I had a long response to all of the criticisms. Then I deleted it.
Basically, If you want to shoot at a full treatment level two match, shoot in the primary match. Friday exists for the staff/ROs to be able to compete. Get in Sat-Sun on time or just don't shoot it. Overflow slots are a courtesy granted by the MD's. Don't bite the hand that feeds. Especially, as Ken points out, because they are VOLUNTEERS!
Maybe even try working a match or two. Hard work tends to change anyone's perception. I had a great time shooting Friday. After all, I was in great company, making noise and not at work. I even had a good time running shooters Sat-Sun. Hope we were professional and consistent enough to pass without getting into range nazi territory...

Just ordered one from Bud's. $1307 + transfer out the door. Can't wait for it to get here.

If you really want a set of Hear-Pro plugs I can have Brad send me the supplies to make them. I just moved from Birmingham to Keller, TX so I'm not that far away from Wichita Falls. PM me if you are interested.

I was going to get on of these, but the rail moves? Is this just 49ers fan handguard or everyones? My samson doesnt move at all
My 17" AP handguard does deflect with pressure AND it returns when the pressure is removed.

The muzzle blast, high operating pressures and expense of Open are not for me.
This is a completely bogus argument, unless you are competing at the grandmaster level.
Whatever gear you choose to run, you will be classified, and competing with others at your performance level.
I think you misunderstood the statement you quoted? Or quoted the wrong sentence?
I think he is saying that if he wants to shoot an M&P w/optic in Open then he's not at a disadvanage because he will classify and shoot against similar scoring competitors. However, that is assuming he never has shot open w/ a specalized open gun and is possibly classified above his skill level using the M&P. Doesn't need to be GM classification to have him competing against higher scoring shooters.

5 hour energy works great and doesn't give me the jitters. The O.N. Amino Energy is good too. I'm on my second jug of it and use it pre-workout. Never thought about using it for a match since it's got caffeine in it.

I went from an SJC to a Seekins Precision comp to save a little weight and avoid eating dirt. The SJC will be on my backup gun though. Shooting close to the ground with the SJC, especially with it rotated 90 degrees to get low, really kicks dirt back at you. If you aren't one to roll around on the ground while shooting your AR it shouldn't be an issue.

I would be surprised if it happened but S&W may have sent you a barrel that missed the step in production where the throat was cut. Have you inspected the start of the lands to see if they have been tapered at all? If that's the case, a picture and phone call may get a new barrel sent. My M&P has chambered most of the bullets you've mentioned @ 1.14-1.16.
Of course you could just stay the course and cut the throat as you have planned.

Good advise. I'm pretty tire I will not live in town. Maybe one town over.

I am a CPA. The job would be budget, forecasting and treasury director for an MLP.

Thanks guys! Nothing is final yet. They just told me to start considering it and they will put together a relocation package / offer. It would be a huge move for me personally and professionally. I just wanted to check on the important things first before giving it any real thought. As long as I can shoot on the weekends I know I'd be OK. Now to consider if I want to leave family and figure out how to care for my daughter during the summer without family to help.
Thanks again...

I've been asked to consider moving to Southlake, TX for work. Anyone know if there are nearby (1-2 hr drive) ranges that do USPSA and/or 3 gun?
-
Definitely interested.
-
I use a JP but am considering going to a Hiperfire after trying one out this weekend.

I've recently switched from a Titan to the Seekins comp. It feels smoother and has considerably less felt percussion for the shooter and especially for anyone on a bench near you and ROs.
It is also less than half the weight.
-
You can count on at least two of the Hear-Pro team to be there again. Hopefully a few more...

One more great match by the Rockcastle team. Nick, Nate, Gary, Trapr, Dale and all the stats ladies, great job. A special thanks is in order for how well this group of folks treats their volunteer ROs. My belly stayed full and and I had a place to sleep for free. Special thanks to Hear-Pro for the rockin' hearing protection. Not only the electronics I used for shooting and ROing but especially for the solid plugs I used to sleep in the same room with Chainsaw Harris.
If you haven't been to this match, do your best to make it next year. Without a doubt you will meet some of the best folks in the shooting sports.

I'm not a pro but I used either a AP Customs 4x4 or a Choate 6 shell caddy as far around my weak side as needed to carry some extras. Whether they were regular bird loads or extra slugs. Usually didn't plan for carrying extra buckshot.
It feels odd reaching around like a single stack shooter searching for that last mag but it is much quicker than going for the pocket reload.

I'm not sure what happened there. It wouldn't let me put text in with the quotes???
You can use Wifi hotspot or usb tethering with MiWi...

OK, so it sounds like I can do what I'm doing now with the I5 without extra cost. My bill is already $250/month, I think that's quite enough.
Well, my laptop doesn't have Bluetooth. I could get a dongleI am using MiWi on my jailbroke IPhone 5 without issues. The Bluetooth connection works best.

Not sure if you've looked, but the area on the bottom, side of the bolt that rides the frame rails had a small burr and was causing the same failure mode. Once I found it and filed it away everything has been running fine. Hope you get it figured out.
