Grouchy Spike Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 The Texas State WB Match is scheduled for 11/4-11/5 at Comanche Valley Vigilantes in Cleburne. Who's planning to participate in this challenging match? I am, so is Judge Hangin Knott! Quote
Grouchy Spike Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 Not yet. Check the CVV website periodically: www.comanchevalley.org Are you planning to enter the BAM side match? Quote
Back 40 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 GS, YES, if I get a BAM rifle bought. Shopping now. Quote
DUSTY BODDAMS Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 Back 40, watch out! It starts with just one bamm rifle and then.............. Quote
Grouchy Spike Posted June 30, 2017 Author Posted June 30, 2017 DB should know about that! Whatcha shopping fer? Quote
Back 40 Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Oh, I really don't know. Probably a '03 so I can buy ammo off the shelf. Quote
Lone Dog Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Off the shelf 3006 ammo is not allowed by the landowner at CVV. Lead pills only Quote
Grouchy Spike Posted July 2, 2017 Author Posted July 2, 2017 Oh, I really don't know. Probably a '03 so I can buy ammo off the shelf. Back 40, you'll want to load your own 30-06 with cast bullets, or buy some loads from someone like Hoodoo Brown at CVV. It's much more user friendly to run at 1500 - 1800 fps than 2600 fps! There is a good source of cast bullets (Norm Purcella among others) and recipes available for some proven loads. Try it, you'll like it! For the 30-06, 150 gr cast bullet, 32.5 gr IMR 4064 = 1725 fps. It's amazingly accurate at these ranges out to 200 yds, maybe even further. Others have similar or maybe even more accurate loads.

Lone Dog Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 I plan to be there for sure. Internal body parts breakdowns have knocked me from shooting since mid-Sept but I should have the faulty bits out and recovered by then. Very much looking forward to it. Quote
Grouchy Spike Posted July 10, 2017 Author Posted July 10, 2017 Lone Dog, you will see at least seven from the Texican Rangers at the State WB match, and you know four of those from your time at Comancheria Days! And five of those are BAMM shooters with 03A3s and K31s. Quote
Griff Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 As usual, I'll be waiting til the last minute to decide... SWMBO has yet to give me a "go-ahead"... Quote
Hoodoo Brown Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 Griff---If you remember, I told you last year that I would shoot SENIOR Traditional with you this year. Well, I'm old enough now, so you better show up!...Hoodoo. Quote
