Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. We are planning to use Practiscore to score our steel match at Black Creek. We are running 4 Stages of falling and static steel (120 rounds) and have just under a 100 shooters in 4 squads. Black Creek Steel In April, I used an iPad to score the match from our paper score sheets with zero problems. Since I am in Iceland with an occasional extra hour or two on my hands, I decided to score the May match as a record, and by doing so, add any new shooters to the shooter database. I scored Stage 1 on the aforementioned iPad with zero problems. I then decided to score Stage 2 on my Android device (Samsung Galaxy S). I noticed that misses are not being registered even though they are scored. If I go back and edit, then the misses are picked up. Any ideas? Best regards from sunny Iceland, Jim Taylor
  2. Iggy There is not really an issue with 40 cal mags that cannot be solved by the sizing of brass and attention to OAL. The Henning mags will run very well in 40. Just pay attention to Cha-Lee's detailed account on how to deal with 40 cal issues. The 9mm mags are another story entirely. This design with rear spacers worked with everything I put in them including some really short factory stuff. Best regards, Jim
  3. Tested 9mm Tanfoglio mags with rear spacer today in my 9mm Limited. Gathered all the cat and dog ammo I could find in the range bags and garage. All ran flawlessly from fully loaded mags. Best regards, Jim Taylor
  4. EAA has them in stock at 3 for $75. You have to place an order to get them. We are having some weather issues here in VA for the next day or two. As soon as I can get to the range, I'll make a range report. If they don't run, I'll have them on sale. Best regards, Jim
  5. Two more photos. Best regards, Jim Taylor
  6. Here are a couple of photos of the large frame 9mm magazines from Tanfoglio and EAA. The chrome magazine came with my Limited gun. It runs without a problem, but it may be the only one that does. ;-) The new mags have spacers in the rear and a distinctly different transition from double stack to single stack. Also, if you have a Limited gun, you will need to change the base pads. I have not taken these to the range yet, so who knows if they will run. If not, Aaron Neal has the solution and I'll go down that road. Best regards, Jim Taylor
  7. Tape your index finger to your middle finger for dry fire and practice. I think you are holding your mouth right.....:-) Jim
  8. JP Rifles makes a great magwell for the Glock. Best regards, Jim Taylor Keflavik, Iceland
  9. Black Creek Steel is Saturday, March 13. 4 Stages, 72 rounds. Info at Black Creek Steel Best regards, Jim Taylor Black Creek Shooters Association Mechanicsville VA
  10. Well, it sure isn't "I, Sniper." If you noticed, Hunter was re-loading with his finger in the trigger guard during that show. Hard to take him seriously as a "gun expert" after seeing that. Jim
  11. The Black Creek Steel Match is canceled due to weather. Next match will be 13 March. Black Creek Steel Best regards, Jim Taylor
  12. Going off the previous claim of someone getting 1.5" at 50yds (which I don't believe for a number of reasons) it would make for a pretty inaccurate rifle. Heck, 1.5" at 100yds isn't very accurate for a rifle! Edit to add: The above was only meant to poke fun (as in ) at what seemed to be a silly post...nothing more, and it's not a swipe at Sig or the All Around. R, Gman: Oh ye of little faith!!! I've seen Jason shoot my Nowlin 9mm from prone at 50yds to a .78" group (6 shots). Get the ammo right and it will shoot even better. My 6" Springfield with Schuemann barrel (extensively worked on by Derrick)will shoot just over a .5" group at 50 yds. It is a pricey thing to get his kind of accuracy, but in Action Pistol it is worth it (I hope). Getting the right loads, etc. must not be overlooked, but accuracy is possible. Jason and I worked over a Buckmark and finally hit the combination of ammo(Green Tag)and gun to get under .5" at 50yds (10 shot group). Maybe you ought to shoot groups every now and then (Brian recommends this as a primary means to excellence). ;-) Best regards, Jim Taylor
  13. Eddie: Nope, just show up. We are open squadding and will hold registration open until 1130 or so. Bring some buddies, we'll have a good time. Best regards, Jim
  14. We are pleased to announce the inaugural Black Creek Steel Match in Mechanicsville VA on 13 February 2010. Details are available at www.blackcreeksteel.wordpress.com. Matches will consist of 4 to 8 stages of falling and static steel and are a shameless imitation of Rio Salado's Tuesday Night Steel matches. We will hold the match on the second Saturday of each month throughout the year. Our thanks to Rio Salado's Tuesday Night Steel team for the inspiration and guidance. You can sign up for email updates on the site. Best regards, Jim Taylor Black Creek Shooters Association
  15. Look in Google's 3D Warehouse. We have a bunch of props, targets, etc. there. If you have any questions, post them here or PM me. Best regards and Happy New Year!!! Jim Taylor bcidpa at gmail dot com
