  1. 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

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. To get this thread back on topic I'd like to mention that Matt McLearn is up and running again :D 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...

  5. 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.
