Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Happened to me this weekend at the Indiana Sectional. Stage 10. Seated in chair, gun on the table. Sit down, adjust my ears, exhaling. Staring at the grip safety on the gun. Just staring it down. Focused. Only thing in my vision. Leaning forward in the chair, ready to pounce. Standby. This is it, my muscles tense just a little bit in preparation to leap forward. Beep! Off I go, hand flying to the gun, legs launching out of the chair, moving to the left of the table. And my eyes moving to the first target, right there. Gun in my hand.. Wait.. not in my hand. gun turning sideways.. 45 degrees to the right. Brain firing signals to my legs, stop!, momentum carrying me forward. Gun still rotating to the right. It' in my hand now, i get it pointed somewhat downrange, I'm staring at it. STOP! I freeze. Looking at the gun, well it's pointed uprange now. But I know what's coming. Unload show clear. Almost drop the gun getting it back in my holster. That would have sucked, but would have been icing on the cake. RO was more than gracious. The whole staff running the stage was extremely professional. I think they were expecting me to fight it more. I'm sure they were expecting it. Not necessary, I'll own it. I screwed up. Luckily it was the next to last stage. I did take about 5 minutes to put my stuff away, collect my thoughts, but I stayed to paste. Looking back, the 0.2 seconds I "gained" to get a look at that first target, cost me the match. Next time watch my hand all the way to the gun. Use both hands. Plenty of time to find the target after I have a grip.
  2. Try Ultimate Reloader. Lots of reviews and "how to" videos. http://ultimatereloader.com/
  3. Looking forward to it. Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. And a little wiki fu shows that I'm wrong. At least for Greenville. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_Air_Service. Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. There may be a government subsidy on the Greenville ticket. Some airports have (federal) subsidies to get the airlines to serve that airport. Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. With the compact base plates, the magazine fits easier in the palm of your hand. The stock (non-compact) base plates "stick out" the front a little (almost a half an inch) to match the profile of the pistol grip, but that extra tab makes the mags not lay flat. For $2 per mag its an easy upgrade, and makes reloads less of a fumble.
  7. I was at grafs today around 5 picking up some powder. Primer wise they were out of everything but LP and LR - $3.99/100 limit 1000. Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  8. Those are the best ones. Sometime the most simplest of statements in your podcasts just hit me like a ton of bricks. Lanny's book had the same feeling. Keep it up! Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. Are you at the point in your podcasting though, where "technique disappears and the ego merely watches things unfold?" ;-) Brian Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. Mostly testing the posting function right now.
  11. Yeah, get the RAM. Simple to install, and you can feel the click at the reset real easy. Definitely worth the $23.
  12. Anybody know the timer used in that video? Nice that it just keeps beeping without having to press the button.
