howdy WildOkdee

found my old reloading data and this is what it says,

these days I use  a bit more powder to get a 160 PF

you need to chronograph your gun to get your PF

45 acp 4,25 / N320 – 220 RN

Modern Springfield 1911 – 715 ft/s  - 157 PF  - teste date 20.june.2019

hope this helps

Good morning ya'll

Was thinkin, if total time finally is good enough for cowboy, it should be good enough for wbas too

Total time gets my vote,         

KISS - keep it simple scoring

Regards

Samuel B

Atleast the finger was outside the triggerguard

Cocked and unlocked........hope it was empty

Oh well, anything for a good posse photo

Total Time

howdy

we have a buckarette that shoot WB with us all the time

she uses her dad's guns and ammo, and are doning better than well, she won the 2 last matches ( lady modern )

think it's kind a cool and yes we need more kids

Samuel B

howdy my friends

I've been thinkin of this for a while and are still befuzzeled

if a shooter has 11 perfect stages and earn them self a SDQ,

we are to award them inorder to let them still be in the game - remember we earn penalties -

BUT the poor bastard that have had a match of his life and have shoot 12 perfect stages, but a bit slower is  beaten by a sdq - not right in my book.

Total Time SDQ - x misses + 30 sec

Tie - the winner is the one with the fastes stagetime starting on the last stage

Hey Tully

The way I read and practice this is that the slide can be let down gently

BUT the hammer must be released unimpeded by the trigger,  in order to set off a primer, but hopefully just go click

Samuel B

Weeel, for us simple guys with enough problems counting using fingers when adding 2+2

We like to use total time

In the end total time gives the same answer in a single category or when mixing them all together

KISS my friends, is the answer

Samuel B

You sir, are correct, waaaay to few magazines

I guess they are already loaded for all the  stages too  :o

Howdy my WBAS friends

The Good

            is that Fire and Ice WBAS is on February the 17th

            is that there is still time to sign up on the cowtown website http://ccsa-az.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2017-WB-FIRE-AND-ICE-APP.pdf

The Better

            ya'll are comin to shoot with us

            ya'll get warmed up for WR - NO rain

            ya'll will have JT Wild is one of the match directors

The Troll

            sorry to say, he'll be there too  ;)

Samuel B

Thank you my friends for all the good tips, think I'm going to try one

And Dirty Southpaw, sorry for hijacking your tread, but I belive you got your help too  ;)

Samuel B

Thank you

Anywhom late or not

I wave my hat and my best congratulations to all the winners

Good job in the dusty heat

Samuel B Carpenter

Hey Norfleet

Where did you find your bead 1911 front sight and what brand is it?

Thanks

Samuel B

use a '97  ;)

joke aside, I use a bandana or some kind of remember gadget and still I forget and the TO saves me by asking what kind of shotgun that is

my best bet is that you use something that you understand and will remind you and then

practice practice practice

Samuel B

;D ;D ;D ;D

this is how my posses faces looked like after day one

good stages and nice size targets

weather is super nice and all is good

looking forward to day two

day 2, same nice weather, but some of the targets moved when I engaged them ;)

all i all, Winter Range WBAS was good, challenging enough for most and some you can not please

I say this I'm not clean nor fast so for me it was challenging enough. 

Samuel B

Howdy my fellow wildbunchers

I feel that a correction is needed

in the January chronicle Tex writes about the first clean match shooting WBAS

Silvertip did this at Winter Range last year, I feel he need some credit too, clean is hard when playing WBAS, I know I have tried  ;)

regards

Samuel B
