What do you shoot?
Kinda getting the feel for the Revolvers, Rifles, and SHotguns you guys are shooting in Cowboy and Mounted.
Modifications and stuff like that too. Thanks, Headhunter SASS "Jon Mule" #69204

Actually buddy-ro most of the HC memebers have kinda been out of it for the most part the last year. Seems like real life caught up with us. Myself, looks like I might be back in by years end though.
Currenty I shoot. Stainless Rossi '92 45 colt carbine (Old style no tag safety) - mods? I replaced the rear sight with a Marbles Semi Buckhorn. I am still looking for someplace I can get a steel follower for the magazine to replace the factory plastic, and if I can ever come across a new set of stocks I am going to carve my old ones (I want a spare set first) I have also wrapped the bottom of the lever with rawhide lacing (Give me a better feel when chambering, but thats just me) Blued Ruger Blackhawk 45 colt 5.5" barrel revolver. Mods? New grips, reamed the cylinder throats, and did a poor man's trigger job on it. Eventually I will replace the ejector housing with blued steel, and the grip frame with brass. I have also considered a free spin pawl. Blued Remington 1897 Outlaw (reproduction) 7.5" in 357 mag. No mods, she shoots to fine as she is. Hammer mounted firing pin and all. I was using a buddies winchester pump shotgun for a shotgun, looks like I will have to find my own as he gave up on cowboy shooting. Thinking about a Stoeger coach gun in 20 guage if I can ever find one. Would eventually like to have a good 30-30 octagonal barreled rifle, and a good 45-70 falling block. Not to mention a few derringers, and I really would like a couple of open top .44s. GoodOlBoy

Rugar Vaquero's in 45 lc. Puma 45 LC lever rifle. No shotgun yet.
What is a poor mans trigger job and how does it help mine seems to pull okay. But I am slow and just learning. Do you reload in 45 LC and if so what do you use for powder and how much?

The above link is to the original description of the poor man's (or poorboys) trigger job. Simple quick no grief. Yes I reload 45 colt, (Or more specifically dad does most of it) BUT not for cowboy action. Our reloads are hunting reloads. My cowboy shells I buy from Art Collins at Collins Cartridge Company http://www.cccammo.com $145 for a case of 500 cowboy loads is HARD to beat in 45 LC. (BTW IF ANY of our sponsors sell cowboy ammo and read this PLEASE let me know. I ALWAYS want to support our sponsors first.) Powder's and loads for our hunting rounds vary. If you send a PM to bulletpusher dad is alway happy to help, he will also USUALLY respond in the reloading forum. GoodOlBoy
