    Drive by the sign every day.. it's mocking me and my impatience. :D
    I'm running low on Dragons Breath for the shotgun, and so far that's the only show I've been to in the past year that had it for a price I want to buy it at.

    Is that Dragons Breath really worth it?

    I think they are! :D There were 4 other people out with me when I touched a couple of them off, and everybody was impressed with the amount of sparks and the distance they traveled. I still have a couple left, and plan on designating someone as a cameraman next time they get brought out. Dusk/night would obviously be the best time to shoot them, but with the amount of fire these had I'm sure you could see it in the day as well.

    The ones I got have an orange Fiocchi hull with an orange shot card.
    I cut one open to see what they have, and I was VERY surprised to find that they are loaded with birdshot on top of the zirconium. Going to have to keep that in mind. The wad has 2 holes drilled in the rear section to allow the ignited powder to flash into the wad, igniting the zirconium blend. If I could find the blend they stick in there, I would make my own by the truckload. lol

    Now, the incendiary rounds I got were a waste. Its a slug with a bit of impact sensitive explosive on it, but unless you are shooting at gascans you'll not get anything more than the report of the shotgun. Thats if the explosive even goes off. It looks like the same stuff a sparkler is dipped in.

    Thanks. From the west is Jefferson Street the best route through town, or do you recommend Sycamore?

    If you can't find the location, you probably shouldn't be driving a car.

    That was a friendly warning to any others who may want to attend this show but don't live in the area, like me.

    It wasn't difficult to find, I'm just saying our GPS had the address wrong.
