first 1.3 shoot

[ras1986]

well this was the first year i didnt have a NYE show but like i said in a previous thread, i did make a 1.3 pickup. i picked up a case of 3 inch and 4 inch shells... just for fun. i only have 2 3 inch tubes and 2 4 inch tubes so i built 2 small racks for them yesterday morning. they arent much but they are very strong and stable. since i dont have many tubes i put visco into the leaders like dave showed in his shoot site videos and i hand lit these shells one at a time, this was a learning experience for me. every shell i made sure the tube was cold and had no lift cups stuck in the bottom. i never would have guessed that the concussion from a 4 inch shell would be so impressive at 40 feet away. what an experience, i suggest to anyone out there to get their 54... this stuff is extremely dangerous, but with the right brain, watching a few videos and knowing people in the business its not that bad. oh yeah... i had a permit and all that blah blah..... attached is a small video of the tubes and "stash". https://youtu.be/W0H3NStGnkM
