It's a soybean header chopper link for a Case IH combine. About a 1998 model. Hell, I don't know....nor do I care.
What does the first "A" in ATA stand for? Does this mean the ATA will be voting on a name change soon?
How many man-hours it would take to make 125 targets for ONE round for ONE squad??
I used to shoot at two facilities that had mountains rising far above target flight as backgrounds. They were universally felt to be hard to shoot...
No it won't. But it will stop the events from producing 50 or 60 200x200 scores and endless shootoffs. I think that was his goal.
He will be missed. A lot.
You're welcome.
That's generous? How many kids today would do that job for $55? Fifty-five bucks for a day's work in hard, dirty, dangerous conditions today is...
I was an ATA member for the year 2021. I did not receive one issue of their magazine. Not ONE. (That was one of the reasons I did not renew my...
when all else fails, I have a tool that will remove a stuck 12 gage choke tube and leave the barrel unharmed. It's called a bolt extractor and it...
Been to the grocery store lately? Or to your local Chevy dealer? Thank you, Progressive Left.
Records are made to be broken.
Man, some of these kids have nice equipment.
Not many any more; we're getting too old.
Ah, doubles.....forgot about that. Thank you.
The kids get two shots per target?
What the.......???!!!! COACH!!!!!
With enough practice, you will learn to break targets consistently with any POI. Even with a 30/70. My point is: you have to learn what POI works...
Whadda' ya' want for second place??
Now we know why the Lewis system was developed.
Yeah. I've seen that as well. We had a local event that started two years ago. The initial participation was not what the organizers had hoped, but...
My second shotgun was a JC Higgins, back in the mid 1960's. Anything would have been a step up from that; Model 12's, Wingmasters, Ithacas,...
Youth sports are always well-funded. I've seen about a 10% drop in trap participation (non-youth). Sporting clays seems to have picked up about the...
It certainly wasn't at the same quality level as the Parkers, Superposeds, and Foxes back in the day. Yes, it cost more than most of the other pump...
"Are you implying that the higher grade guns use softer steel in their barrels? Sacrilege !" A common, inexpensive (compared to many other guns of...
Do you want local or are you willing to ship the receiver nationwide?
Good luck with that. He probably wants to avoid large-scale protests being held on his front yard.
That requirement might lower everyone's scores a little, but it won't bring everyone's scores into parity. The top shooters will still consistently...
I, too, have bought my 3 boxes, taken them to the truck, gone back and gotten three more at Wal-Mart. The poor cashiers there don't know about the...
Just ordered eight flats of Federal Top Guns in #8's.
Interesting thread. Just got back from Wal-Mart, where the shotshell shelves are usually empty. Today, lots of Winchester AA's ($11.49/box) and...
That argument has never been truly relevant.
The number "5" was a WAG, but I don't think it is far off. Look at how lead shot is made and how a jacketed bullet is made and I think you'll agree.
Remember, we ain't talking about BBB-sized steel shot here...............
True enough, as far as it goes. The only other aspect to consider is that the bullet in a handgun, while containing less lead, actually cost about...
Sure. Why not?
Are you implying that the higher grade guns use softer steel in their barrels? Sacrilege !
You'd think the ATA would have figured this out a long time ago, and make it clear to all members. I'm reminded of another reason why I did not renew...
Until lead shot is universally outlawed, it will be the cheapest and most effective shot of the those two. In other words, as of today, steel would...
Central Kansas
Just came back from Wal-Mart. They have Winchester AA's for $11.49 a box, maximum of 3 boxes per customer/per day. That was it for target loads....
Heck, even five years ago you could find STS and AA loads for $5 a box on sale/w' rebate without much trouble.
If the ATA wants to put some of that grant money to good use, increase membership AND membership participation, and promote good will among shooters,...
Magic.........
Some of you guys need to write books. Should be as much fun to read as 'Blowing Smoke'!
Appears to be an active site. Sweet.
Good. You can leave what's left to me.
Getting close to the end and it's getting more interesting by the page.
Did you pick up some of those 4-packs?
..and imagine that you are the 5th shot from the 27. The bird is fast approaching ground zero.
