Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. I’ve mixed them without issue. I believe they will make you a custom color if you contact them.
  2. Thinking about speed (fast or slow) is counter productive. Memorize you stage plan then focus on calling your shots.
  3. Here the link to search for Steel Challenge clubs in your area: https://scsa.org/find-a-club You may need to expand your search perimeters to semilar matches like: Rimfire Challenge Shooting Association www.rimfirechallenge.org . There as also various "outlaw" steel matches out there.
  4. 2020 Rules increased the maximum weight for both production and Carry Optics: Yes, 59 oz. with optic and empty magazine inserted ref Appendix D4/D7
  5. You definitely want to maximize the capacity of your magazines through base pads and followers. Note that Grams followers will not lock the slide back when the mag is empty, but they give you one more round. Its a trade off. The extra capacity will give you greater flexibly in where you plan to conduct your reload and on some stages eliminate the need to reload. Once you've got this done, your as competitive as everyone else (gear wise).
  6. First time I worked a National, the CRO I paired up with on the stage taught me a lot. One thing was to look over the stage before the match starts for potential issues that could come up just like this. Then, with the RM's blessing, make the necessary adjustments. This protects the equity of the match.
  7. Sounds like your club has a very well developed new shooter program. I wish more did. Congrats on getting the first match under your belt. Keep up the analytical thought process and you'll progress fast. Get a hold of Steve Anderson's first book "refinement and Repetition" and his third book "Get to Work". I like his methodology on technical improvement and the mental game (Lanny Bashams's mental management system). Enjoy.
  8. 66.3741% 7.6449 HF If you stood as far right as possible at the start you barley see D zone on T5. I didn’t plan to set up hard for t5, but there I am. Doing just that.
  9. Shot the new classifiers last weekend. Here's HI Cost of Living (19-04). Your feedback is appreciated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlMVt2NrKqg
  10. If the Gen 3 fits your hand well, what is your motivation to go with the others?
  11. Here's another one for you. When you collect up your mags at the end of a stage, never put them back in the mag pouch. Keep them in your pocket or hand until you've reloaded them. Sucks to reload to a 3 round mag on the next stage. Been there.
  12. Glad you enjoyed it! Quick tip. If you can'T seat your mags reliably every time, load one less round in them. Also, in dry fire, use dummy rounds in your mags for weight and resistance when seating. Good luck on your journey.
  13. Hard to see much of your draw. In the second video, there is a very noticeable transition delay on the second target array. After you engage the low target, you took another site picture, as if deciding wither or not to engage the lower target again.
