Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. But with the 3D text, how do you change perspective and still have the text follow the new camera position? I dont think you can, the text stays with the target(component) once attached, you can rotate the text once attached to the component or rotate the target and the text together by rotating the target. I normally keep a somewhat head on perstective so this doesn't cause much of a problem.
  2. When using 3D text fill in the text that you want and select "place" then drag it to the top of the target until it says "endpoint in group", it will take a little work to get the text to stand up and be above the target while still saying endpoint in group. Once you do this the text will stay with the target.
  3. Thats a good question, Ive only seen someone DQ'd for finger in the trigger guard once and it was during a reload. If we enforce it more I think you would see less AD's.
  4. Last summer I had the same thing happen. I was the RO and the shooter (right handed) was moving from right to left his hands were low and I didnt have a good view of the gun, I new he was close to the 180 but couldnt tell for shure so I did not stop him at this time. The scorekeeper was on the left side of the range and about 10ft behind the rear fault line. The shooter finished that array then moved down range around a wall and performed his reload doing so he had broke the 180, I stop him and explained why, while I was talking to the shooter the scorekeeper came up and said that he had also broken the 180 at the first wall, but did not say anything even though the gun was pointing at him. Once the shooter left, I informed the scorekeeper that he is an RO (certified or not) and if you see it call it. We do what we can to help new shooters and new RO's, safety first.
  5. I run zero's in my limited and find that the jhp's feed better then the fmj flat points, both run but the jhp's feel smoother. Thats with mags loaded to 20+
  6. Mark, When you move targets and especially fault lines make sure that you stay red/green axis (after you place a prop they will drop down if you dont move them staight forward, back, left, right not at an angle). If you only have to move a prop a short distance sometimes its beter to move it farther in the other direction and then back just to see the red/green lines. The other option is to do a copy/paste then the props can be move at any angle until you let go of them. Good luck at the inaugural CRC match, sorry I wont be able to make the first one. Matt
  7. Stuart, Parts that are different are: Frame Slide Trigger bar Firing pin Grips Magwell Mags The rest of the parts should interchange.
  8. It would help more if there were narration but... You seem to be switching between two windows, is that two instances of the program running or is there some way to have two files open at the same time? You can run two scketchup programs at once, I run one for props and one for the stage im designing. Windows 7 works awsome you can set both windows side by side and copy/paste from one to the other while still being able to see both.
  9. I am iffy on the wording on this one so please correct/shorten/suggest alternatives: Box Cars 12 Metric, 3 poppers, 5 plates Standing inside of shooting area, unloaded handgun placed unsupported on either barrel with slide forward or cylinder closed and hammer down and one magazine or speed loader on opposite barrel. Upon signal shooter must load the handgun from the magazine or speed loader on the barrel then engage targets as visible from within the shooting area. If you leave it (one magazine or speed loader on opposite barrel) then the shooter doesnt have to use it, since you didnt say they had to. How about this. Standing behind barrel b1 or b2, handgun is unloaded(rule8.1.3) on b1 or b2 with trigger guard centered on X, first loading device must come from opposite barrel. The only problem I see is that if its madetory to use the first loading device and I drop it in the dirt do I still have to use it? At what point have I used the (first loading device must come from barrel)?
  10. I drilled and tapped a hole through the top of the sight and put a set screw in mine, that fixed it for about 2 years. While shooting a match sunday I found that pin in the front had walked half way out, I think im just going to weld the POS solid, until henning comes up with a better one.
  11. Thats how I adjust mine. I try to go back as far as possible, but the front of the feed lips is the important part. Not sure what 38 mags need to be set at, .385 is where I try to keep my 40mags.
  12. If the feed lips are too wide it will allow the second round to sit too high and the breach could be hitting that second round because of it. OP said feed lips are at .415-.421 and .382 that sounds way wide to me, we are running 40cal mags at .380-.385 definitely no more then .390.
  13. Here's how I would look at it, there are only a handfull of companies producing a 10mm (mainly for liability and reliability reasons), youve purchased a fairly inexpensive 10mm and want it to last, spend the extra couple $ and a little time to ensure that happens. Don't think of it as Tanfoglio's aren't what they use to be, your running a much hotter load then a 9mm. If anything happens install "all" the factory parts and send it back for warranty, you shouldn't have any problems.

    High Def

    Walls are all 4' X 8', the wall on the left was set on the ground so that the shooter(s) had to shoot over it, these targets were set on the ground with lay down target stands, the wall in the middle was 2'off the ground and was used to block the shooters view of the targets, the wall to the right was 2'off the ground and has a port to shoot through these targets were place so that at least one target was only visible through the port and nowhere else.
