Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. True story. And if you think about going fast too the wheels will totally come off
  2. I don’t blame the guy for sharing. I would do the same thing if I had anything worthwhile to offer. I have shot a bunch of the 124 grain rn bullets and they have been great. Solid bullets, fast shipping, seems like good people. Eley or not I would endorse them.
  3. Ed Brown mags are always made by someone else. And it changes. Find out who made the specific mag and buy basepads for that. Meaning Checkmate, Metalform, etc.
  4. True story. Honestly, they could solve half the drama with mag length limits. Make it same as open. 50 round mags! Screw that. Better yet, everyone only gets 8. Make Single Stack Great Again!
  5. If it isn’t the follower, you might take the slide off to get a better view of the mag, mag release, etc. does the slide stop match the caliber? Meaning is it a 9mm slide stop?
  6. For me it has been too much of the stuff I hate offsetting the stuff I like. I used to to drive to the desert and find a quiet hillside. Over the last 10 years every nitwit, their halfwit brother and their mom have been shooting into the air like ISIS at a wedding. I cannot stand driving out their to find trash shooting morons in every corner of the desert. And drama. USPSA drama, PCC drama, range drama. Ain’t nobody got time for that. lastly, tendonitis. Screw that dirty hooker. When your mental game is on but your body doesn’t cooperate is really a downer. Rant off. Still better than work....
  7. Anyone else noticing the 90% or better mark is now more like 95% or better? Top shooters are now burning it down with all of the points too!
  8. For a rifle, I use whatever is around (mostly my range bag) but for pistol, I go freestyle. I SUCK with a rest. That and I figure I will be shooting freestyle anyway so why not sight into the same POA.
  9. You will reach a point where a Delta almost feels like a mike. Not from a points perspective but the point that you will only shoot them on accident and you will realize how close to a mike you were. Deltas are lucky misses. Also, understand the point math on a field course. It is probably close to mike=3 seconds. Don’t make it up if it takes longer than 3 seconds. Like you already left or the makeup would cause you other timing issues.
  10. I am 99% sure they do. I don't own any but that is what they were made for. I hold back from certain because of mags like that shit Wilson makes where the 8 rounders don't fit without filing.
  11. You will also see shooter size and weight come into play. 250lbs manages recoil a lot differently than 125. USPSA involves a lot of moving, leaning, squatting, bending, reaching, etc. You will find you rarely have an ideal shooting position. The trick is to understand how your body manages recoil in those positions and offset that recoil. That and having a grip like a gorilla. My 80% grip, where I am comfortable shooting an entire match, is someone elses 150%. Dry fire will help. Weights will help. Mountain biking helps. And then there are the Captains of Crush grippers. Google them and start lower than you think you should.
  12. If you bell in the powder drop, you save a station.
  13. Lee factory crimp makes removing the bell easy. Seat and crimp in separate stations.
  14. Think of that stage like this.... Draw to the first 8 Reload and RUN back to the spot you can engage the 8 on the left from Reload and run to where you can either shoot all eight on the right or the first two targets and two from the front Reload to the front and take steel, front paper, and the two remaining targets on the right. (7) the transitions, retreat reloads, and footwork on the left side are a time trap. You took reloads backing up and those transitions to save 2-3 running steps on the right
  15. On the first stage, it looks like you could have engaged the targets on the left while retreating and the ones on the right once you were on that side of the wall. Not sure if that was true or camera angle. If you could have, I would have done that and saved the retreat reload and transitions. I agree with the poster above shooting those targets on the move was slower. Especially for single stack. Post up, knock out 8, dash and reload to the next 8. Moving is a balance between speed, hits, risk of penalties, and reload management. The last video, middle position, get your stance wide in the place where you can see the targets by shifting your weight a bit. In all of the above, shoot at the right speed for the target. Wide open targets, let it eat. Zebra targets, aim. shoot as fast as you can make hits. Everything else, moving, reloading, running, do as fast as you can as time spent not shooting is wasted time.
