I had the same experience as mtnbkr, high bands were HOT this past winter. High band conditions should improve as we get into fall.

I also use an EFHW for SOTA but mine does have a 30m link added (Anderson power poles w/ strain relief). It's nice to have 30m with no tuner for my MTR4B. The K6ARK EFHW kit is appealing, might have...
If I had to go to one pistol caliber it would be .38 Special, or .38/357, if I may.
I would choose S&W J-K-L-N frames or the Ruger version of LCR/SP/GP/RH in various configurations.
I've enjoyed reading through this thread. I was first licensed as a Technician in March 2020 and passed my General exam in September 2020. Got on HF in January 2021, and got into SOTA in March 2021....
Midway has a selection of CCI and Federal small and large pistol primers in stock this morning. Powder Valley has a bunch of popular pistol powders in stock.
I've used a 642-1 as a primary carry gun since 2013 because it's always on me. Use a Desantis Nemesis pocket holster or a Phlster City Special depending on situation and attire. I like shooting...

Yes, people still do trap. No real reason for it to come to mind other than it's a .22 centerfire (small bore, less pelt damage--at least with non-expanding). Not a trapper so not claiming any...
Thanks for posting this, Tokarev. My first thought upon seeing this was "trapper pistol." Happy New Year to all.
642-1 or 351C in a Desantis Nemesis or PHLster City Special.

Reading this thread inspired me to start working on 25 yard B8s this spring. I did four double-action groups with my 4.2" GP100 yesterday.

My grandfather has sworn by Buck 301s for decades. I have a nice GEC Northfield # 48 and a Buck 301 as well but the vast majority of the time I carry only a Victorinox Alox Cadet.
ETA: if you are...
This has been one of my grail guns for years. I've only had the opportunity to fire a 6 or 6.5" Model 27 so far. Appreciate the pictures!
I agree but can't take credit for the selection, it's simply what my friend's dad always used with the '06 when he taught us to reload. Just always stuck with it since then. :cool:

I've had lots of plateaus and climbs, without a single breakthrough moment. When I first got serious about shooting a handgun the only one I had was a S&W Model 10-5. I got some snap caps and focused...
Thanks for your thoughts on the 3" GP100. This gun has intrigued me since it was introduced especially since I love my 4" .357 that I bought new in 2014.
I have really enjoyed this thread. Over...
