Only in rare circumstances ( stages) is an iron sight gun is as fast as an open gun. It is very simple that target focus is naturally faster than sight focus. You can index an open gun the same as a limited gun on close targets.
What you are seeing I think is some stages simply limit the advantages of Open. I have shot hoser matches and said, " I could have done just as well with my Limited gun" I have never said, "I would have done better with my limited gun" .

I shot both, but with different platforms. Limited is definitely faster on close targets that are mostly hidden behind a no-shoot. The dot is 2" above the bore on my Open gun, and you definitely have to take that into account on close targets. Also, when you are racing past close targets, the dot is a distraction. On such targets I definitely liked my Limited gun better.
Splits on both guns are pretty close to the same. At targets 25 yards away and farther, the dot really helps. I can shoot two alphas much more quickly with the dot.
Most of the stages at the clubs I shoot at are set up to make absolutely sure you cannot pick two positions and spray the entire stage. You have to cover the same ground as everyone else, so there is no distinct advantage of one over the other.
Wuuuuut? So you are saying your splits on a 15 yd target with a limited gun are the same as with an Open gun?

The RTS2 was a good stop gap to the DPP when it worked. The DPP has been good to go out of the box and we didn't have to beta test it for Leupold. The DPP is brighter and more robust that the RTS2 will ever be. The problems do seem to finally be fixed with the RTS2 but at the chagrin of many customers who got their ass kicked by it for 2 years

Just and update. All DPP made it thought the entire season. 10's of thousands of rounds. Getting ready to put one on my MPX for PCC. I think it will be ideal there.

That is probably why he is shooting it. Stir up some interest so Sig can sell a few more guns.
Yeah...and get another title in a division that most of the top people won't be shooting.
Really? You do know Max is a "top people"

With a gun shooting major, I would NEVER go back to plastic. With 3 gun loads it might not matter

Apparently I have a mis-marked 15/16 socket. Bought another one and it is fine. Who woulda thunk.
Harbor Freight just isn't what it used to be, huh?
Snap On believe it or not.

I tried 115's and thought they were horrible. 121-125's were the most used bullet weight at Open nationals buy a HUGE margin
-
The Arredondo is probably the lowest due to the pad being thinner Too low I think IMO. There are only about 3 threads holding it in. That is why mine stripped out.

FYI.. These things are still kicking Still on the same battery for countless matches. Turn it on in the safe are and turn it off after the match

one machine is .92 the other is .94
One machine is 5 months old other is 15 years, LOL

Anyone know what size it is? Manual says 15/16" but its not. Not 1" either. I need to get a wrench dedicated for this.

Beaufort across the river from hilton head. Have been looking for some pistol and rifle and possibly 3gun matches in the state but there doesn't seem to be many options. Would love to know where you go to compete within a reasonable drive.

SC is FULL of matches. What do you consider a reasonable distance. You can literally shoot 8 or more matches a month.

Ah....You got the Power Choke version...
Yes sir, million mile motors, dropped into 100k mile trucks!Cummins ??
Yep. Motor is great. Wrapper sucks. 100k is quite optimistic in my experience.
So, so true. I have the opposite problem: a 2i006 Ford 6.0 diesel. Wrapper is perfect. Engine would be good only as ballast in a garbage barge.
Yep. I keep asking if it's possible to eventually swap a 7.4L in its place, and the mechanics keep saying no. If I ask enough of them, somebody will say what I want to hear... right?
You sure can put a Cummins in there.

124 over 10.2 3n38 is a nice load[/quote
That's one loud load !
I like to call it the RO Buffer Zone load.

That might be a little stretch. I have only heard of 2 total people with DPP's issues and one of them pixilated so the dot wasn't round. Nearly every RTS2 had multiple issues. I now have 5 DPPs on open guns and PCC rifles and have yet to have an issue in nearly 100k rounds in one year. I also know of at least 20 other DPPs being used without issue. So no, they are not a dud.
