Sees Sights

Sees Sights (6/11)

  1. Tk .040 with rp brass. I also use .040 rev supply with same rp headstamp because they can be hand loaded without a tool and are snug enough that they work fine for me. This cuts down on the admin time/prep...
  2. Better than what? There is load data for making major across a whole spectrum of bullet weights and powders. The king of such powders is 3n38 if your goal is gas volume. If you just want "full power" then just goto 357 magnum of which there are reams of wildcat loads available that are 'safe'.... Sorry i misread, sc and super case volume are close enough that it doesnt matter, the main thing is sc is rimless, so more BB's in a 170mm mag...
  3. I had video of him shooting but its missing from phone somehow, apparently the last evidence of mr demarchi shooting icore with a break actio and speed loaders is lost... Action shot though...
  4. If its accurate its totally fine. A luminary i was brought into shooting sports by, the rule was crimp until it tumbles then back off an 1/8th. He came to this shooting thousands of rounds of berrys 158's painstakingly in batches searching for the best process. He did very well at bianchi.
  5. No pin shoots around here, most of the stand and deliver off season stuff is plate racks in this area...
  6. Right, they are in those divisions because there are enough reg's to be recognized. One of them would show up with a revolver if enough other people did, guaranteed...
  7. Its not impossible. Smith did not have this gun at SHOT last week though... In the meeting a8 russ said he had been talking to revolver shooters in his area and they were in favor. The last rev shooters i am aware of in a8 are dave and james and i have my doubts that they are in favor of this. I haven't talked to dave in a minute and owe him a call anyways... Ruger didnt have any of the 8 shots either unless i missed them on the row, it is on good authority production is being setup to produce them again though.
  8. Board is changing already. 2 years ago this proposition simply would have passed on suggestion. Distinguished GM would also have passed already. Ben Berry causing discussion to pump breaks and stop changing things without member discussion is good(even tho he is the prod 15 proponent which is dumb). Not to derail this thread...
  9. Good question, probably a2 around rio? It used to be in a7 and a8, dave/josh/alec/me/dave and a few others would at least get enough entries for the division to be recognized. I don't think there has been enough in 5+ years now though since alec and josh quit and i gave up.
  10. I'm not either, but this thread is interesting... yes no(qualfied) as mike says, revolver is a spec miata, its mechanical and its all exposed, you have to work hard to get the most out of it. jay's post offer the same sentiment without the miata reference. no, it won't matter, but it does screw up points for IPSC team(probably) The last point is probably the one that matters the most at the bottom from a pure competition standpoint. I though it said in the USPSA mission statement or bylaws that the point of USPSA is to field competitors to IPSC world shoot. I went looking and could not find that statement anywhere, but for some reason I vividly remember reading something like that. It is the case though...and i fully get the argument that of the few thousand active uspsa members in any given year, only a fraction even know about IPSC, nevermind contention for a WS slot.
  11. damn, max is a monster, holy s#!t.
  12. so if i shoot better points slightly slower, I win. got it. when the HHF is lowish, maybe 6, somewhere around there, this does not hold, which at match like nationals is going to be more than half the match. At last nats, the winner went full ricky bobby speed to pull the win and he still had the 2nd most alphas. 5-10% advantage. Its not way less than for autos, its probably exactly the same. that's for sure cheers!
