The Official Status Update Thread: Part 95 - Braveheart

[chocktaw2]

If anyone is looking for something to do on 4-19, Alan from A&A Optics is hosting a one day Appleseed at his farm in Liberty, IN. Just south of Richmond. I will be there with my lovely Bride. Gonna get a patch this time.

Keep me posted as it gets closer.

Here's a question for the group. Does CCI make the .22 Blazer ammo???? I bought 2000 rounds recently from Cabelas and this is the 1st time I have used it. The base of the cartridge has the capital C on it like CCI Minimags and fires exactly the same???

 

[chocktaw2]

Can't help you CT2, I know nothing about 1911's.

The premier 1911 mechanic lives just 7 mi away. I'll drop it off tomorrow.

Hello nate

 

[SEIndSAM]

Keep me posted as it gets closer.

Will do, would love to see you there CT2. At this event you can use .22 or AR's.

Some Appleseeds are .22 only.

Yes. They are "CCI Blazer"

.22 would be cheaper than .223

Affirmative.

I used my AR at day 2 of the September Appleseed because the scope crapped out on my .22

I didn't see him.

Thanks, answers that question. I have never used them before, but since my favorite Federal loads are impossible to find I bought some. Seems to be good ammo.

He is lurking!!

IIRC, you got a new scope out of that deal?

Yep, My original Crossfire was discontinued, they gave me a nicer model as a replacement. 3x9x40BDC Crossfire II. I have it on my current Appleseed rig.

 

[GLOCKMAN23C]

I see you.

 

[chocktaw2]

I need to re-boot this thing, taking forever to load. BBS
