hopefully this was a good deal...

Winchester TRGT127 Super Target 1-1/8 25Bx/10Cs 12 $78.66+$14.24sh= $92.90 delivered

that's less than what I'm paying for Estate Dove and Target Load (12ga, 2/75", 1oz, 7.5shot) over at Efingers ($9.99/25 +tx)

in Jan/Feb 2013 and into March a little, I was finding Federal Top Guns @ Dick's Sporting Goods in PA for $5.99/box.  They usually had a mixture of 7, 7 1/2, and 8 with a heavy concentration of 8.  Occasionally they had the pink shells, occasionally Red/White/Blue shells, sometimes just plain.  I got about 5-10 cases @ $5.99/box (this is outstanding price for one of the best "cheap shot" ammos for your guns.. $6*4= $24 per 100 or simpy $60 for the case/box.  ** AND THEN ** a few DSG employees were "honoring" the $5.99/box price on Remington Game Club boxes, we got about 6 cases of that (I think they "let" us take a case each , my father and I, 3 times) ... then I guess someone said, First off- the Remington is NOT $5.99 only the Federal- second off, we do not have *any more* $5.99 shells left, third off, you cannot keep buying cases at a time , 3 box max per person.

 

We probably put away 15-20 cases of both Federal and Remington 7 1/2 and mostly 8 shot away.  Unfortunately we blasted a bunch, because I myself had just got an 870 Tactical I spent a lot of time money and effort building up and my old man had his brand new Saiga 12.  So we enjoyed the fruits of the cheap shots and tried to save as much as we could for the future.

 

 

 

$60 a case is usually what I look for to buy, above it I'll pass but at $60 I will take a serious look.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
