brass for? But truth of that question is if you are really worried about that, you can't afford the rest of what it costs to shoot the match. Right now I'm leaning towards the 45s, I like big boolits and I can not lie! I'm more confident to where my pistols hit with the 45s. Not that I've shot more than a couple of times in the last years. And if I finish something other than last in my category it will be a miracle. One thing is for sure and for certain, I'm gonna have fun. And talk all you want about fast, to me it comes down to fun and the people. Edited January 27 by Grizzly Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
