Newbie from NY
« on: December 02, 2009, 05:34:58 PM »
Wanted to say hello.  Love the outdoors and the shooting sports.  Been reloading for quite a while, and just got started casting recently.  Right in the middle of firearms season for deer right now.  Have been using a Ruger Blackhawk 45 Colt 5.5" for the last two years with success each year.  Maybe with some luck I can get into a contender in the near future.  30-30 sounds about right.  Thanks for having me.

This site is fantastic!  I've already gone and bought an Encore.  Hopefully will p/u within the next few weeks when paperwork clears.  There are a lot of fantastic guys here, I just don't want to go broke hanging out w/you guys.   :)
