That seems like a very difficult thing to try and enforce across a level playing field. -
2016 USPSA Multigun Nationals

Bring it. -
This is the same problem I have experienced with both of my versamaxes, I went down the polishing all the mating internal parts and that helped but did not totally get ride of the problem when the gun got a little dirty. What solved the problem was to change the action spring with either a stock Benelli spring or a wolf +25% rate one. Personally if I had to do it again I would start with the Benelli then only go to the higher rate wolf if necessary. Also you should chamfer the area near the extractor contacts the barrel to make sure it feeds properly.

For the record you are a excellent designer, a level of creativity i haven't seen in many.

With the exception of trimming it, why is a 2 head process needed? Trimming and final neck sizing are what makes it 2 head process, and I would highly advise against trying to skip the trimming process.

Motorized or hand-cranked 1050, or maybe a 650 with case feeder. This is the only way in my world, that and use Dillon luve

Damn it, I just finished the last primer tube of 308 ammo and start breaking the press down. Then I realize the powder hopper is empty and look at the 1050 bin full of ammo. S$%t Got about 100 rounds with no powder

Dillon 1050 crushing primers!

Adjust primer seating depth -
I never thought about trying that. But that might be the best way to keep me on track. I unless have my tacom quad load on my chest and I have some load 2's on my belt. I suppose if I fubared a shot I could just grab two from the belt, load one and toss the other. I have a 12 round tube, with 8+1 at the start I am wondering if on big stages I should just load 4 right from the start rather than plan a 8 round string then reload. That way I can count shots and a miss wont be as critical. I always have a 4 she'll caddie on my belt, so I have easy access for a shell or two if needed, otherwise I normally quad load. It is very easy to get flustered and try to rush, but your just screwing yourself more. Make a plan and if you have to adjust, keep it small, and do not try to make up the time, because you can't it's gone when you missed, so stop that. Just focus on shooting smooth, like your trying to balance a cup of water on your head, smoootth

I would pretty much put it like this, you need to fix the problem right after it occurs, so if you miss a shot and have to make it up, then load one shell in right away and you are right back on your original plan immediately. if it happens again on the same stage, just repeat the procedure. The fact of it is you made a small mistake and the goal is to keep the mistake as small as possible. After it happens keeping the error As small as possible is all you can.

You're right but sometimes company come around. But I don't expect it to happen this time.

A little follow up on my issues also, I sanded smooth and polished all the parts on the trigger lifter and she'll stop where they interact and gun runs now, but will still hang open when racking in the first shell. I also ordered the +25% power Benelli springs and plan on installing them in both my guns for a little extra insurance. I think the stock Remington ones are just plain too week to overcome all the friction in the action. Honestly I am little disappointed on a few details on the versamax from Remington, especially with regards to the shell latch, a stock gun that is so hard to load is just pitiful. But as I see it any new platform has its issues when it first starts out, but I hope Remington gets there QC issues figured out.

The Slower I Go, the Faster I Shoot
Mbauer67 replied to Mbauer67's topic in Little things I've Noticed
On this same topic of being smooth and seeing what you need to see, I came to a very abrupt realization the other day. There is a podcast called the three gun show, and they interviewed jerry miculek, and he said a few things during that interview that we're ah ha moments for me. Such as mental expectations and pressure Different types of focus And watching things happen versus trying to make them happen. -

I was asked to writes sentences of advice for new shooters, here is what I wrote, maybe someone else can benefit from it. When you are a new shooter there are a lot of things to think about, but one piece of advice I would give is to only shoot as fast as you can see. What this means is really focus on only putting accurate shots on target, if you are shooting very quickly at a pace that is above your skill level, you will have no idea where you are hitting on the target. The second is to be efficient at all times, the goal for any stage is to put rounds on target as fast as possible, so if one has to move between two targets arrays, do it fast, look for other targets to shoot while moving, do a reload, then have the rifle up on your shoulder and aimed at the target, ready to squeezed off a well aimed shot. Finally always remember it is 90% indian and 10% arrow.

What do you do when you travel?

Clear your mind and hit the gym hard. -
I have also used both the heavy and light piston with light birdshot loads and the gun has run flawless with both.

I had the exact same problem this weekend, with a fairly new gun, 5-600 rounds. So I'm very curious what you discover
