DD,

I've been around but just not too verbose.

For a long while I was going to chuck it all in.

I came accross a severe manifestation of "little man syndrome" and went at it like a bull at a gate.

My partner ( Penny Cillin  , she is a nurse) just kept by me patiently and slowly encouraged me.

I'm back.

Next year I am comming over to the Billy Dixon, and whatever else I can.

Tomorrow going to look at campers and living quaters horse trailers. I'm trying to make up my mind which I would prefer, towing the bumper pull trailer I have now and getting a camper for the truck or getting the LQ horse trailer. I'm just looking right now, gonna have to save my pennies for awhile unless someone makes me a deal.

Sunday going to go to the range and try out some loads for the shotgun.

Last weekend we went to a mounted shoot. My trusty steed still in training shows improvement every time and I am very pleased with him. I had 1 miss all weekend  ;D

Sunday off to a shoot at Dakota Dan's club, and he always puts on a good one, and this time some stages will include big cal lever guns eg: 38-55/45-70 etc so should be a lot of fun. :D :D

Hey WJ, congratulations to your Mum and Dad and please pass that on to them from TT & LN. :) :)

Hey Scarlet, The horse trailer with LQ sounds the go but I suppose the Dollars and cents do make the difference, so join the club ::) ::)

How old is your horse and did you get him already broken in, I  mean for mounted shooting and sounds like he is settling in at that okay??

See ya ........TT. ;) ;)

Post by: Scarlet Angel on October 21, 2006, 09:31:39 AM
Hey T.T.

Buddy is 9. We've had him 3 yrs. and he was broke to ride and a great trail horse, but had no idea what he was getting himself into when he came to live with us. The lady we got him from is great but I suspect somewhere in his life he'd been mistreated. So our first obstical was trust. To see him today nobody would ever know and when I think about how far he's come I am very proud of him.

He is settling in great to the mounted shooting, we are taking it very slowly. He likes to go and be with the activities, charming folks out of their bottled water and treats along the way.

Besides saving my $ for the trailer I have a short bed truck (6.5 vs the 8) and I'm told the shorter bed cuts down on the manuverablilty of the Living Quaters trailer. But they are really nice. I'm also told that the LQ even with a 8 foot bed truck has more difficulty going places than a camper bumper pull trailer combo. I have a great bumper pull now but my husband and I are in discussion of what would last longer and be more sturdy..he's siding for the horse trailer. I've been talking to my pards who have them...most of which drive longer bed trucks.  :-\  So I'm considering everything I find out.

I was in TX last yr for the Houston Rodeo and they had a LQ trailer on display. Leather interior, cowboy decor...beautiful! The price $100,000.  :o  No I'm no looking at anything near that but if somebody wants to buy it for me I'll upgrade my truck  ;D The whole rig going down the rode would probably be as long as an 18 wheeler.  :D

Firstly yep a great day at Dakota's range and the big rifle stages are great fun Dakota, thanks for a top day and a nice lunch as well. :) :)

Hope the day for the folks went well Wallaby :) :)

Hi Scarlet, Buddy sounds like a great horse and seems he is a lucky one as well finding himself in a real good home.
Mmmm probably the more I think about it the Flatbed Camper and a tow trailer would be the way to go as you still have accomodation even when you are at say a normal shoot/holiday deal and can still pull a horse trailer when needed.
I can't understand people misstreating animals, I was involved in the Greyhound Racing thing for quite a time and I was at a mates place with greayhounds last Saturday, and he has one that seems to have been misstreated while away being broken in and boy is he a spooky dog.
 It took me a long time to gain even a little bit of trust by this dog then I turned my back on him and he was off and back in his kennell.   I don't think my mate will ever get him right as you only have 2/3 years of racing life with them , but we'll see.
Good luck with Buddy :) :)

Regards.......Texas Tall. ;) ;)

Some tidy up jobs around the house on Saturday, easy day Sunday then going to a BBQ on Sunday night. :) :)
We have had a series on National TV called OPERATUNITY and was for budding opera singers to get selected to have a stint with the 'Aust. Opera Company' and though I'm no opera buff it has been very good.
Laura Norder's old boss is hosting a BBQ for the finalists and we have been invited so should be a fun night.
His home overlooks Sydney Harbour and has a spectacular view. :) :)

See ya................Texas Tall ;) ;)

Last night I made rat cupcakes.... :o  I know I know some of ya are thinkin' well if she wasn't out horse trailer shopping the poor girl wouldn't have to make cupcakes from rats  ;)

It's not like that t'all....It's coming up on one of my favorite holidays. We have a potluck at work and I found this receipe (bet they don't have it on cosies) for rat cupcakes.

You take a plastic rat and form tinfoil around it...remove plastic rat and fill foil with batter. Bake then add eyes..I used cinnamin candy (red eyes) and licorice for tail..the receipe called for filling it with red icing...I'm not big on biteing into a glob of icing so I made vinalla pudding and added red food dye...got a big syringe and needle and pumped the rat full of pudding...what a tasty discussting looking treat  ;D  I have deceided I need a bigger rat form though. LOL..

WoooooHoooooo Scarlet, I could damn near live in that trailer, it's beautiful 8) 8)
 As you said though just be carefull about places you have to get in and out with it, but I suppose there would be plenty of others with big trailers at these spots.

Glad you enjoyed the shoot, and do you mean Mounted or normal CAS shoot??. I thought you had been at it for some time, but it sure is a lot of fun and just the best people :) :)

Scarlet Angel, Logan builds a great trailer. I pulled a Logan stock trailer for several years it held up real well. I'm stuck working this weekend and watching the snow pile up. ::)

Great trailer, Scarlet Angel. Looks beautiful outside and inside. It's a real home. Today I've introduce a new member in my local shooting club. I've showed her my Colt SAA .45 with nitro and BP and my Lever Action .38 with nitro. She was enthusiast, shooting for the first time. Maybe a new CAS member in the future.
Title: Re: What are you doing this Weekend ?
Post by: Scarlet Angel on November 12, 2006, 10:27:04 AM
I've done alot of looking. And so far this Logan has everything in one package I want. Nice for people and horses...and yeah T.T. no doubt it could be lived in real comfortably. Still haven't made the comitment to purchase as it's pretty pricy for me. They have all kinds of stuff on the market now. If you have more $$ to part with you can get a slide out. A press of a button and you get 3 or 4 more feet in width once you get where you're going.

Still thinking on the camper too. At least I could get that in and out of the tighter places and I don't always take my horse...oh but the trailer was sooo nice :)

Kidd. I was real impressed with the features of the Logan and have heard it does have a very good reputation.

T.T. last weekend was a normal C.A.S. shoot for us. Been mounted for years, this was our 2nd ever regular. Our first time was with Tensleep about a year ago. Looks like I'm gonna be on the road alot between regular and mounted shooting.  ;D

Silent Joe sounds like you might have someone wanting to go to the CAS shoots with you real soon. Be a patient teacher and she will enjoy it I am sure. I saw a real ah...well we will say not so nice person at the regular range a few weeks ago. I was there with my dad & father in law. Dad was checking out his new Vaquero...this guy half a dozen benches down was trying to teach someone how to shoot. I won't repeat the things he said I'll just say he was not very nice nor was he patient with the new shooter. I told my dad when we got in the car I was sure glad he had never been that kind of teacher or rest assured I would not be shooting today. Dad was somewhat surprised as he didn't pay attention to what was going on down there but there are a few words that caught my attention which made me look. Dad says he doesn't think he was all that a great teacher. I told him he was patient and always answered my questions when I asked. And thanks to him I am a pretty decent shot today.

As we spoke of before Scarlet the flatbed/camper and horse trailer hook up sorta sounds the way I'd go as the camper can still be used whether going to CAS shoots or just a weekend away/holliday etc, but you're the one doing the deciding, so go with what suits you best. :)

Both sound good, Regards.............TT. ;) ;)

Shot the first day of a two day match (Rendezvous at Lost River) yesterday. Had twenty four shooters shoot five stages and it was a GORGEOUS day, good friends and good fun. Stump Watter was up to the challenge, then down for the count then back up.
(Jist watching that boy wears me out!)  ::)
BIG plans for today, 4 more stages, top gun shoot-off and awards, LOTS more FUN!!!

Sadly, the November monsoon hit at 0115 and cancelled the second day of the match, and Stump Watter's Champeenship dethroning was put on hold!  :(


(Never fear WJ, the plan is still in effect and I planted all the subliminal messages.) ;)

Angel, don't worry. I was an instructor by the Public Transport Cie of Amsterdam and have teached a lot of people for the busses and streetcars. Every man got his driverslicense. And that was work. Shooting is a hobby and I'm proud that someone will learn and asked me for that.
Yesterday she have used my lever action and she was hooked. Times will tell. Nice for you to have a Dad like yours. My Dad dyed in 1987 and I started shooting in 1988, but I know he had loved it to come with me. I'll keep you informed about my student.

Old age and treachery will over come youth and skill ay Tensleep  ;D

Joe, wow that must have taken nerves of steel to teach :). 

I have to admit I got a darn good one when they were handing out dads. Even my closest friends like to hang out with him. He taught me how to shoot smokeless and B.P.

He doesn't care much for cleaning up the B.P. rifle but is sure is fun to shoot and every now and then I get him to take it out. It's an old Hawkins muzzleloading rifle. One of the skills he also taught me that might impress folks here but I don't put it down on any resumes is I have been trained in the fine art of throwing a tamahawk.  ;D He used to belong to a mountain man reinacting group. 

My husband beat us both at the shoot. (wasn't hard to do in my case) but I think dad's gunnin' ta beat him next time. LOL...Like I said old age and treachery.  ;) We are all having a great time!

Tomorrow is the last day of my current employ.

My 'current' manager has only been with the group 3 months and is going on some long service leave, being replaced by another person and is having a farewell lunch after a meeting that starts in 5 min.

I have been with the group since inception (5 years) and supporting the 1 company for 17 yrs, 7 mnths and don't even get an invite.

The CAS experience has been one of the lights in my life and I cherish the friendships etc I have made in the last 10 yrs of being involved. We may take the micky out of each other, but we know it is all in good fun and can laugh about it.

What is happening today sticks in my craw and I will say that there is no sense of loss when I walk out the door tomoorow.

Sorry to put a damper on spirits today. Needed to let off a little steam. Thanks.

Regards

Hey Judge you don't have to appologise one bit, and a lot of these companies show not one bit of loyalty to staff, so stuff 'em. >:( >:(

Yes Mate you know some of my dramas from back in 2000 and this CAS thing and the people we meet and get involved with both at our clubs/shoots and on forums like this I think are TRUE BLUE PARDS :) :) and really got me going again, and still do. :D :D

I tried to call you at home last night but missed you so will call to-night or you can give me a call if you get time.
Enjoyed your company at N/tec as always.

Regards and take it easy Mate..........................TT. ;) ;)

Judge,

You look like another candidate for the battery business.

How much can you lift?
How much can you drink?



Title: Re: What are you doing this Weekend ?
Post by: Judge Lead on November 20, 2006, 07:21:22 PM
What sort of batteries. Wet, dry, gell spiral etc ??????.
As you may not remember, if it is alcohol based, I don't partake. If it's coffee, what sort and how much is available ???.

Depends on where and how much  ;D ($ wise) :o

and he now comes up with questions like that after I have spent $900.00 on batteries for the caravan. :-*

Poor ol' WW done pretty good for himself too.

He keeps me happy and when I'm happy I treat him purty decent. Trust me when I say he got some good stuff...He loves sears (where I shopped yesterday) I got him stuff he can use in public...then I got something I better not catch him showin in public. ;) 

I'll tell y'all what Dad done this weekend. Dad has been talking about wanting a 73 but figured he'd have to save for it. I think Santa must have visted his house early with a wad o cash cuz dad was at the gun store when it opened Sat morning and has purchased hisself a 73.  ::)

SOOOOOOOOO it ain't me who emptied the kitty.

Lez see...since this is a family forum ah I will try and be tackful.

He likes to watch WWE wrestling. (I really think it's for the girls but oh well) So while I was doing my Christmas shopping I happened upon some WWE undershorts in camouflage. They match his uniform well I might add.

So having the sort of off sense of humor that makes you all love me  :D I couldn't resist.

They are nice and soft with somewhat of a silky texture.

I gave them to him and told him when he watched WWE he had to wear so I was entertained too.  ;D  I told him he had to wear his dog tags too to complete the onsombal...but he said the military keeps those now and only gives them to him when he is deployed :(  Guess I'm gonna have to find some dog tags for my entertainment too.

So there ya go...was that to much info??

Yes Cammy those cars were a lot of fun but they managed to take a lot of drivers lives untill the advent of roll cages and a lot better safety gear.

The home of Midget Car racing was in the USA and was big time thru the 40's/50's/60's and was the starting place for many of your top Indy drivers.

The Vintage club here is quite strong and dig out and restore some of these old cars to their former glory as seen in these couple of photos, and they bring back a lot of memories for a lot of people both owners,drivers and fans. :)

See ya..........................TT. ;) ;)

TT had a good time on the week end, went and set up at our club for a shoot next weekend, had visitors arrive at home from interstate and TT falls up a step with a bottle of beer in hand that gets smashed ( The Bottle not TT) and opens up TT's hand and finger >:( >:(
But in typical Grey Sash Cowboy style TT wraps it up and gets on with the party :P :P :o

Hope it weren't yer shootin' hand TT, that would be terrible  :o

I started the day well with two fairly fast clean stages... then it went south in a rush.
Third stage I had to leave 4 SG targets standing because the shotgun wouldn't werk AT ALL!!!
(No Stump, it wasn't a 97.)
Dang thing werked perfect a minute later at the unloading table. ::) That was six misses...
missed one on the next stage, then 4 on the last 'Go fast' stage...

BUT in typical GSC style I smiled and kept on helping the young'uns  ;D

I'm gonna have to start with Report from the Weekend as sometimes I never know what trouble I will find.  ;D

Sighted in my rifle after having new peep sights put on it...Oh I am very pleased with the result. Now I will have no excuse when I miss targets  ::)

Went to my Nephews engagement party. His girl's family are very nice folks and we all couldn't be happier for the young couple.

Got back my shotgun that was in for a bit of repair.

Went and saw my friends colt who I have watched grow up. He was sent away to the trainers to learn manners and start under saddle so I have not seen him for a spell..Tuff is 2 and a half and very pretty. I will have to get pictures and show him off :)

And today going to check out a shotgun for my husband.

So we paid cash for this for him so he could come out and play with all the other cowboys and cowgirls.

Howdy T.T.

Yes, Buddy was the one that packed me down to the river. There is a bridge that the water runs across this time of year. About a foot or two deep. He likes to put his nose in it and splash it around between sips.

Saturday we will be going to a play and Sunday I am going to remind Buddy what the sound of gunfire is since he's had all winter off from shootin. We have a match in April and I don't want to wait til then. I doubt there will be any problems but better safe than sorry.

We do shoot on the hill just above his pen so he's used to the gunfire. Even stands steady at the sound of the shotgun. As does his stable mate who I been eyein over the years thinkin he might make a good mounted shooting pony too.

Work Friday  >:( Off Saturday & thinking of going to the local rifle range to put a few through my new model 95 marlin 45-70  ;) ;)

Then called into work on Sunday for the 75th Sydney Harbour Bridge Anniversary when they are closing the bridge so people can walk accross the bridge & the only way in & out of Sydney is by Rail  >:( >:( >:( This is an open invitation for any nut job that wants to make a name for themselves is it  ??? ???

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Take care, shoot straight & have fun.

Howdy T.T.

Yes, Buddy was the one that packed me down to the river. There is a bridge that the water runs across this time of year. About a foot or two deep. He likes to put his nose in it and splash it around between sips.

Saturday we will be going to a play and Sunday I am going to remind Buddy what the sound of gunfire is since he's had all winter off from shootin. We have a match in April and I don't want to wait til then. I doubt there will be any problems but better safe than sorry.

We do shoot on the hill just above his pen so he's used to the gunfire. Even stands steady at the sound



of the shotgun. As does his stable mate who I been eyein over the years thinkin he might make a good mounted shooting pony too.

Hey Scarlet, have fun but hows about a photo of Buddy on the forum ?? :) :)

See ya..........................TT ;) ;)

The Trans Tasman, or The Duel Downunder.........What a shoot !! :D :D

12 of some of the best scenarios you will find at a CAS match anywere, lots of shooting, lots of movement and most made you think a bit, but not designed to try and catch you for a PRO ::)
but guess who got one !!! :(

Hats off to the pards who set the whole thing up and I didn't hear a moan or a groan all shoot long and there is usualy plenty of those. >:(
" The plates are too far out/too small/ too big/ the dinner aint worth a damn...ETC ETC," no none of that. :)
There was a lot of rain for the days running up to the shoot causing headaches for the boys setting up and plenty Thursday & Friday nights but we managed to stay dry through the shoot.

The Saturday night dinner was awsome, and the setting just great.

I'll try and get some photos up in the next day or so but trying to get stuff tidied up and in order at home so be patient. :D

See ya...................................TT. ;) ;)

Tex some pictures here.

http://www.hootenoldtown.com/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=11



The way that it works is this.  You put 8 eggs down in a figure 8 with two in the center.  No double tapping those center eggs.  Start out sitting down with boots and socks on.  At the beep pull off boots and socks and proceed to run the figure 8 stomping the eggs.  They gotta break in order!  Winner is the one to break all eggs in the shortest amount of time.


Thing is that eggs don't really break that easy when you stomp on them.  They tend to squirt out in whatever direction that they wanna go in.  Especially when the grass is wet and even more so after there's a bunch od egg yolk on the wet grass.


It's one of the funniest things that I have ever seen.  I literally laughed until I cried!  :D

Quick update
Newtec shhot next weekend cancelled....more to follow

Dakota Dan and Yokel Kid still do have power available after 72 hours.Hugh storms in the area on Friday.Loads of damage,flooding and trees down.

They have already drank the contents of the beer fridge.
72 hours with no Foxtel, TV, Internet.and a brand new copy of series three of Deadwood. Desperation is setting in.

I am the envy of the street.....I have a generator and a recently acquired river frontage, it may soon be a deep water anchorage or an island.

Buy land now ..................................it's disappearing quick.

Keeping the pumps running and the powder dry.

Didnt work out the wayu things were planned.

Spent Friday evening in Auckland Hospital emergency dept.

Victim of a "hit and run".

Damm car thought he had more right to the space on the motorway that me and my bike were using.

Swerved into the gap, slammed on the brakes, I swerved to avoid him/her clipped the back left side of the car and slid down the road.

It was wet, cold, dark and rush hour so all i could see were the lights of the other vehicles bearing down on me.

Broken collarbone, bruising and such.

Bike has a cracked crankcase cover, broken clutch and a lot of scars.

Did have the mates around Saturday, we did watch the movies, we did drink the beer and rum as well as a bottle of mescal each. What a damm good pain killer.

Off work for a week or so. repairing the bike as it is my only transport.

Costing me about $1000NZ to fix the bike plus new helmet, gloves, jacket, over trousers and boots (all worn through by the tarmac).

Gotta go back to the hospital tonight as my closest cousin (Michael Moodie) at the age of 56 has been given 5-10 days left on this earth. The big C. I'm off to say goodbye and thank him for being my cuz.

Other than all the above, yes I do agree. ISNT LIFE GREAT

I may transport some dogs going from shelters to rescue homes on Saturday.  Gotta mow too.


Next week I may transport a dog from momma to my home.  I'm not getting excited about that until I have the dog in the car on the way here though.

Didnt work out the wayu things were planned.

Spent Friday evening in Auckland Hospital emergency dept.

Victim of a "hit and run".

Damm car thought he had more right to the space on the motorway that me and my bike were using.

Swerved into the gap, slammed on the brakes, I swerved to avoid him/her clipped the back left side of the car and slid down the road.

It was wet, cold, dark and rush hour so all i could see were the lights of the other vehicles bearing down on me.

Broken collarbone, bruising and such.

Bike has a cracked crankcase cover, broken clutch and a lot of scars.

Did have the mates around Saturday, we did watch the movies, we did drink the beer and rum as well as a bottle of mescal each. What a damm good pain killer.

Off work for a week or so. repairing the bike as it is my only transport.

Costing me about $1000NZ to fix the bike plus new helmet, gloves, jacket, over trousers and boots (all worn through by the tarmac).

Gotta go back to the hospital tonight as my closest cousin (Michael Moodie) at the age of 56 has been given 5-10 days left on this earth. The big C. I'm off to say goodbye and thank him for being my cuz.

Other than all the above, yes I do agree. ISNT LIFE GREAT



Hey Dai, you can be unlucky with that motorbike,good see hear that you weren't seriously hurt.The bike can be repaired but our bodies take alot more time to mend.

Have a good weekend.

Bike has been fixed, I'm on the mend. Physio again today.

This last accident was completely unavoidable by me this time.

Hit and run.

Apparently I take up space on the motorway that some car driver thought he had more right to.

I upheld the laws of physics and didnt occupy the same space as another body of matter.

Anyway this coming weekend i am off to Kaikohe (200 km north) for a small two day club shoot.

Not on the bike but with a friend in his van.

Gotta go and load some rounds or I wil not be shooting. Enen one handed as I seem destined tro do.

Levi,
I would like to thank you for the effort you and the rest of the gang are puting in. He has stated that he feels uncomfortable about receiving 'charity' and has been told, politely, to 'put a sock in it'.

Would you pass on my thanks to the team you have for what they are doing and please accept my thanks to you for same.

Regards

Thanks Levi and all the Badlands Bar 3 gang.As Judge Lead has said he is a very proud man but without help from people like you and all CAS shooters he would find it very hard to get stated again,He has a young family and good size farm to run and have just coming out of the worse drought for many years it would be a up hill battle for him to do by himself.We have setup a trust fund for them here Downunder which will hopefully start to get them back on there feet.

Have fun today Levi, tell Ringo I emailed him and to send me something back.

I hadn't thought about a Dingo getting him, but you are right, it would be a sick dingo.

I asked Ringo if he had seen an email from you and he said it has been a while since he checked his email. Hopefully he will check it tonite when he gets home.

The weather turned out great again today and we had a good shoot.

Sound like you are going to have a busy time to. I have a shoot on the same weekend called Shootout at Billy Goat Hill it held at Cowra in the centle west of our state and then the following weekend I have a club shoot on and then over Easter weekend we go down to our National Capital Canberra for a shoot called HOW Downunder, they shot the same stages as they did at Hell on Wheels last year,should be a lot of fun and gives our Aussie shooters an idea of what it's like to shoot in the US.

My parents wanted to put it off, but my sister is driving from Melbourne, some 600miles away, so I'll soldier on, pop a few cold and flu pills to tide me over and get to bed early no matter what the rest of the family is doing as I have to return and go to work early monday.

Drove 100miles and back to pick up some guns that a recently widowed friend found in an old chest of her husband's. It is a shame, the guns were all rusted and now junk. One was a Martini Cadet which was originally in excellent condition before the rust got to it. I told her I got $100  for the lot, but in fact they will all be junked. I didn't have the heart to tell her they were not worth anything, even though she realises they were pretty rough. It was an expensive exercise, $80 in diesel and the $100, but you gotta do these things occasionally.

A friend is throwing a 60th party for me (actually I'm paying for it, he's hosting it) tonight and I'm going to try and get my reloading set up working again, it's been all sitting in shipping crates since the wife took ill almost 2 years ago. I've been buying factory ammo, but my rifles are all down at the moment and I am going to dust off a nib Marlin 1894 for next week's shoot and I can't get 44mag or 44Special ammo. I can get Winchester cowboy 44Special ammo ($115 per 100) but it is some 200 miles away! Time to dust off the press.

Going interstate next week for the Winter Muster in South Australia.

Thanks dan, the party went well, we all had a quiet time, BBQ on the front lawn, most of the sifties sat inside and yakked and a grooup of us sat on the porch rugged up and yakked into the wee hours over a few jars.

This weekend, I'm cleaning up, packing for the big trip next week to the shoot and serviceing the truck today.

I promised Kid Savage some 38 brass to help him on his trip to EOT and spent a big portion of yesterday pulling stuff apart looking for them. I never did find them, but scraped up 350 nickel ones, so that should get him out of trouble. The good thing is, I found my Rockchucker! It was at the back of a shelf right down low. I must have stuffed it there when I moved back with the  late wife. All of my stuff just got shoved in there as she was sick and I didn't have time (or the inclination) to set it all up. I'm sure sick of buying factory stuff after nearly 40years of reloading everything, but I will be back in business shortly after getting back from Adelaide.

Well, the shoot in South Australia was awesome!!! Got back last night, it was a big drive, I clocked up some 1800miles all up (the diesel was an average of $7 a yankee gallon the last week or so,  :( ).

Lobo and Miss Fire, their son Coyote and his beautiful lady Violet Rose and a few others put on a shoot that wil get me back every year. I've always heard that Adelaide was hot and dry, but this year it was wet and blowing up a gale.

Thanks for the effort folks!

PS, I won a big tin of Trail Boss, I'll use this getting my transition to Classic Cowboy sorted and then I'll switch to the unholy black.

I'm off out west with work and will be back Friday afternoon. Next weekend will see a bity of local practice and a big clean up and a big effort to get my reloading gear back on line.

Well the permits for the pistols came through today and the permity for the shotgun came through a couple days ago, I will pick them up this weekend if my mate is around (they are with the club armourer at the moment). I'm plumb out of 44/40 ammo, so I'd best be getting my press back into operation. I won a big tim of trail boss last weekend, I'll use that for practice working out the ergonomics, etc of the soingle handed shooting and hammered shotgun, when I get that ironed out, I'll be loading the black. The way O see it I'm 60 now so, I've got 10-15-20 years, maybe more of trying to wear these new guns out shooting classic and that sounds like a nobel endeavour. I never thought a lot about building a character, but the penny dropped for me on that one last weekend, so, I'm also working on that. Looking forward to it all. Mick.

I plan to do a bit of cleaning up after this, then  it is off to dinner with a nice lady that I have met and I will pick her up Sunday and take her to a one day shoot with the Cowra Cowboys.

Boy, those pepper poppers are noisy! I R/O'd a practice shoot last Sunday, because we have a cop who is in charge of approving ranges in the state and is at worst certifiably mad I think and at best just plain old agenda driven and inconsistent, we must shoot from under steel baffles so we can't sgoot over the berm and he won't allow steel targets, the IPSC shoots are a noisy and tame. I don't mind shooting IPSC occasionally, but don't like the race guns. I shoot a bog standard 1911 Colt mostly and a 92FS Beretta occasionally. These practice shoots would be good practice for my cowboy guns as well I suppose. I am about to convert to classic cowboy and need to practice one handed.

I'll be cleaning out my shed so I can make room for my new gun safe. I also discovered it doesn't have bolt holes in the bottom, so I'll be spending some time drilling some. Hopefully my bits are sharp enough..

I'll be cleaning out my shed so I can make room for my new gun safe. I also discovered it doesn't have bolt holes in the bottom, so I'll be spending some time drilling some. Hopefully my bits are sharp enough..

I had that problem soe time ago, whacked a dob of weld where I wanted to drill, whacked it off quickly with the welder's hammer and drilled through th softened metal. I have a big gunsafe sitting in the trailer in my front yard. I get a bit of water under the garage door occasionally so I mounted a pair of skids/rails underneath to keep her bottom dry. I suppose some threaded bars and that realllllllllllll fancy glue will be the go. Lining up the holes is going to be a bear. I might have to make up a template with a spare piece of melomine or MDF or craftwood or similar. I think I'll lightly attach the board to the concrete, slide the safe on top, drill throught the holes into the board, remove the safe, drill through the holes in the board to the concrete, remove the board, vacuum, put the glue in the holes, put safe back, drop rods in, let set, come back a day later and put washers and nuts on the threaded bar and torque it down. I will be spraying the skids with glossy paint and using car wax as a release agent, because I think I wil probably be moving once again before too many years.

Who'da thunk a simple sounding job like bolting down a gunsafe would need so much elbow grease?  ;D

Mine has turned into a full empty out of the shed, and complete rearrangement. I decided that while I was at it, I'll need to be making some room for a reloading press and storage for all that paraphenalia.  A pard recommended an old metal filing cabinet as a good place to store that kind of thing.

Went to get my guns out of the safe in the garage (under the house) this morning and as I switched the alarms off and went to open the door, the door locking device broke and no way could I get it open. So much for shooting at Cowra with the Cowra Cowboys! Anyway, I gave up after an hour or so struggling in the dark and waking the neighbours (it's a wonder they didn't call the cops) and headed off to my lady's place had brekky and drove to the range and played spectators for the day. It was my lady's first look at SAS and she is stoked, grilling the ladies about costumes, (I bought her a cowboy hat the other day to get her started) guns (she likes the look of the Ruger singe six in 32). Apart from the snaffu with the door, it was a top day. Mick.

Cowboy shoot at Mudgee/Ilford Saturday and off to Sydney on Sunday for Circus Soliel, then we will spend the week driving my parents interstate for Dad's Army reunion. He was a member of the Australian 2/14th Infantry Battalion. They, with a Militia/reserve Battalion were the guys who inflicted Japan's first defeat in a land battle in 425 years on the Kokoda Tarck in New Guinea. They were known as 'The Quiet Men' by the Japs. Tough old buggars. dad had a fall a few weeks ago and punctured his right eyeball. He lost the sight in the eye, but it hasn't changed much else, he's still in high spirits and wants to meet his old mates for a shindig.

Cutting a mighty dashing figure there Captain! Are you tipping your hat to the camera or pointing a steenken pistola at it? A bit hard to tell.

Saturday getting ready for Buffalo Camp as I will be away all next week with work, so I want to be organised (for a change). I will also be installing a new (to me) safe in my office so I can do dry fire drills, etc.

Sunday off to Cowra to shoot with the Cowra Cowboys. Hopefully I will be able to get my new 1873 Uberti rifle working. I only managed to get one shot out of it last time. Hopefully it was an ammo issue. I don't fancy posting it back to Qld for  a fix. It will be nice to see where my new Piettas are shooting as well. I usually leave these things to the last moment and sort the bugs out in the middle or a big match, WRONG!!!!!  ;D

If yer interested in C&Bs I will bring along my new Cavalry Commemorative pair to Buff camp. I had all intentions of using these to shoot, but not sure at this stage.

My dear lady (Molly Blade) will be the new owner of a 30/30 and a Greener 12g hammer gun (NO need to lighten the hammers on this one  ;D ;)) when she has the permits in 4-6 weeks. Would like to have them for our Nationals end of September, but don't think it will happen :'(.

I'll be there, loaded some 30/30s with trail boss and fired them off at the range today. Couldn't see where they were hitting but bought the target back to 25yds, they are striking about 6" low on the maximum sight setting, bugger, I will have to re-think this.

I liked the Pat Garrett match so much, I plan on attending as many monthly weekend shoots at Cooyal that I can. Decided to buy a 1876 in 45/60 or 45/75. None to be had,  >:(

I thought about it and as I have a BPCR 45/70, I decided that I have the long range matches covered, so started looking for a 45/70 Cowboy Marlin. None to be had in those either,  >:(  >:(  >:(

All I could get was one of those big shiny ugly Marlin XTwhatevers in 45/70, the stainless one with the long Bbl and grey laminated wood. It is off to the Gunsmiths at Sefton for a cobbled up full length mag tube and a bit of honing and de-horning. I don't know about the wood though, I wonder if it will take a stain if I strip the finish off it????? ???

Anyways, looking forward to getting this big mutha slinging lead, thats for sure.
Mick.

Shucks, by the time the 1876s come in I won't be working and probably won't have the bucks for it, I was going to go full hog and get my own headstamp on the brass from Bruce Bertram and all.

A fool and his money are not soon parted if there's no toys in the country.

Anyways i will probably end up with a customised big Marlin which will end up costing the same or more that the 1876, especially if I re-stock it.

I wonder if the wood from a 444S will swap?

Had a great weekend at home, caught up Sat morning, shot a centrefire match at 1300, pottered about at home, read, cooked a baked dinner, read and surfed the net. Pouring rain this morning, outdoor chores put on hold, fiddled about, worked up loads for my cowboy guns all arvo (I haven't been in a position to load and have been shooting factory ammo for a while $$$$$$$$!!!!). My girl came over tonight with a casserole and a home cooked apple pie, watched a movie (walking the line) had seconds on the pie a few minutes ago, a sip of port and into bed soon. Been a good weekend all told!

Off to the rifle range tomorrow to test my loads ;D ;D ;D ;D

Fourfingers.

Sounds like you had a good weekend. I took the 76 to range on Saturday and put a few loads through it,worked well with 15 grains of Trailboss and 300 grain projectile. I also have been doing some work on a 73 I bought,put a short stroke kit in it  and I think I may have it working OK,not good but OK which is better them I have had it working lot of fiddling. :D

Yesterday I spent in the shed, lubing bullets and cleaning cases trimming down some 45-70 cases back to 45=60 length and loading some 45-60 cases so I will take it back to the range on Saturday.

I liked the Trail Boss in the 44/40 but I noticed in the Thales / ADI site that in the 45/70 it returned significantly higher pressure that AR2207 and for a lot less velocity. I tried everywhere to get an 1876, no joy at all. I ended up buying a 45/70 XLR or whatever it is. Barry Smith at Sefton is making up a mag tube and slicking it up/de burring/ de horning it for me. It should be a sweet rifle when I get it. I have a BPCR in 45/70 which pretty much covers the long range shoots.

No shooting this weekend, visiting dad and mom on saturday arvo, dinner and Leo Sayer concert, camping at a smart pub in Sydney and a drive back via Mount Wilson for a nice picnic and then home.

Back to the range on Monday arvo though! ;D

I will have to try some loads for my 45/70 BPCR. After a disasterous shoot with the 30/30 at Cooyal, I will shoot single shot at the nationals, I won't have the permit for the Marlin in time. I have a 375 Win whick I can run 38/55 loads through, but it has a reciever sight   :( I also have a 444S, but that calibre is verboten and I sold an 1875 45/70 to a friend and could borrow it back for a week or so, but it also has a reciever sight,  >:(

I don't know how the BPCR will go with the big tang sights at 50 metres, I'll pull the disc out and try it 'ghost ring' style.

I have had it for over 10 years and never got around to using it much. This will at least make me get it out of the back of the safe and blow the cobwebs out of it.

last night, a friend rode up from Sydney on the way to a rally at Tottneham in the far west of the state. He stayed at one of the local pubs and we sat and jawed and drank raspberry cordials until 4am!!!! I'm getting too old for this sort of stuff!

Today, Saturday, visit for lunch from my parents as they head west for an 80th birthday party. Down to the polling booths, handed out how to vote cards for a friend who is standing for election to the local council. She is retired and drives her hubby into the ground with community stuff, on boards nd projects everywhere, flat out all the time. They should take up shooting and do something enjoyable with their time  ;D

Off to shoot with the Cowra Cowboys tomorrow.

Wow! That jousting looks like a hoot! I'm getting a bit long in the tooth though, if I was knocked off one of those hosses, I don't think I'd get up in a hurry, if at all.

I have to check, if there's any shooting available Friday, I will aim to get to Narrabri thursday arvo, if not I will be there Friday arvo.

After Narrabri and Chisholm Trial, I will be meandering back down the coast for a week or two. I mightn't be on the net for awhile, I'll see how it goes.

Open day Saturday, lots of interesed people, record numbers, a couple of good shots the best of all was a guy who was an old fart like me, but he terrified me waving the pistola around, I'm knackered, been standing around in the sun all day. Just had a few beers, a good feed, washed down with some cheap plonk, feeling no pain, off to bed early. Nothing much planned for tomorrow, bit of work on the 4wd, desert road trip to the outback coming up next week, got to get ready. Bought an RCBS Green Machine in 45ACP for $AU150.00, I will have to drive south in a few weeks to pick it up. I won't need any rocking tonight.

No shooting for me for the next two weekends, taking my sister and a few of her girlfriends on a trip to Mildura/Mungo, etc. Staying at a resort in Mildura and doing day trips around the area. Come home via Mungo/Ivanhoe and a wine shopping spree at Griffith (doesn't grab me much, my wines are either cleanskins or come in a cardboard box with a tap on the front.

A night out at Stephano's is always good.

It should be a nice break.

When I get back I have about 1500 44/40 and 1000 odd 45 Colt cases to reload. Then I am going to make some serious noise.

It is a custom made copy of Charlie Princes jacket from 3:10 to Yuma.

Back home after my holiday in Mildura, loads of Italian preserves, wine and dried fruit, etc. Onto the loading bench first thing tomorrow, loading up for the Cowra Cowboys monthly shoot on Sunday. Saturday will be a day in the yard getting my veggie garden going again after a 6 year lay off, followed by a ride on my motorcycle in the afternoon. daylight saving now, lots of day!

Post by: fourfingersofdeath on November 05, 2008, 02:38:38 PM
Danged if I can get my 1873 to work properly, so there's not much point going to Cowra on Sunday.

I'll be off to the pistol club on Sat for a centrefire or standard pistol match and a bit of load development and might go for a ride with the Ulysses Club on Sunday. They have a ride which normally clashes with the Cowboys' shoot, I usually head for Cowra, but it looks like I finally will be free.

The rest of the weekend will be spent preparing my camper for a short break at Nelson Bay next week. Toughjob, but someone's gotta do it.

Christmas Party at the Bullseye range today, it will be a sober affair for me, I'm not allowed to drink at the moment due to the antibiotoics, but it still should be good.

Lashed out and upgraded two motorcycles in the last week, one near new, one brandnew (never had a new one before).

Now I gotta clean out the garage so the newbie can go inside, that was a condition teh insurance company insisted on. Bugger.

Getting ready for the black powder shoot this morning, one of the younger guys rang in and the club president conned the poor guy into picking up a heap of coffees from MacDonalds. He had to go home and get his wife to help him there was so many. John Triggs drove in a few minutes before the coffee arrived and gratefully accepted a coffee as they were being passed out to the owners. Turns out it was el Presidente's coffee Joh scooped up  ;D. John was non plussed about it. Boy we gave him a bit of stick about it though.

Cold and windy, but a good days shooting was had by all of the soot kings. I was running about helping (probably just getting in the way) and I felt a bit out of it so I bought a cap and ball gun in the middle of the shoot. A Uberti brass framed Texan 44 I think it is. Lotza fun.

I will be doing some BP loading this weekend, travelling 60 miles to the next town to see the guys at the big Service Pistol shoot there, I haven't got time to spend the whole weekend there, I'll take the swag and maybe have a few jars and camp on the range. I'll see how it goes.

Up to my ears in garden clean up this weekend. My friend and his wife has a buisness cleaning up yards and farms, etc (I can't really imagine a job I'd like less).

I didn't do much, but was sweating like a navvy and staggering around like an old drunk by the end of the day. Good job my mate and his wife are made of sterner stuff, they really jumped in, felled a few nusicanse trees and lots of unwanted tangles of shrubs, cleaned out and weeded long neglected garden beds, rotary hoe'd and then levelled a section of the yard ready for some raised garden beds. We took a few loads of rubbish in his truck to the dump and they will be back tomorrow with the stump grinder and a truckload of mulch. I won't need any rocking tonight.

It will be good to get it all done though, between travelling away with work with my late wife for five years, nursing her for a year and being a widow looking after my useless (but reasonably pleasent son) the place has gone to wrack and ruin and has been a bit of an eyesore (especially given the fact that I have a old landrover and several motorbikes under tarps and spare 4wd wheels and tyres, etc cluttering up the joint.

lWith the heat and my poor state of health, I'm a shot duck, best be getting an early night.

Wow! Another weekend has rolled around almost.

Still cleaning up and throwing out junk (it was considered good stuff until recently :D ). Sunday moring I will pack it in, wash the 4wd in the morning (It hasn't been cleaned since well before the big duststorms we had in September). Once that's doen I will hop on the motorcycle and ride 65 miles west and have lunch at the range with the Cowra Cowboys as it is their Christmas shoot. I haven't got time to shoot unfortunately. After lunch, I will return home, drop the bike off and saddle up the 4wd and head to my Brother in Law's place in Sydney. I will stay the night and then go to the airport and pick my wife up early Monday morning. Big weekend and no shooting, don't yer just hate that?

That's almost a posse!

I bought a helmet and safety apparel fo rmy wife on Friday and we rode to Black Springs to meet the guys and girls from the bike club in Sydney. They were on the way to the Capitol Rally in Canberra and camp at Black Springs on the way. We had a good yarn around the fire, ate dinner including a few jaffles and rode back.

Clean up day today and off to Bunnings to get garden supplies. My wife thought she was in heaven, there were hundreds of plants on sale for $2. That kept her out of mischief for the rest of the day. I cooked a roast dinner and got ready for the Cowra Cowboys tomorrow.

I had a rush of blood the other day and bought a set of consecutively numbered stainless Ruger Old Armys with open sights and 5 1/2" Bbls from Cleavers. They will keep me out of mischief getting them working when I get them.

Hot? Yep, it was HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTT! None of the Canberra mob was there which was a shame, I always enjoy their company and Mule Camp at Canberra was my first real cowboy shoot, as I have always regarded the Majura mob as my cowboy family, Ricochet, Grace, Miss Clancy and Trooper and Pinkerton who I only ever see every blue moon. I went pretty well considering I haven't shot a match since Chisholm in October apart form my normally ultra reliable Urtechnea shotgun failing badly after being assaulted by a tune up gunsmith. I have had pretty good luck with gunsmiths over the years, but I have had major troubles with cowboy gunsmiths in several firearms. This shooty was mega reliable, pressed into service when I had shotgun trooubles, it has never missed a beat. the only hangup was that the opening lever was a bit stiff. I specifically asked that the triggers be left alone. Now it is out of time and refuses to fire anything other that Federal ammo. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! I gotta get the books out and do my own!

Anyway, no shooting next weekend off to the Hunter Valley on the motorcycle, a swim in the river and dinner and a few beers at the Bank Hotel at Dungog. Visit the Bro in law on Sunday and have one of his wife's famous Lamb Roasts (every diner gets their own bone to chew!). We have an appointement in Sydney on Monday on the way home and I will have to pop into Horsley Park to check out a new cowboy shotty! Dinner in the mountains, maybe a big pie at the Ivanhoe Hotel in Blackheath r carve up some twisties on the Bell's Line of Road and a feed in the Irish Reataurant at the Workies at Lithgow. Lifeis too short!

What did you buy? I just bought a pair of ROAs and they are with the club armourer and I have a pair of RNMVs coming for the wife. They are the SASS specials in 38 with the lowered hammer. She doesn't know yet, she will be stoked. I got  the 357 Rossi tuned up nice for her. She jasn't fired the shotty yet, that may be a prob, don't think so though, shes as keen as mustard.

The NMVs should be good, I use a pair of 45s in 5 1/2" Bbls (amongst other steenking pistolas, I wish I could just settle on one set :( ). I have a pair of SASS NMVs in 357 coming for the wife. Good luck with them.

Goofing off on Saturday, RO'ing on Sunday, IPSC and plinkers I think. I'd better dust off the 1911 or the Beretta.

Saturday: Service the Datto (1990 Nissan Patrol 4.2Ltr Diesel) tomorrow morning, formal pistol shoot at 1pm at the Pistol Aust Club, try and squeeze in a ride on the BM before a big dinner (my Chinese wife did a power of shopping at the Chinese supermarkets in Sydney today).

Sunday: Novelty shoot at the SSAA Pistol Club, I don't know what they are shooting, so I'll take a cap and ball, a 1911, a 92FS, a 22 and a 38, that should cover it! If I don't get the ride done on Saturday, I might head out after the range on Sunday.

I won't need any rocking on Sunday night.

Nice bikes those Honda Vs. My mate had one, you couldn't hurt it. He lived about 200 yards from the beach at Maroubra and there wasn't one bit of chrome that wasn't bubbled, peeled and rusted, but he rode that ugly gal all over Australia.

Where are you based Tex? We should do a ride together one day.

ScheeooooooooooooT!! I live up the road at Bathurst. How's that for convienence?

Shot both days, mostly with the cap and ball, getting used to it. It hasn't seen much use and was very still, it is starting to improve, but gunks up quick.

My wife who is a new shooter lined up to shoot the cap and ball gun. She was very pleased that I had the noisiest, smokiest gun at the range!

I didn't get to have a ride, I was just too beat. I'm too old, having trouble keeping up to this hectic retirement lifestyle. I think I will dust the bike off tomorrow (during working hours so to speak  ;D ;D ;D ;D.

Tamworth was a great shoot! A great dinner at Outback Jack's on Saturday night, kicked off at 930am on Sunday, 6x stages and all Gunfighter friendly. Mind you no one in our possee was shooting gunfighter. I fancy shootign it, but I think I would have brain fade if i tried it, I get into enough trouble already!

Like I said, a great shoot!


Off to Newcastle area next weekend, picking up a couple of rifles that have been languishing at Cessnock (not cowboy guns, a fox shooter and an old Commisssion 8mm). I will also be dropping a few rifles in at my mate's place for restoration and then will shoot at the NewTexican's monthly shoot on Sunday. Can you camp on the range there? I have a camper trailer, I'm self sufficient for power. Maybe I should stay in the pub at Islington and have a slap up feed at the Indian Restaurant in Beaumont Street?

Plan B, Gunshops in Sydney Saturday morning (picking up a nice SxS Miroku 12Ga, swapped a fancy shotgun that I picked up in a trade that  doesn't fit me, maybe a new 223 as well). I bought the parents a new air con, so I will install that in the afternoon, then off to Newcastle for the shoot Sunday. It's a shame most of my friends there will all be in New Zealand kicking butt at the range, but no doubt it will be a good shoot anyway.

Visit the gunshop and pick up the other rifles on Monday and a visit to the beach while we're there and a leisurely drive home. It should be a good un'.

Like most things we are involved in 90% of the work will be done by 10% of the people. I'd still rather be one of the ones you are needing and not just feeding.

I have to get the big safe installed this weekend, I have my gun audit coming up. I've already managed to put it off once, but my back is totally trashed. I have a lot of damage and degeneration to the lower spine and a prisoner tried to break my neck once and that has gone out in sympathy with my lower back. Normally comes good in a few days, lately a week or so, but it has been three weeks now and I'm still buggered. I'm going to have to put my hand in my pocket and hire a navvy to help. Not really up to shooting or much else at the moment.

As soon as the wife stops force feeding me birthday tucker, I will have to lose a few pounds (quite a few) if I'm gonna keep turning up at the range and making noise.

I may be lame at the moment, but I'm not completelyout of the game yet saltbush.

My youngest boy is coming up on the weekend as it turns out. He is about to join the Navy and hasn't used a pistol much in the past 10 years (he was a commando in the regular army). He wants to blow the cobwebs away and is going to blast off some ammo through my Norinco 1911 9mm. That should be good. It ain't exactly a Browning, but its close enough.

Off to a school reunion  on Saturday, taking my 89 yr old father, because it is a reunion for the schools in REdfern/Waterloo area. I went to StVincents in Redfern and started there in 1952 or 3 and dad went to Mt Carmel at Waterloo and started there in 1926. INcredibly, he and his remaining classmates met once a month for dinner at Souths Rugby League club for lunch until recently. There was only three left, one a famous South Sydney footballer who passed away recently and Billy Wenham, the actor David Wenham's father. Dad's the only one left.

I ran into a woman when I was 20 something and I was down that way. It amazes me but I didn't get her details. I haven't run into any others since and the school is long closed. It should be interesting. It will give Mum a short break from looking after Dad as well. I'll drive home on Sat night and head off to Cowra to shoot with the Cowra Cowboys on Sunday.

It should be a good weekend.

Loading ammo this week and checking the loads at the range Saturday, giving the camper a trial ri=un on Sunday to see if it is still in working order. Lots of preparation for Cowra the week after.

Just got back from Cowra, what a great shoot! I shot double duellist for the first time, boy that was hard, but fun!!!

Off to Sydney to represent the local shooting club at the Association's Annual General Meeting. I expect it will be interesting and boring all at once. There is a shoot at Kenthurst on Sunday. I'd love to go, but may not be able to fit it in. We'll see how we go.

It was! We had the news crews and such spending a lot of time with us over the two days. Hopefully we get on TV and in the paper for a bit of extra promotion.

I'm still a relative newcomer, so I'm happy to have finished 5th in Wrangler. Frank James topped the overall leaders, closely followed by Dixon Mills. I came 6th overall in the speed shotgun event. A couple of squib loads cost me 10 odd misses, but nothing was going to take the smile off my face. I'll be making a bigger effort to get to more big shoots. It was a hoot!  ;D

I shot double duellist for the first time, boy that was hard, but fun!!!

I just realised looking at the scores I shot in the seniors and shot double duellist, no wonder I got my butt kicked! That will teach me to put the form in and not just give Witchita the money and verbal instructions! No problem, I would have got my butt kicked anyway. I'll get my Ruger Old Armies out tomorrow and see how I go with them. Maybe Frontersman is calling me :D.

It's gotta be a big bore and it's gotta be loud!

I'll be cleaning guns, loading and testing ammo. getting the camper ready. charging batteries, servicing the truck, etc, etc etc.

On Monday I will be off to Mudgee to camp (in a cottage in the caravan park) will some old friends and a crowd of their friends that I haven't met yet. We will be there for the week, visiting vineyards, local sights, etc.

Back on Fri, take the much neglected motorcycle for a nice ride to charge the batteries up and have a picnic lunch somewhere. Final prep and hitch the camper up on Saturday, Cowra Cowboys on Sunday, then head west to Broken Hill on the way to Adeliade, arriving on the 10th for Winter Muster shoot, the next week dooling around Robe and Mt Gambier, into Melbourne for the monthly shoot at Little River, a week in Melbourne visiting my sister, then a side by side shotgun shoot with the Vintagers Order of Edwardian Gunners before wending my way up the coast over a few days.

Big trip, about 20-25 scenarios, lotsa ammo, lotsa fun.

Looks like I will have to give the Cowboys at Cowra a miss, just plumb ran out of time. Grease and oil change tomorrow, load up the guns, hook up the camper, last minute check, fridge, beer and food on board and we're off! Probably pull into a motel in West Wyalong Sunday and camp the rest of the time. Now going by Mildura rather than Broken Hill. We will return later in the year and make a good trip out of it.

You going Dakota?

Yep, it's a bit picadilliy nowadays, my arthritus started playing up and I strained my bicep or shoulder and I had trouble sholdering the rifle and I was shooting koalas out of the trees with the revolver, so I ended up coming last :(

I had a good time around the fire though.

Going shopping! Looking for a single shot for the Pat Garrett match. Choice between a new Chippawa Mini Sharps in 38/55 and a 70s vintage H&R Big Horn Comemorative. Maybe I should buy both, my wife could use the Mini Sharps while I use the BPCR for long range shooting. Doctor's appointment and back to Bathurst for the committee meeting on Sunday morning, followed by a shoot. I'll kick back and take a spell Sunday arvo.

Currently watching my Chinese wife eat a brekky you can't jump over! No shooting scheduled, shoulder too sore! Carefully loading up Black Powder 44/40s and 12Ga for the BP match at Kenthurst next weekend.

I almost forgot, I ended up buying the H&R Little Big Horn replica (3x rifles in 45/70, I need to go progressive :D ).

I am loading blackpowder for Kenthurst too, have some to do for myself and The Major and Paddlewheel, lucky they all are in 44-40 will keep me busy Saturday and Sunday. And I have work to do on a camper that I bought last week.

See you at Kenthurst.

What sort of camper did you buy?

I have a OzTrail Camper 9 which is a well built road/light duty off road rig. I wanted to build a new trailer so that I could put the motorcycle across the drawbar. I got quoted $8-9000, which would have blown out above that. I found a bare camper trailer last week which is virtually exactly what I wanted, 3 years old for $2200! The previous owned upgraded his trailer to accommodate his kid's gear and transferred his stuff across, which hopefully I will be able to do. Even if I have to buy a new tent thingo, it will work out well.

What made you go to a camper? Caravan too big to tow?

Looking good! I like their motorcycle trailer (I won't buy one yet though I'll wait till my shoulder gets better.) That should make life easier, Governing this grand state.

No shooting this weekend, off to the Taralga Pub with the BMW (Motorcycle) Touring Club of NSW for the awards night and a celebration of our first wedding anniversary. I hope it warms up some, I was R/O'ing at the range today and shooting some of the BP loads left over from the weekend. I was rugged up heavily, but still froze. I hope it warms up a tad for the weekend. We have some prisoners coming from the gaol (jail) this Sunday to build up the retaining wall, so no shooting. The boys will put on a sausage sizzle to keep them motivated.
