Looks like we will be doing Sept 26th this year for any of you all that are interested.

That is very nice! That is a very handy very useful set up!

I hope matrix has improved their work. I had an extremely bad experience a few years ago. I would say one should do their due diligence before sending a rifle to them. This is just my opinion based on my experience. Your mileage may vary.

:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: you are correct! That was not my intended point of impact! That was several years ago with the 357. Shot was about 40yds. I killed one last year out of a box blind with the redhawk at about 20yds and the shot was spot on where I was aiming. It is amazing how easy it...

Working on both rested and offhand. A lot of rested shooting at the moment standing off a set of shooting sticks. I have been concentrating most of the practice on grouping at 15 and 25yds just trying to get consistent with the trigger squeeze. I have done a bit of shootong off the sticks out...

Here is the most recent update on the handgun hunting journey. I started with the Ruger Blackhawk 7.5" in 45 colt. I have put a few hundred rounds through it and my accuracy is improving for sure. I have expanded the collection to a 22lr single six, and a Blackhawk in 357, 45, and a super...

Considering a second West KY big bore rifle shoot. We had one in Oct of 2024 and a good time was had by all. Looking at possibly the 26th of Sept or the 17th of Oct. I would be interested in any input or suggestions from those that attended the last shoot or are interested in attending this...

Looking at possibly doing a repeat of the Double Rifle shoot this fall if any of you all are interested. Possible dates are Sept 26th or Oct 17th. I will start a new thread. Not 100% sure yet but we are discussing it and I would like to know the level of interest.

Thanks man. Let me know if you find one, if.not might try the 2x

Looking for a 2.5-8 but will also consider straight 4x. Would be interested in doing some trading if possible. I have a pretty large assortment of reloading components and gun parts.

I have a bunch of longshot. I use it for 20 gauge loads. I will give it a go!

I work at a paper mill and we supply paper to the company that makes those targets, so when they have some seconds we get free targets by the pallet full. Ha ha. I will definitely get some better targets for serious practice sessions. The ones with all the dots are pretty handy though for...

I'm interested in the answer to this as well. The 44 loaded hot in the large from revolvers like the FA or the redhawk and suck is a pretty potent rig. Buffalo bore has a 340 grain had cast at 1400fps. That is a lot of penetrating power!

That's probably a good idea. I have a 22wmr revolver and a full sized 357 that I could run 38's through, or work up a powder puff 357 load to warm up with. I used to shoot a lot of long range type stuff and I'm really enjoying starting from scratch in a new discipline so to speak. I think it...

I am really liking the single action. That was my first go with one of those and I can definitely see what the alure is. I have everything set up to start producing some reloads so hopefully I can work up a load that the pistol likes and we will see what happens. Once I feel like I have a pretty...
