Thanks everyone!

Where is the best (most for the money) place to stay?
-
Steve's book helped my shooting a lot last year, I've kinda been slackin' on the dry fire, but plan to get back on it. Here's some of my times:
Drill 1: .7
2: .7
3: .65
4: .95
5: .75
6: 1.25
7: This drill doesn't work well for me so I don't do it, but when I used to do them I was doing around .65.
8: 4.0
9: 4.8
10: 5.2
11: 4.95
12: 6.05
13: 1.95
14: 2.15
15: 2.3
16: 3.55
17: .9
I don't practice most of the other drills very often.
All these times are with an Open gun. I'm classified Master.
-
Must have's: Koenig hammer, SV tri-glide trigger, EGW sear.
Nice to have's: Ed Brown or SV ambi safety, EGW slide stop, SV guide rod.
Barrels: I don't have a lot of experience to say, but all my Kart's shoot great.

i heard JJ won open, but that's all i have
JJ wins against Eric G?? Anyone got the scoop, the suspense is killing me
Anyone know how Phil did in Limited????
-
I'm guessing the poll Q is slightly poorly worded as implying people actually actively dislike the idea. You'd probably get the same number of responses if the poll answer was "I don't care, just send me something that works"
Yeah, you're right, I'll fix it.
-
I don't think anyone offers this service, but I'd like it if it wouldn't cost me extra. What do you guys think?
-
Picked up a similar trick reading the "Competitive AR 15". Pencil a diagonal line across your limited rifles front sight. Not so you will pick it up faster but so that you know when you are focusing on it.
That's an old, yet very effective, Highpower Rifle trick. Years ago when I shot Highpower I would employ that trick whenever I suspected my front sight focus was substandard. It provided enough of detail on the front sight to allow you to be certain you're focusing on it.
Kevin, no it doesn't matter which way you do it, in fact it doesn't even need to be diagonal, you can make a squiggly line if you like.

Thanks for the update.

That is one COOL looking blaster!!

Got the call today for a slot, I'm going

To get this thread back on topic I'd like to mention that Matt McLearn is up and running again
I just sent him all the parts he needs to complete a Caspian Limited gun for me. The wait time? Only 2-4 weeks!! His shop # is 928.468.8984. I've spoken to him on the phone a few times this week and find him to be very detail oriented. I'll report back on his work later...
-
Depends a lot on the time of year for me. In the winter maybe 1-4 times a week (combo of dry-fire and live fire), but in the summer I live fire 3-4 times a week and dry fire almost every day.
-
Erik Warren is the Democrat, right? That would make him the evil one, my vote is cast...
-
Now I'm even more confused, LOL. Which EriX did I meet at the Nats last year?
-
Here's another goal to shoot for. A clean El Prez at 25yds (all A's) in under 5sec. I want to keep everyone distracted....uhhh... I mean motivated.
good one.
-
EGW rocks!
-
I think this is related: This past season I noticed that my best stages (both time and HF) were the ones where I told myself that I wanted to shoot all A's; somehow by telling myself to shoot nothing but A's it caused a very relaxed state that was conducive to getting in the zone.
-
So Steve, you're using the Caspian open gun for this challenge, but Jake, as I recall, you shoot production...what are you using for this challenge?
-
I think Grauffel shot Limited in 2003 or something. I think he placed around 7th. Open is his domain.
Yeah, that's right, forgot about that...
-
Know what I'd like to see? Grauffel shooting Limited against Leatham and Tomasie, that would be cool.
-
My Unit 1 really likes Wolf Match Extra.
-
I have broke a bunch of EGW firing pin stops. I'm not sure if any of them made it past 20k. All crack in the bottem left side.
Jon,
That is not what I wanted to hear: all my guns now wear EGW FP stops...
-
FP stop of unknown manufacture broken after about 12k rounds and dry fired a zillion times. Actually a chunk came out of the FP stop but it was still functional.
IMR 7625 faster than 231 ?

I've always liked VV's burn chart. It lists 7625 as being between 320 & 330, but definetly slower than 231. Seems like more accurate info than IMR is putting out.
But hey, what do you care about 7625, you need to run the Limited gun so you can get the GM card![:D](//content.invisioncic.com/r270761/emoticons/default_biggrin.png)
