And so the Area 8 comments start.
Cmon Chris how could you NOT enjoy that match. They even highlighted the places to shoot with white targets all around.
Don't forget the super swinger. I'll bet if you weigh that target and check it's velocity it was making major.

I hope Rob bought that RO a couple beers.

Maybe we could get some Democrats congressmen to make the rules. They did pretty good on the assualt weapons.OUCH

Speed comes from getting from one target to the next. It only takes a couple hundredths more to make a C an A.

Yes at our clubs we have found that usually just shooting the steel and forgetting about the birds leads to a better score if there are no miss or failure to engage penalties. This is a problem with some stages and how they are scored.It reallly sucks to zero a stage like that with those penalties.

I have fun no matter how they are scoring me.
Of course if you don't hit the targets it won't be fun no matter how it's scored. You know you can be fast AND accurate (so I've been told
) Bill

DblTap "the overemphasis on accuracy is the problem"
Yes, we still need to hit those targets don't we.
Chris-"Everybody is going to throw a couple shots here and there."
Speak for yourself.

Who cares? If everybody is shooting .223 they are all getting scored the same it just makes accuracy a bit more important than a typical handgun stage.If you are shooting major you have enough problems with recoil,20rd mags and usually a gun that is a bit heavy.Some courses a major gun might be an advantage.I have seen one in 10years. It was a fixed time stage at the Miller. If I remember correctly Doug Koenig won it with a .223 (what doesn't he win).

The PASA range is GREAT. It is when you are on about the 3rd day in Quincy that you realize there is nothing to do.You either wander around the mall or drink.

Quote: from Erik Warren, So far I've only received a packet on things to do in Quincy.
That must be a mighty small packet.
They turn the street lights out at 9PM

Thanks Patrick. I have a McArthur ordered. He said he was about a month behind. Your experience with the JP is what I see also when shooting. It has been the best brake I have used so far.Hopefully the the "Coke Can" will do better.

bomar bmgl

Have you checked out EGW's buried Bomar setup? It is the cleanest I have seen.See it at http://www.geocities.com/davidwiz_2000/egw.html

Patrick do you have a phone # for McArthur? Gotta try a coke can.

"You want to get used to seeing the same thing everytime."
Oh it's like being married.
Seriously though, you can try cant or no cant and see what works best for you. You want the gun to recoil consistantly. I don't think I would crank the gun over too far.Holding the gun straight up seems a bit stronger grip wise.

No you have it all wrong. If you have squib rod with you you won't get a squib. I think it is the same force that makes the sun come out as you are stepping in the box right after you just switched to your clear glasses.
I use my squib rod to push the rag through my mags when I clean them.

If you don't talk to the other competitors how do you mess with their minds?

Oh don't forget the mainspring too. That will effect the whole cycling sight travel deal. You pretty much need to get an assortment of springs in the weight range that your gun needs. I have standards that I shoot for practice and whenever I change anything on my gun. It gives me a baseline and I know for sure if something helped or hurt. Just get a bunch of ammo and springs and spend half a day at the range testing different combos.
Bill

From what I have found (and I have a BIG box of springs) the sights will tell you the best spring. If the dot or sight tracks smoothly and returns to the same point you have got the right one.Of course if for some reason the gun doesn't function this goes out the window.

Dave it sounds like you are hooked.IPSC is pure adrenalin. The more matches you shoot the more you will realize (hopefully) what to look for in your walk through.You need to keep your movement to a minimum and look for the best place to engage the different targets and what order. Look at it from every angle. You will be surprised what you will sometimes find. Don't always do like the others.Find your own way if you think it will work better for you.The best thing to do is make every mistake possible and then you will know what not to do.I wish I could tell you how long that takes but I have been doing it for 15 years and I still find bonehead things to do now and then.

EGW resizing die
in non-Dillon Reloading Equipment
Posted
Kyle I beleive that info is for rifles. If EGW makes a die in .40 it is so you can use brass that has been shot in Glocks.Gets rid of the bulge.The 38 die would help when you pick up pieces of brass that has been shot in someone elses gun.I use a case pro. Expensive but it works great.
