Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. And I was afraid I was hi-jacking your thread. EDWARDSRAM2(looks good but just spouts false data) KERRYPURPLEHEARTRAM( nicks itself and then sends error messages for 30 years) CBSNEWSRAM( even with repeated queries, won't give the right answer) KERRYPLANFORIRAQRAM( all 0's)
  2. KERRYRAM (it's RAM-no it's ROM-no it's RAM.....) KERRYRAM2 ( 1s and 0s in every gate-at the same time) KERRYRAM3 (changes states at the refresh rate of 2ms) RATHERRAM (the data may not be correct, but it's fast) ALGORERAM ( after all, he invented it) EDWARDSRAM( sues your motherboard for his birth defect) TEDDYKENNEDYRAM( it'll call the next day after it crashes)

    Did y'all come out without any damage? My stepmom lives on the other side of the bay in Fairhope, I don't think she's been home yet. How bad were the storm surges in the Bay.

    Stay Insane

    Don't know how you did it, but evidently you tapped into the video cameras in the offices in my plant. No easy task, because they are on a separate system.
  5. Any married man could see that 14 should move RG into contention for American intellectual of the month.
  6. The top 10 reasons Slick Willy had to wait three days after checking into hospital. 10. Had to vet OR team- no Republicans. 9. The surgeon was playing golf on Sunday. 8. They had to find a surgeon that did microsurgery. 7. He kept hitting on the nurses- they were declining spots on OR team. 6. We didn't know he had a heart. 5. Had to find a surgeon with enough malpractice insurance to operate on a lawyer. 4. They had to find a doctor that did bleeding hearts (liberals). 3. There was a problem with his medical insurance- card was expired. 2. DNC had to meet to see if they could blame it on Bush. 1. It took the lawyers three days to agree on the meaning of has, as in Clinton has a heart problem.
  7. I found this in" the Set and maintaining it": "I’ve had this experience many times and have talked to other shooters who also have had it, that upon completion of an extremely successful course of fire, you cannot remember what thoughts you had. It’s a natural tendency to want to think back and know what you did or what you were thinking to control such a good performance, but it’s that lack of thoughts that produces that lack of memory. The lack of memory is the result of being in the set. By putting yourself in the most favorable condition to allow the ultimate expression of your capacity, that condition has very little to do with thought, so there is very little memory associated with it. So the bottom line really isn’t a bottom line; it’s that your attention always has to be attentive. It can never park itself in one place or get comfortable in one place, because that will only last for so long before the trick wears off. The desire to remember what we were thinking as we were performing impeccably, when in fact there is nothing to remember, imposes a sense of uncertainty or fear in the mind. Enter trust. Through experience, we must learn to trust that if we maintain a state of conscious awareness and simply witness what is actually happening, the aforementioned topics will manifest themselves to your capacity." What I believe is happening is you are letting your subconcious make the shot. By giving your concious mind something to do, you keep it busy, and let your highly trained, never forgets anything, subconcious make the shot. Coool!!!!
  8. I am new to the forum, the FNG for the vets, so I have a couple of questions that I have not seen covered. And I really didn't know where they fit. I tried the Index, but without a timer, but it feels a lot faster. I see why everybody sits at the feet of the master, what I have read is brilliant. I gotta read the book, can't wait for the movie. But anyway, the questions. 1. I see in several of these posts people that shoot 1911 grip frame angles talk about shooting a Glock. Wouldn't going back and forth from the 1911 to the steeper grip angle of the Glock violate the basic principle of the Index, using muscle memory to do most of the aiming? I can't do it. I see the whole top of the slide. 2. By tasking your concious mind with calling the shot, you are making the shot with your subconcious? 3. Why the IPSC/USPA animosity? We all have a lot of common ground, and some shooters shoot both sports.
  9. Guys: I'm new to the forum, but I have reloaded for many years. I try to tailor a crimp for a 1911 to fit the chamber of the gun. Take the barrel out, and try your bullet in the chamber. It should be perfectly even with the barrel extension. If it protrudes, crimp a little more. Most dies like the Lee are designed to make it difficult to over crimp.
  10. Taio: I believe that the 18 lb. spring would actually give you more rearward slide velocity. If your cases are dinged near the center from hitting the ejection port, I wouldn't go to the lighter spring. What I found on my 220 is that slower burning powder like AA#5 gives me more usable velocity without too much slide velocity. I use 8 grains with a 200 gr SWC and 7.5 (0.2 under the starting load) for a 230. I have been up to 8.5 gr.(right at 1000 fps) with the 200 gr HC before seeing the effects of too much slide velocity.
