  1. I'm looking at getting into shooting single stack and I need to buy a whole bunch. Does anyone have any suggestions? This caught my eye but is a little pricey for me:
  2. The guy who designs our courses makes you think. If you just shoot the course, you'll FTE. Simplified example. From position #1, you can see T1, T4, and T5. From position #2, you can see T1, T2, and T5. From position #3, you can see T3, T5, and T6. I can put my mind in the dumper for most stages but not this guy's. (And he sets up almost all of the stages within reasonable driving distances)
  3. 5.56 toolhead #1 has two resizing dies. I then run the cases through a Giraud case trimmer. I have another 5.56 toolhead (#2) that has all dies except for the resizing die.
  4. It happened again tonight. I had a plan. After I took my first shot - I didn't. My name is DyNo! and I have a problem with ballistic masturbation. I read the course description - walked through the stage - emulated shooting the stage with an "airgun" - and went through it in my mind. Freakin' flawless! When the buzzer went off - *BEEP* - NONE OF THAT **** HAPPENED. One one stage, when instructed to shoot two targets 6 times and all others twice, I shot three targets six times, shot the wrong ones according to my plan, and had to improvise from there to finish the course which added even more time. On another stage, I nearly FTE'd a target and had to accept Delta hits with some uncomfortable contortionist moves just because I was obsessed with shooting all the targets in my sight. If I could stick to my plan - I would be able to get better hits, take better sight pictures, and avoid doing all of this John Woo **** to shoot in my class. ( B ) In Brian Enos' book, he says you should be like a "cat waiting to hit the ball" or something to that effect. I am not the cat. I am the yappy chihuahua with ADD chasing the lasers on the ground... The only problem is that in a complex course - the laser is running through a maze with a lot of dead ends and it might be smarter not to chase it all the time. When I've asked - good shooters have told me that my problem is poor stage breakdown. I really have excellent stage breakdown skills - I just don't have the patience to use them when the timer goes off. If a stage isn't a hoser or, if it requires any more thought than a person in a persistent vegetative state has - I have a difficult time at shooting my best. How do I keep my common sense from ending up in the backstop with my lead once I pull the trigger on the "A" zone a few times? Since I now shoot production, I can no longer compensate for my "problem" by throwing gratuitous amounts of lead downrange without caring about how I do it.

  6. No worries it happens to everyone eventually. I put a bullet into the roof of an indoor range and broke the 180 on an outdoor range with a 270 degree backstop. It happens...
