I really miss getting to shoot. bullet prices too high, busy life and I think Ive lost that love and feeling. seems like I lost the focus of competitive shooting. I made (b class) and I feel like I have reached the top of my game. I guess I'm just not willing to put the time and training into being the best. but really who is the best? this game is suppost to b about FUN. I miss all the great guys I've met over the years. due to the economy, Im not running my drywall business anymore, and I just don't have money to play like I use to. suck!!! I hope one day I'll b back.

I fail to see ur problem. Ur just going to use more bullets. I wished my rifle had that problem. Ha!

Wow! I've been playin this game for a few years now and lately I've noticed my vision ain't what it use to b. I went to the eye dr. A couple of weeks ago and he says well now that ur 35 u need glasses. Tough to come to terms with, anyway I got my new specks and boom! I shot a match last night and got 1st in limited an 2nd overall! I hope this isn't a fluke. This was an Ipsc match and I just got bumped to b class just the other day. I think I only did well as the targets were close and none of the other good shooters were there. Sorry kurt. Of course he was shooting a revolver.

Thanks for the info, I can't wait to get started. I'll probly b doing most sizes in belevel base. Now all I have to do is figure out how to do moly coat. I've talked to a couple of other makes and it's a big secret. I have the gist , I just don't have an exact formula.

I'm suprised no one is commenting on this subject.

In cast lead bullets; what do u think is more popular? What do u like? Flat base bullets or beveled base bullets. What about tip shape? Round nose, flat point, rnfp, or wad cutter? Tell me what u think people will buy.

I know a box of .22s says they can fly 1-1/2 miles, but how far will they really fly? I wanna try some of the trick shots Ed McGivern use to do. I'm concerned about distance of how far a .22 will fly if u shoot at a 45 degree angle. Does anyone have scientific info? How do u figure distance times degree.

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't complaining. I'm just supprised it was so easy. And quick too! It only took like 3 hours, if felt like 5 mins to me.

Last week I went in for galbladder removal surgery and I gotta tell u, it's nothing. I was so nervous, but after getting into the prep room the anistesiolgist came in and gave me 2 shots of some kind of relaxer. The next thing I remember, I was waking up in the recovery room. I don't remember anything. U gotta love new technology. I'm sore now, but wow! What an experiance! I hope I have the energy for next months pistol match!

If you are an r.o., take charge of your squad! Remember who is in charge. If you were asked to be in charge of a squad, then your match director has faith in you and will back your decisions. Don't b afraid, step up and tell the what to do. Your position is like the teacher, if you do nothing then that's what gets done.

Sweet you guys are like the wikipedia of shooting! Thanks for the help

How many members are there in uspsa for Ipsc? I found that we only have 15,000. Is this all there are? Sass has over 75,000!!! I would like to think that we had more than that. Do you know???

I'm trying to study how black bullets is doing their bullet coating. I'm not sure if it is spayed on or if it's a powder or even a liquid. Anyone know their formula??
-
Yeah I think alot of open shooters wouldn't use it but I still might make them for those who would. Do you guys like the idea that u could order bullets with moly or lube to suit cowboy or Ipsc?
-
If I made cast lead bullets made with the 92-6-2 mix and had moly coat would that enterest u in buying even if it cost a couple more cents per bullet, would u buy it? It seems like everyone wants moly. Also if u shoot open with 38 super would u use it?
-
I shoot uspsa, and I use cast bullets. I can't believe no one else uses cast. Why not with the price being about half and cast being available. Do u think there is an advantage with jacketed? U know with a soft lube there is virtually no leading, if that's the issue. Please tell why do you not like cast?
-
I have some questions for all shooter who use cast bullets:
1) what caliber and weight in pistol round do u like best?
2) how many cast lead bullets do u buy and how often?
3) do u believe it's unsafe to shoot someone elses reloads? And would you?
4) if you were offered a ( good deal ) would you buy cast over jacketed?
5) what's a good price per lead bullet, if it was very good quality?
6) if you had someone meet you at a range or delivery over shipping through mail, would you be a repeat customer?
Thank you for your help

-
I can't belive u guys arnt swarming this post. Please let me know!

I'm looking into casting bullets on a large scale. What r u guys paying and how many do you buy at a time? I'd like to know what a single bullet lead breaks down too. Does it matter if I use straight soft lead vs hard or if I have to use additives like tin or animintum?
