New project/garage sale score
« on: January 21, 2010, 11:09:18 AM »
I hate garage sales.  I try to not stop at them with my wife.  It always ends up with more gardening related crap coming home.  However.....I found a slightly used T/C Black Diamond stainless .50 cal. for $100.  Couldn't pass it up.  Now I can't get to the range often enough!  This is cool!  Playing with 777 loose powder and some Powerbelts and CVA sabots.  Have some Barnes TMZ's coming.  Sure would be neat to draw Elk multiseason. :chuckle:
     Not enough days off to play with this!

Score. That's a great deal on one. Your hooked now. Try the Hornady 300 grn SST bullets.
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

You're crazy... I LOVE garage sales! I make a list and plan a route just about every weekend of the summer!

What a buy! I just got a 45cal T/C BD for Cougar, paid $275.

Side note: It shoots awesome if it's clean. Shooting loose pyrodex it's only clean for 3 - 5 shots. After that you're totally spitballin', even with sabots!

I can't pass them up either - you never know unless you stop.  I've picked up some killer deals on stuff, like craftsman tools, etc.  Pennies on the dollar.
