Linebaugh coming to Texas
Is anybody else going to Borger, TX for the Linebaugh seminar?
Lots of big-bore shooting, and a good get together.

P.S. I'm packing my 45 RedHawk, 629, Marlin 1895 (though I got no ammo), 357 SP-101, and some others. I want to try my scoped 22 at that 300 yard ringer this year too.

Borger is my home town (from grade 1 through year 2 of collecge) and it was always fun to go out shooting in the Canadian river breaks. We are in the process of moving to the farm and that + work is all there is time for this summer.

Brain,
I'm still up in the air, I may go but it depends on work. I probably won't know til the last minute. after getting rid of my FA the only big bore pistol I have left is my S&W 25-5 in 45 Colt. But I may come and bring some big bore rifles, and do some penetration testing.

Re: Linebaugh coming to Texas
Ricky;
I can solve your pistol shortage problem. I have some .44 mag guns that I never shoot anymore:
1. Ruger Super Blackhawk 7 1/2 " with Burris scope - very accurate for hunting or silouettes
2. Ruger autoloader carbine with peep sight - lots of fun and in VG condition
3. Taurus revolver with ported 4" barrel and Galco cross draw holster and 2" belt - good for driving and for the farm and ranch and very accurate and fun with .44 Special
Also, a NIB NRA Limited edition Colt King Cobra.357 Stainless Steel with black Colt grips - won it at a Friends of the NRA dinner some years back. Probably very good for heavy hunting loads.
You can buy any one of them or all of them so I can afford to go shoot a Cape Buffalo.
If not helpful, what am I?

Re: Linebaugh coming to Texas
I had some kin that live in and around Borger. E.O. and Vernice McGough live in Phillips and Duane and his wife Billy lived in Borger. Duane worked in the carbon black plant and E.O. drove a truck for Phillips Oil Company. That carbon black plant was a sight to see. It looked like "Hato's Inferno"!

Re: Linebaugh coming to Texas
Rangerider - When we moved to Borger we drove there in a Model A Ford (slowly) on H287 and could see the carbon black smoke from many miles away. At that time, the town was ringed with carbon plants. We boys stayed dirty most of the time from playing outside and the carbon black was not easy to get off.
Travis - do not know, but will be figgering on that. Heck, I was just going to give them to Ricky, but since he did not respond, that offer has expired.

Re: Linebaugh coming to Texas
I really enjoy these get togethers. Its the only chance I get to discuss this kind of shooting with a group of like-minded-people.
I might have a NIB 45 BlackHawk for sale, but then again I might keep it.
Mike from down Houston way (drove his motorcycle) sold a BlackHawk last year and methinks the guy turned it over to John for a going over right there on the spot.
I gained some affection for my 629 up there last year. Did reall well on that 100 yard plate.
Shooting Ronnie's 329 with full house loads was a thrill too!!

Re: Linebaugh coming to Texas
Man I'd love to go - but it's not going to work this year.
I have fond memories of that area -- my grandparents lived in Pamapa. My grandfather worked in a carbon black plant most of his life (Cabot).
Grandfather's family is from Alanreed, TX (Great-great Grandfather was the 1st sheriff of Gray Co.)
Anyhow -- spent lots of great summers running around that area seeing relatives, going fishing, etc.
