Why do some ranges not allow Wolf ammo?
This is a discussion on Wolf ammo? within the Defensive Ammunition & Ballistics forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Why do some ranges not allow Wolf ammo?...
Why do some ranges not allow Wolf ammo?
what I've heard is that it's a pain to separatethe brass & steel cases .
the ranges use/sell the brass for reloading
Although I now only go to one private range (which has no problem with steel casings), I've never encountered a problem at other ranges here in FL...

Long, long thread on this elsewhere...the response from someone who worked at a range is that it's dirty, doesn't combust cleanly, and leaves unspent powder downrange that occasionally bursts into flame.
Sounded good to me.

...man fights with his mind; the weapons are incidental.--Jeff Cooper
There is a reason they try and make small bullets act like big bullets--Glockmann10mm
Yes, it's Russian made and it's dirty ammo - but it's comparatively cheap and is a reasonable decent plinking ammo.
Some ranges claim to ban the rifle ammo because of the "bi-metal" bullets. These are a copper-jacketed mild steel bullet and ranges claim it damages their backstops. That may or may not be accurate. Pistol bullets are ordinary copper-jacketed lead and will no more damage a backstop than any US-made round.
IMHO, the real reason is messing with the steel cases when they sell the used cases to scrap metal dealers or used case dealers. In my opinion this is a non-issue because every scrap dealer I have dealt with runs everything over magnets to separate out steel from other materials.
Personally, if you get a good deal on the ammo, and it functions well in your particular gun, go for it. I just picked up 1K of .223 for $215 and 1K of .308 for $340, the latter is a stock item on Cabela's web site. If you live near a Cablea's, you can have almost anything in their catalog shipped to the store and you pay no shipping.

This may be true, although I have my doubts. If it does happen, I question the maintenance procedures at that range. They must never clean downrange from the firing points. I worked at a range years ago in Texas in exchange for range time and we swept downrange of the firing points at the end of every day.

Accuracy ALWAYS WINS! So carry what you can hit with.
If you find yourself in a fair fight your tactics stink.
The reason the range doesn't allow it is because Wolf ammo has steel cases, and it monkeys up their brass-scrapper's ability to weigh and pay for the range empties. From a user perspective, the Wolf steel-cased ammo is fine, and the soft steel cases can be reloaded just like brass. And, you can pick them up off the floor with a shop-magnet-on-a-handle without bending over...
Pistol I dont know about, rifle that is true. That said I know of some folks drilling out the berdan primers to use shotshell primers with reasonable success.
Not something I recommend or do personally mind you. I only run boxer primed brass through my guns so I can reload easily and by the rules

Wolf ammo is boxer primed, and perfectly reloadable (I'm referring to Wolf .45 ACP; can't vouch for any other Wolf cartridge). Just look in a spent case and you'll see one hole in the center. I've reloaded thousands of rounds of Wolf .45 ACP steel cases on a Dillon Square Deal and its carbide sizer. I actually prefer it to brass, in one way. The steel case seems to hold its sizing better during bullet seating that brass cases, which tend to bulge and become mis-shapen more than the steel cases. Drop a reloaded steel case in a cartridge gauge and you'll see that it goes in and out easier, and has not re-expanded as much during seating and crimping.

Last year I embarked on a big landscaping project - planting around the edges of the yard to provide privacy and something nicer than old fences to look at. Most of the things I planted are doing very well, the rambling and species roses in particular. Over the summer I decided to have a trellis installed so I could get the roses up higher and not train them directly onto the fence. The trellis is 80' long, and so far I have Rosa gentiliana at one end, Mme. Alfred Carriere a little past the middle, and a Lonicera ciliosa between them. I'm tempted now to plant a Yellow Lady Banks at the other end, which is a relatively shady corner with trees on two sides that the Lady could climb into. I'm debating this decision, I know that given time Mme. Alfred Carriere and Rosa gentiliana will cover 80' without a problem, but I also think that Lady Banks will probably use the trellis to get up into the trees behind it and therefore won't be competing for horizontal room too much. For those of you with greater experience, what do you think I should do? I don't want to harm the plants by cramming too many into a small space, but I really want to see trusses of buttery yellow blossoms hanging out of those trees. Thanks in advance! |

My yellow Lady Banks always wants to go UP, so I second your idea about planting it so that it can go up into the trees. It likes heat, so the closest you can put it to a Southern exposure would be good. Here is mine climbing up our house. Jackie |

Wow, gorgeous rose Jackie! That is exactly why I want to find a place to plant a yellow Lady Banks. I think I'll go ahead and plant one! |

A View of Offshore Drilling
Presidents request money for distant wars, the congress appropriates it, and this is said to show that The People support those wars. In a true democracy that would be true. But here and now it ain't necessarily so.
Sign from a recent protest of the oil spill |
Locally, the refrain is repeated like a litany at a religious service that we support the oil and gas industry, including offshore operations, that we need the products and jobs it generates, that we accept the risks inherent in it, and that there is no alternative. All bow their heads and mumble along with the memorized recitation—or seem to. Because the leaders of this chorus are loud, persistent, and powerful: the chamber of commerce, the politicians, the major antique media. Their opinions echo through all the public discourse, creating the illusion that The People support them. But it ain't necessarily so.
Many folks used to favor drilling for oil and gas offshore simply because they had never paid close attention to it. They just assumed that the companies and agencies engaged in these operations were competent and careful. Now that automatic trust is gone, replaced by questions and doubt if not accusations and fury. This shift in attitudes hasn't yet been quantified in polls nor revealed in elections, but it is real and will endure to some degree long after BP's runaway well is plugged or gushers dry.
Others would share these altered views, except for fears of finding themselves economically beached and stranded. They are incessantly told that other feasible energy options don't exist, so they tend to believe this: ending offshore drilling would strangle oil jobs and injure the entire economy by energy depletion.
But there are alternatives—necessary ones. Long before BP's reckless well erupted, the national Sierra Club opposed additional offshore drilling, not only because of the accidental hazards. Even without mishaps, such wells are dangerous because they perpetuate the devotion to burning fossil fuels and dumping the results into the atmosphere. The consequence is a changing climate.
If this continues the warming planet will become inhospitable to humans and the uncounted millions of other species sharing the earth with us, just as the oil slicks and plumes are making the gulf water toxic to its inhabitants. All forms of land and sea life in the region will be affected. Some will adjust but others, though innocent, will be sentenced to extinction.
Despite this the respectable oil fanatics demand an immediate resumption of deepwater drilling. In defense of such compulsions they wield faulty analogies. When a plane crashes, they say, aviation is not shut down. BP's oil volcano, however, is a much greater tragedy. Hundreds of passengers may die, grief and lawsuits may linger, but the other consequences of a crash are quick and concentrated where the plane comes down. The consequences of BP's vomiting well are far worse.
They spread cancerously across the region, in the water, on the land, in the air. They are having a cascading effect on all the life in those realms on a huge scale and at minute levels in unknown and unknowable ways. These damages will persist because the oil is seeping into places from which it can never be cleansed. All politicians, commentators, PR agents, and the like who chatter about fixing the gulf coast and making it better than before are dispensing fairy dust.
An honest assessment of the circumstances would acknowledge this and would resolve not to do anything—like a resumption of deepwater drilling—that carries the risk of magnifying these pernicious consequences. Instead, conservation and efficiency of use can save far more energy, easily and rapidly, than chancy offshore drilling will produce. And the national Sierra Club, among others, has researched practical, specific steps for weaning us from fossil fuels. It can be done, and it would generate more jobs than shutting offshore drilling would lose.
Locally, the Mobile Bay Sierra Club joined with many other groups in recent years opposing several schemes to locate liquefied natural gas import facilities here. Some of the offshore proposals would have casually killed the life in surrounding waters, and this threat gathered a stalwart coalition against such plans. The resistance won a redesign of the most looming LNG facility. The altered plan would be much less deadly.
All the opposition then evaporated—except Sierra's. At formal hearings and other events we continued speaking out against LNG imports. Like oil and coal, this gas is a fossil fuel whose combustion fallout fouls the air and warms the planet. So it continues our industrial society's destructive addiction rather than leading away from it.
The same outlook applies to oil. Even if the search and extraction of it can be made completely safe—and it cannot—burning immense amounts of oil is still a menace to the nurturing essentials of our sole planetary home.
Several years ago British Petroleum changed its name to BP and launched an ad campaign with a flowery logo and a claim that BP stood for Beyond Petroleum. Lately that phrase has been replaced by soothing crisis management ads. But assuming that Beyond Petroleum wasn't merely spin, now would be an ideal time for BP to prove it.
They have repeatedly pledged to fix the damage done by their renegade oil. This includes livelihoods lost in fishing and vacation communities and fish and wildlife habitats assaulted across the gulf coast. Much could heal if BP provided a multi-billion dollar start for development of renewable, sustainable energy systems in the places now ruined by the manic quest for oil. That would truly be a step Beyond Petroleum.

Update: BancorpSouth Overdraft Fee Settlement Delayed
By Kimberly Mirando
UPDATE: The BancorpSouth Overdraft Class Action Settlement has been terminated and the lawsuit dismissed.
Recent court orders in the BancorpSouth overdraft fee class action lawsuit settlement have delayed the claims filing process. As a result, Class Members that missed the September 13, 2012 deadline to file a claim may have the opportunity to have the deadline extended.
BancorpSouth reached a $1.75 million class action lawsuit settlement earlier this year to resolve allegations it improperly charged overdraft fees to checking customers by resequencing transaction to maximize the number of fees it could charge.
Class Members had until September 13, 2012 to file a claim to receive a refund from the BancorpSouth overdraft class action settlement. However, a new update on the Settlement Administrator's website shows a recent court order has stalled the process.
According to the Settlement Administrator:
Recently, a court order was entered by another federal court that appears to be the subject of an appeal. Until the order and appeal are resolved, the process of assisting class members in retrieving bank statements is on hold. Additionally, Epiq, as the Claims Administrator, will not be able to assist settlement class members in answering questions or assisting them in the filing of claims at this time. As additional information is received, court appointed Class Counsel, Emerson Poynter LLP, will ensure that additional information is provided here. For these reasons, the time deadlines on the left-hand side of this page may be extended as well.
The alleged appeal is bad news for those Class Members that filed a claim and are awaiting payment, but is good news for those who missed the deadline as they may have another opportunity to file.
Keep checking Top Class Actions for updates on the BancorpSouth Overdraft Fee Class Action Lawsuit Settlement as they unfold.

I use to have the mirena and it worked fine actually my anxiety wasn't like this at all, I think it has to do with the hormones I was given in the mirena. So I'm on yaz he sai it would take a month to really kick in, he also gave me a prescription of 10 colanzepan to take when needed for anxiety attacks, I really hope this helps, I also hope I don't gain on this medication. I wanna be happy and carefree again :)

I have an old 8x8 shed built on 4x6 skids which I am looking to replace. The purpose is to make a small workshop for wood working as well as stain-glass work area for my wife. I would like to make it big enough to get a car in there if I needed to.. we don't have a garage at the moment.
I can expand upto 10-12x20 without cutting any surrounding trees. My dilemma is I would do considerable root damage to the trees if I were to pour a slab. I was wondering if there was a method of constructing with metal skids(galvanized-steel, etc.) so it can take the weight of a car (4000lbs) without having to kill about 4-6 trees? |

20' deep is not going to leave much room for a large car or a truck. 10' wide won't leave room on either side much either, so your stuff would need to be easily moved around. don't worry about damage to teh roots from a slab, worry abotu damage to teh slab from teh roots. if it were me i would decide whether i wanted to use it as a garage and lose some trees, or keep the trees and park elsewhere. maybe you could put a carpot off teh front/side of it and just park teh car there? gotta have the room in 1 direction, as you must be able to drive up to it. |

I am planning on making a 2-carport on the side of the house. I still need a workshop to put all my tools (table saw, miter saw, band saw, belt sander, etc.) so I can use them. Currently all the big tools are in boxes and I take them out to do something and have to put them back afterwords. Its a PITA! Thats the reasoning behind trying to get rid of the tool shed and replacing it with a bigger workshop. I was then thinking that if it was big enough to get a car in, then I would be able to do any emergency repairs during the winter (I live in charlotte and the winter is only about 2 months long) The site is about 12 feet from the end of my driveway and I could drive the car on grass to get to it in case of an emergency. I am looking at metal and maybe structural concrete for a floor that might be able to handle a 4000lb car. I know I might have to come down to earth and realize that getting a car is asking for too much given the constraints but I at least want a stable-solid enough floor to handle the power tools and the vibrations. Thanks |

if you give up on the idea of getting a car in it, you can get a good 12x20 shed on skids for 1/3 the price or less of putting one in that would support a car. and it will handle the tools just fine. like i said, you cna put a carport off teh front of it if necessary. i have seen folks get the metal carports with sides and set them over gravel. this keeps you off teh ground, and provides decent protection from teh elements. or you could custom build one that perfectly matches the shed. your choice. |

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Recap Season Three of Buffy the Vampire Slayer ended with our title character (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and her friends defeating the demon Mayor (by utterly destroying their high school -- fortunately, this was after they'd already graduated), rogue Slayer Faith going into a coma after a brutal fight with Buffy, and Buffy's vampire boyfriend Angel (David Boreanaz) leaving for the streets of L.A. (and his own spin-off series on the WB). Season Four Season four seems to be big on the new relationships front. Buffy finally finds a human boyfriend in the seemingly-normal Riley Finn (Marc Blucas), Xander (Nicholas Brendon) ends up in a relationship with ex-demon Anya (Emma Caulfield), Willow (Alyson Hannigan) goes through a tough breakup with Oz (Seth Green) only to find love with fellow witch Tara (Amber Benson), and even stuffy old Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) has a romance with this chick Olivia who appears in like three episodes (one of them in a dream). There are even more changes ahead for our characters as well. Now that they've survived high school, they either have to find jobs (Xander) or start college (everyone else). Plus there are those weird military commandos wandering around town. While season four's definitely not one of my favourites, it does have its moments (most notably "Hush", one of the bestest Buffys ever). The Episodes The Freshman In the grand tradition of the previous premieres (well, except the first one), this episode gets the season off to a weak start. Buffy's having a tough time adjusting to college life, and as if things weren't bad enough, she runs into a group of vampires on campus and gets her ass kicked by their leader. Xander: Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans. Living Conditions Buffy's perky, Celine Dion/Cher-obssessed roommate Kathy is driving the Slayer insane -- quite literally, her friends fear. After collecting some of Kathy's toenails and witnessing their growth after they'd been cut!, Buffy comes to the conclusion that Kathy is evil, thus in need of a good being-killed. Willow: Giles. I just talked to Buffy and yeah, I think she's feeling a little crazy. No, not b!tchy crazy, more like homicidal maniac crazy. So I told her to come see you, 'k? The Harsh Light of Day Big Bad Spike (James Marsters) has returned to Sunnydale, and he's looking for the Gem of Amara, which will make any vampire who wears it invincible. Meanwhile, Buffy sleeps with this guy Parker, who turns evil immediately after (no, not Angelus evil, typical male evil. You decide which is worse), and Anya attempts to seduce Xander. Anya: I like you. You're funny and you're nicely shaped, and frankly it's ludicrous to have these interlocking bodies and not... interlock. Please remove your clothing now. Xander: And the amazing thing? Still more romantic than Faith. Fear, Itself Buffy and friends go to a Halloween frat party where someone's conjured up a demon who feeds on fear. The episode suffers a bit from being too similar to season one's "Nightmares", where everyone's nightmares, rather than fears, came to life, but it's worth it to see Giles in a sombrero, Oz as God, and Anya as that most terrifying of creatures, a bunny rabbit. (about Xander's pumpkin) Willow: It does appear to be mocking you with its eye holes. Oz: Yet it's nose hole seems sad and full of self-loathing. Beer Bad Buffy decides to get over Parker by drinking her troubles away. But it turns out this beer turns people into cavemen... or cavewomen... cavepeople? Lots of hooting and hollering and jumping around, but little redemption to be found. Wild at Heart Fellow werewolf Veruca tries to convince Oz to embrace his wolfiness, the two end up having hawt wolf sex, and Willow finds them the morning after. Seth Green's and Alyson Hannigan's powerful performances almost make up for guest Paige Moss, who rolls her head around a lot and tries to look sexy. Almost. Willow: I have wrong feelings about other guys sometimes, but I feel guilty and I flog and punish. Buffy: Exactly. I'm sure Oz is flogging and punishing himself... this is sounding wrong before I even finish. The Initiative Finally we get a clue as to what those commandos are up to. They're called the Initiative, Riley and Professor Walsh are part of the organization, and they hunt demons and experiment on them, as we find out when Spike is captured by them and manages to escape, now unable to kill or even hit people. (after Spike tries and fails to bite Willow) Spike: I don't understand. This sort of thing's never happened to me before. Willow: Maybe you were nervous. Spike: I felt all right when I started. Let's try again... Damn it! Willow: Maybe you're trying too hard. Doesn't this happen to every vampire? Spike: Not to me, it doesn't! Pangs It's Thanksgiving, which means a Native American spirit has come to avenge the wrongdoings against his people. But luckily, Angel's come to Sunnydale to protect Buffy. Of course, his form of protection involves letting everyone except Buffy know he's there and offering no information or help in battles. Don't get me wrong, I like Angel, just when there's actually a reason for him to be there. Something Blue Willow's still in some deep pain over Oz's departure (her and me both, baby), so she tries casting a spell to make her wishes come true. Unfortunately, something goes wrong, causing Giles to go blind, Xander to become a target for demons, and Buffy and Spike to get engaged. It's good to have a fun little episode like this every once in awhile. Buffy: Now, do you want to be William the Bloody or just Spike? Because either way it's gonna look majorly weird. Spike: Whereas the name Buffy gives it that touch of classic elegance. Hush A group of demons called the Gentlemen comes to town and steals everyone's voices, leaving them unable to speak (or scream). More than half of the episode is done in complete silence, and for a show that relies so much on its witty dialogue and pop-culture references, that could spell trouble. Fortunately, there's so much to love here -- the Gentlemen, who do indeed seem like fine, polite gentlemen, if it wasn't for that pesky being-evil thing; Giles' slideshow, complete with graphic bloody drawings; Xander blaming Spike for the loss of his voice; and the moment when the town's voices have been restored, and Buffy and Riley sit down for a talk, but just stare at each other in silence. If this isn't my favourite Buffy, it's at least in the top two. Doomed Buffy's freaking after her and Riley's secret identities have been revealed to each other, and to make things worse, some demons are trying to open the Hellmouth (yes, again). I loved seeing Spike in Xander's dorky clothes (and his bad American accent), but what the hell was up with Giles' voice in his first scene? He sounded like a dubbed in fanciful character on some children's show. Maybe I'm just crazy, but has nobody else really never noticed this? A New Man Giles' old pal (and current Chaos-worshiping mischief-maker) Ethan Rayne returns and turns Giles into a demon. Giles, feeling a bit out of the loop, is too embarrassed to let Buffy know what's going on and so instead seeks help from Spike. The transformation doesn't actually happen until a good way through the episode, but the slow buildup is worth it just to see Giles as Fyarl demon rush at Professor Walsh, his payback for her saying he wasn't a good male role model for Buffy. The I in Team Buffy follows Riley to the Initiative, neglecting her friends and asking lots of questions. Professor Walsh decides she's a threat to the mysterious project in room 314 and must be eliminated. Willow: Guess she's out with Riley. You know what it's like with a spanking new boyfriend. Anya (looking at Xander): Yes, we've enjoyed spanking. Goodbye Iowa After killing his creator, Professor Walsh, the human/demon/cyborg Adam, escape from the Initiative and goes on a killing spree. Buffy and friends hide out in Xander's basement, while Riley goes through withdrawal from the drugs the Initiative had been secretly hiding in his food. Willy: Hey! We got new rules here: no killing. This Year's Girl Faith finally wakes up from her coma, and it's about damn time. I mean, if Buffy was the one in the coma, they'd have her waking up in the next episode. But anyway, Faith goes to find Buffy with a device that will allow the two to switch bodies. This one takes awhile to get interesting, but that's how it usually is with these two-parter deals. Plus, less Adam and more Faith? Both good things. Buffy: Faith, these are innocent people. Faith: No such animal. Who Are You While Buffy in Faith's body is kidnapped by the Watchers Council, who want to take her back to England, Faith in Buffy's body is having a grand ol' time. She makes fun of Tara's stuttering (which is cool, cuz it gets really annoying), flirts with Spike, and even has sex with Riley. Both SMG and Eliza Dushku are excellent; pretending to be a character who's pretending to be another character has to be pretty tricky. I was also impressed with the way Faith's inner turmoil over what she's done was dealt with. Buffy: Oh, when I had psychic power I heard my mother think that you were like a stevedore during sex. Do you want me to continue? Giles: Actually I beg you to stop. Superstar Former nerd Jonathan is now a super cool guy who's perfect at everything he does. He's starred in The Matrix, he's a singer and basketball star, he fights demons like no one else can, and he even invented the Internet. Another of those filler episodes, but it's all in good fun, and Anya is hilarious. And you just gotta love the Jonathan-centered opening credits. Buffy: Anya, tell them about the alternate universes. Anya: Oh, okay. Um, say you really like shrimp a lot. Or we could say you don't like shrimp at all. "Blah, I wish there weren't any shrimp," you'd say to yourself... Where the Wild Things Are A textbook example of bad filler, this episode focuses on Buffy and Riley having sex all day and night, unleashing repressed sexual energy. The scene with Anya and Xander in the ice cream truck is a hoot, as is Giles performing at the Espresso Pump (and the gang's reactions), but overall, definitely not one of the series' better moments. (watching Giles sing) Xander: Um... could we go back to the haunted house? Because this is creeping me out. Tara: Does he do this a lot? Xander: Sure, every day the earth rotates backwards and the skies turn orange. New Moon Rising Oz finally returns to Sunnydale, and he's learned to control his werewolf tendencies. This is all well and good, until he finds out about Willow and Tara, causing him to change into the wolf and be carted away to the Initiative. You kinda know where it's going from the beginning, but it's always great to see Oz, no matter what the circumstances (even if they're gut-wrenchingly sad and painful circumstances). The Yoko Factor Spike, who's now working for Adam in the hopes of getting the behavior modification chip out of his head, works to try to split the Scooby Gang up. Angel comes to town to reconcile with Buffy after the events of the previous week's Angel, but ends up fighting with Riley. This is one of those rare cases where the first half of a two-parter is just as good, maybe better, than the second. Giles (about Adam): You never train with me anymore. He's gonna kick your ass. Primeval In order to defeat Adam, Buffy, Giles, Willow, and Xander perform a spell to create a sort of Super Buffy, who possesses qualities of all four of the gang. I thought the whole Super Buffy thing was cool, and it was great to see the gang begin to patch up their friendships after the damage Spike had done. In a nice little twist, season four doesn't end with the big two part boss battle -- there's another episode after this one. Willow: Oh, wonderful Xander! Buffy: You know we love you, right? Willow: We totally do. Xander: Oh god, we're gonna die, aren't we? Restless Now this is a weird one. Buffy, Giles, Willow, and Xander all have these strange dreams in which they are stalked by a mysterious primeval being. Some of the events foreshadow what is to come in season five, some were hilarious (the drama club's production of Death of a Salesman), and some were just plain strange (the Cheese Man). Very odd, but very good. And I loved Giles' song. Xander: Dinner is served, and my very own recipe. Willow: Ooh, you pushed the button on the microwave that says "popcorn"? Xander: Actually I pushed "defrost", but Joyce was there in the clinch. About the DVDs The DVD set contains six discs, all with the same crisp and clear audio and video we've seen on the other Buffy boxed sets, definitely a step up from my crappy VHS copies. Finally, a real live cast member actually shows up to do some commentary -- Seth Green (with creator Joss Whedon and writer Marti Noxon) on "Wild at Heart". There are also commentaries for "The Initiative," "Hush," "This Year's Girl," "Superstar," and "Restless," along with a couple featurettes, scripts, cast bios, and photo galleries. Sure, the extras are neat (some of 'em anyway), but the real treat is just having all these episodes together. Final Thoughts Like I said, this is one of the weaker seasons of Buffy, but weak Buffy still manages to kick the asses of just about every other TV show out there. As much as I hated Oz's departure, I did like the addition of Spike and Anya on a regular basis, and Riley wasn't quite the selfish bastard he'd turn out to be in season five. Plus, this is the last season without Buffy's brat kid sister Dawn, so it's something to be cherished. If you're new to the show, you might not want to start here, but don't worry, you'll end up buying all the seasons eventually. I have faith in you. More Buffy Season One Season Two Season Three

ATLANTIC CITY, NJA pair of undefeated middleweights, Patrick Majewski, of Atlantic City, and Latif Mundy, of North Philadelphia, meet in a scheduled eight-round contest Saturday evening, June 6, at Ballys Atlantic City. First fight 7.30 p.m. Topping the seven-bout card is a scheduled 10-round contest for the North American Boxing Association (NABA) welterweight title between champion Mike Jones, of North Philadelphia, and Larry Mosley, of Los Angeles, CA. Super bantamweights Teon Kennedy, of North Philadelphia, and Lucian Gonzalez, of Reading, PA, square off in the eight-round co-feature.. Majewski, 26, is originally from Poland. He has a pro record of 10-0, 7 K0s, including an impressive seventh-round stoppage of Jimmy Lubash, of Pittsburgh, PA, in his last fight April 24 at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. Mundy, also 26, is 8-0-1, 3 K0s. In his last fight Aug. 29 at the New Alhambra in South Philadelphia, Mundy appeared to have suffered his first defeat as a pro via close but unanimous decision against Rudy Cisneros, of Cicero, IL. However, the result was later changed to a No Contest when Cisneros failed a post-fight drug test. Majewski and Mundy originally were scheduled to box Feb. 27 at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, but Mundy withdrew due to personal reasons. The only foe common to both men is Maurice Williams, of Camden, NJ, who lost once to Majewski, twice to Mundy, all by decision.
