Great old Ross Seyfried article...

A post mentioning some old gun writers got me to thinking of one of my old favorites that got me interested in handgun hunting...

Wish I could find the article that goes with this picture. I remember reading it multiple times almost 30yrs ago...

That was a good one, he is by far my favorite writer. My favorite article he did was probably the Bob Milek vs. Ross Seyfried handgun hunt, which each one described what a ''real'' hunting handgun was. Bob was all about the single shot ''short'' rifles and Ross was talking big bore revolvers it's a classic!

Bob Milek was the one that influenced me to get my first XP (221 Fireball for rock chucks), but for me it was the revolvers that stuck & so did Ross' writing. I really enjoyed Peter Capstick at thattime & Ross was the Capstick of handguns in my eyes. I was also heavily involved in IPSC at that time & the fact that Ross was winning world titles with near stock guns resonated with me because I always shot my CC guns.

I think Bob hunted with revolvers to, he just did some amazing things with the single shots! Ross was awesome with whatever he wanted to use, 1911, revolver, rifle or typewriter!!I've slowly been trying to get every article he wrote and I'm getting there but it would great if still wrote on a regular basis

I have lots of articles by Milek including his Shooting Time special editions of Hunting with Handguns! I still read them over and over, but I am sure some of his writing at the kitchen table during long winters in Wyoming. They are always interesting reads just the same. He and Steve Herrett are the reason I have my TC's and JD Jones is why I like wildcatting and big boomers. Elmer Keith, Sheeter, Larry Kelly, Paco, Hal Swiggett, Larry Weishun and others have all greatly influenced the art we enjoy today. If shooting books are a sign of wealth, I am one of the richest!!

My buddy Fowler (he doesn't post much)

I'm in Gregg!

Please count me in also.

I'm in too.

I'm in. Let me know if this happens. I will get the money in the mail.

Mike

If someone has the means to email these articles to me I can upload them to a site where everyone can just go and download them. I use a document uploader that works quite well.

Greg, PM me if you wanna do it this way. I might be easier than copying it multiple times to multiple cd's.

Zac

Zac,

If I send you the disc can you do it?

I would love to have one as well, please let me know.

Joe W

that would work. pm sent

OK fellas, here is what gives. Those of you that have sent me the money will get their own disc-- unless you let me know right away.

Those of you that still want their own copy, send the money and and I will send you a disc.

In the meantime I am sending Zac a copy and he can let us know when he posts the articles.

Thanks for all the work Gregg!

Once I get the disc I'll upload the files and you can go to the link I provide and download them directly.

I won't have a link until the files are uploaded. I will make one big pdf with all combined and a bunch where they are all separated.

Thanks Gregg

I'm in also

Gents, I have the disc at my house. I am away but should be able to get it uploaded in the next 24-48 hrs. I will post links to do a direct download of the files after I get them uploaded.

Thanks to Gregg for making this possible.

Let me know if you guys have any issues. Those of you with the disc can double check and make sure I didn't leave any out. Just click the download icon on the top right of page.

Awesome job, Zac! Thank you!

Gregg

No problem Gregg. Some files are missing from my post. My dads computer has been on the fritz lately. Give me a day or two and I'll have them all up.

Vance, I remember seeing the Cape Buffalo story many years ago when it first was published. A great article. I love this old stuff. Thanks.

Thanks to both of you guys for making this possible!

You guys are awesome. I'm new here, and I remember reading most of those articles when they came to print.

Mike
