    How are we going to hurt you? - feed you too much - if you need a ride up, I can carpool from basspro
    in my wife's van.

    My back is tweaked,
    I didn't mean you would hurt me, at least not until we are meet up, but that some thing else.

    3-4 rear ended car wrecks, the last one totaled my ride,
    too much time with rucks-rockets- or radios etc on my back,
    older aged than before now, etc.....

    Sometime all I have to do is sneeze or cough real bad and pow, pinched nerve, bulged disc. you know the stuff that goes with wear and tear like the knees, hands, but my back , that stops me dead in my track some days.

    Good to hear, Pinscrews!

    Im excited about the gtg, I have made my decision on what to shoot, as long as load development cooperates. I hope to get lucky early on with it. For the wife, she is partial to a Smith, 6" 686, .357 with what I call her girl loads; 158g SWC over 3.5g of bullseye.
    For me, Im going with a Rem 788 in 44mag, 250g Keith bullet over powder TBD. If I cant make it work it will be a revolver of some sort.
    So I am curious as to what the others who plan to attend are shooting?

    I don't know about hardware - maybe puma 92 in 357 and revolver and a bag of 38's - maybe I can get my wife to come up then. Or could go 45-70 and make my eye water. Will just have to wait an see what strikes my fancy.

    If the replacement springs I ordered for my TC arrive, and I can get it to shoot, I will be bringing that with my .357 Harrett barrel. Otherwise, it will be my .40S&W Smith & Wesson Sigma. Sorry all my stuff is currently loaded with j-words. Though if things go right over the next week or two, I may be reloading .40 with cast. At the moment, I have not been able to get my hands on any cast boolits for my Harrett.

    We can carpool if you need a ride - this goes to any of you - can meet up at Bass Pro parking lot
    and take off from there - E-mail me you name and handle here and a phone number to reach you at for confirmation.

    I believe the "theme" was pistol calibers in handgun or rifle.
    I imagine anything will work though.

    If someone is In the West Valley of Phoenix, I can do some driving if they are wanting to carpool.

    PM me here and we can figure it out.

    I can't commit, as of yet, but things aren't looking good for me on this one. I will let you know if things change.

    Thanks.
