VA FIRE and BRIMSTONE POSSE

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Hey if'n one of you guys is going to show - can you look for prelubed felt wad 12 guage wads for brass shells?

I am almost out.  Just realized last night as I was looking to reload some from Mattaponi two day.

Luckily I have plenty loaded up for ROUND-UP and a coouple monthly shoots.

Poney try "Track of the Wolf" online, good prices, usually have what you need in stock, reasonable shipping.  WW told me he uses the 11 gauge wads for the 12 gauge Brass Shells to get the fit right, I tried some 12 gauge in the brass shells I just got and everything would be falling out if I used the 12 gauge size.

[Pony Racer]

LIT roger that.

I have used TOW before for other things.

If'n no one has them this weekend - I will probably order through them again.

I have maybe 50-70 left but between 2 day at Mattaponi and ROUND-UP I will shortly be out.

They are so thick compared to the cards, you do not realize how quickly you are running out of them.

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Do they need to be that thick Poney?  I am wondering if they could be split in half so you get double for your money, it would only slightly reduce the column height.

[Pony Racer]

Hmmmmmmmmmm I was doing that for my little 2 inch shells.

I don't know someone might say I am being a gamer!!:)

   I heard at the last Show they charged $14 bucks admission if it's that much I won't be going to them anymore.< I worked till 2pm the day of

The actual charge is $18 for a 3-day pass or $12/day.  Still very expensive.   

[Pony Racer]

Wow - the last show I went to was 7 bucks with my coupon.

Since I knew I needed some things - money well spent

But whew too much just to gander

Hit the road tomorrow

The Fire and Brimestone posse is well represented at The BRR this weekend.  Several of us unfortunately did not make it.  But from the early reports there is a lot of smoke and fire in them dar hills.  The report is it rained a bit in the morning.  Good thing it did.  Would not want to have my pards setting the mountains on fire . . . . for real!

[litl rooster]

Sure glad they had two picture perfect days for the match......unfortunately other unannounced plans put a damper in my weekend.   Hope Tensleeps or Arcey  or PR post some photos or 3

[Arcey]

Tom, we kin always use ya for a hay bale........

Boys, I'm as good can be expected for a broke down ole man, thankee. Just time ta time I ain't sleepin' right if at all. Thought I'd stand a chance of fallin' asleep on the interstate. Can't abide the thought of hurtin' someone else over me doin' sumthin' stupid.

[Pony Racer]

Well - hopefully next time we canall hoop and holler together and stay regular when it comes to getting rid of bodily stuff:)!

Reloading operations have begun as my bp 44 bullets came and i have loaded some already, all brass from match has been cleaned and the shotgun shells will be deprimed tonight and reloaded and drying(the white glue) by the weekend.

Planning on reloading around 200 44 bulets and then probably load up 400 or 500 38 spl rounds too. 

At next monthly think I will bring my 44's but finally play around with a pair of Nagants too, as well as test out my new and improved 11mm french loads - looking at the Wakefield match first of May and then TIB IV as next shooting endeavors

BTW - Dutch Henry can get us our sashes and can easily get purple and black - they are 35.00 a pop.
