Today I went to my second CAS match. Was only able to shoot the pistol targets as I don't have a shotgun or a rifle. No matter. I shot one pistyol C & B and the other conversion. I shot Frontier Cartridge which allows C & B or Conversions using Bp. I loved it the C & B was a hoot. and I did 5 stages(25 shots on 3 cylinders) without a slowdown using RK's lube. I shot 26 shot with the Conversion and I grabbed the wrong box of ammo and shot SPG lubeed bullets in that pistol. I got thru all 5ive stages but it slowed way up the last cylinder full. I did use RK's lube on the pin and cylinder in the conversion.
All I did between C & B cylinders was wipe the cylinders and relube them with RK's Lube. C & B pistol was full of crap but it was soft fouling and did not hinder the operation of the pistol at all.
Last stage we shot 11 pistol shots with a reload of one cartridge on the clock. I , of course, shot the C & B pistol on the first of each stage and followed up with the conversion. worked great.
In 50 shots I missed only five and three of those were on the 4th stage with the C & B Pistol due to operator error. I had missed one up to stage 4 and I missed one on the5th stage and got a dreaded "P" too. It was a Nevada Sweep on 3 targets left to right, one each, the right to left on the first two. Dummy here drill the third target twice for the "P". We recovered a couplew of my bullets from the steel targets. I'll post the picture of those later this evening.
It was a great day and I won a raffle prize again today. A bag of 50 new 44 spcl. cases. No one shoots 44 Colt's so I grabbed the special cases for my PP loads.
Great day and RK, your lube works great!! Oh and I just shot 35 grn, ball over BP with lube over ball. Keeping to the basics. I may not permanently convert this last "58. This is way too much fun.
I was the only one shooting BP today.
