CC I don't know what you have studied and what methods were used. BUT Making 150 PF in a .38 is not an issue. The issue is that shooters look at loading data that is meant for a pistol barrel length of 4 to 5 inches and say you can't make PF and stay within recommended charges. Go to Hodgen website they have a very interesting article on the subject of muzzle velocity from a pistol verses a rifle with the same powder charge. All within SAMMI specifications. As a side note I personally have tested 3 different Factory .38 Cowboy Action loads that more than make a 150 PF. Marshal Stone

Multiple National and World Championships have been won with that Clays load. Unfortunately, Clays is really hard to come by. I'm told Clay Dot works with basically the same charge. I've shot WST loads and can't tell the difference between the two. But YMMV. Marshal Stone

Thank you. Marshal Stone

This surprises you because?????? Marshal Stone

It's a personal preference thing. Some like it in front, some in the back, some all on one belt, some use 2 belts. There is no one size fits all. Try some different things and see what works best for you. Marshal Stone

Mine are; 1. Springfield Mil-Spec or a Colt Series 70 2. I think around 8. would have to check the safe to be sure. Have .22, 9mm, and 45 acp. 3. My EDC is a Ruger SR 1911 in commander length, Great gun and easy to conceal. 4. first fired on in the mid 80's. Only had my Grandfathers 45acp. Didn't really get into 1911's until Wild Bunch. Happy Thanksgiving Marshal Stone

That's something to consider. Marshal Stone

230 gr. Desperado Cowboy bullets with either: 3.6 gr. Clays 4.3 gr. VV N320 4.1 gr. WST 4.8 Unique 5.1 HP 38 Any of these will work. A Chrono is your best friend. I also use Federal Large pistol magnum primers. Marshal Stone

WB RO instructors and CRO's will be included in TG meetings just like what is done on the CAS side of the house. Marshal Stone

Will let everyone know when I know. When the meeting is set a notice, and link should be sent to all WB TGs by the SASS office. Marshal Stone

There will be a WB TG and Instructor meeting at Land Run. Let your TG or instructor know the things you think we should be talking about. Marshal Stone WB ROC member

A 150 PF in .38's isn't a problem using 158 gr. bullets I did some testing recently and had the following results with FACTORY .38 special 158 gr. COWBOY AMMO. Grizzly just made it with a 151 PF, HSM made a 158 PF, Winchester made 168 PF All shot at indoor range with my 20" rifle The Winchester is the ammo that is provided to the club for the annual youth day. Kids from 8-18 shoot this out of revolvers and rifles, without issue. What's the problem with a 150 power factor for both pistol and rifle. Shoot .38's if you must but make 150 PF. Just don't make excuses!!! Marshal Stone WB TG Alaska 49ers

Have WBTG's been elected at all WB clubs? What about the WBROC? Which (to my knowledge) has not been appointed. Can't even begin to discuss effectively any thought of making changes until both are completed. Marshal Stone

They were. Were given out from the original 7 member WBROC. Marshal Stone
