Unless its super heavy, its just a timing thing That whole notion of shooting a Bill Drill and judging the spring from where the holes end up on the target is fundamentally flawed due to a failure to account for timing. I kind of doubt that he's got something as heavy as 20# in there, so... ETA - one of the really cool things about high speed vid is that it lets us actually see stuff like this vettman1 could also learn some things from comparing the video to his perception of the dot movement (ie, does he see it dip down past point of aim on each shot). Someday, I'll convince shred to come out to the range with me and bring his camera along... I've been curious about how I actually do some things, too... The spring is the standard light recoil spring that comes with a recoil master. I can see the dot move up and then down past the point of aim. I have no idea exactly what my splits are, but I'd figure when I'm shooting at the fastest rate they're somewhere between .14 and .2. That's where I usually am when I'm shooting fast, but it's only a guess so take it for what it's worth. If you look at some other videos that I've posted there is one of me shooting a 1911 in .45 and a buckmark pistol .22. The .45 dips as well. Probably because I'm over compensating for the recoil. Funny thing though, you don't see the .460 dip down... :-) of course my spit times are much longer when I'm shooting that. One last thing to note, Dan makes a top notch, quality gun and it's fun to see go slow. I think that is mostly because when you normally see Dan's guns, they're going so fast!

Ok, I did some editing so I wouldn't get so many complaints! :-) Here's the Bedell Here's the .460

I borrowed a friend's EX-F1 and took a video of me shooting my Bedell open gun at 600 frames per second. It's really cool to see the shell casings come out in a nice little line. No wonder my casings always end up in a nice little pile when shooting from one position. Enjoy! Bedell open gun You also might be interested in seeing me shoot my .460 in slow motion. It gives a whole new meaning to "open gun". (It does have a comp). S&W .460 Check out my hand/wrist when the round goes off. It looks worse that it feels.

I'm going and the guy that is coming with me is shooting in your squad.

I'm looking for someone from Iowa or Minnesota that will be going to Open/L-10 nationals in September to carpool with down to Tulsa. Anyone else going from around here?

Here's one of me letting some brass fly!

Check out a Tablet PC. I've had one for about 4 years now and would not go back to a regular laptop. Most of the faculty I work with also say the same thing. Gateway 155c and the new HP 2710 are the best on the market. I prefer the Gateway overall though. Just to warn you, these will run you more than $1100. Check through your school and see if they have any special pricing. Most have deals going with Dell, HP, or Gateway that can save you some money.

I've got to be honest, I didn't even notice her grip on the gun. I think I was distracted.

I have a vocal music performance and education degree. I was actually a vocal music teacher for 5 years.

I'd buy one of each if they were available!

Did you know that you can add OLN for $2 per month?

Heck, I was just looking at a ballistics calculator and it's still making major at 600 yards. That doesn't seem right, but when a 240 gr bullet is going 1850 fps at the muzzle... well you get the picture. My friend and I were joking about how his .44 magnum was going slower than mine with the same bullet weight at the muzzle compaired to mine at 100 yards.

I use H110 in my S&W .460 XVR (and yes it does make major) but have never used it in .38 super. Make sure you post how it turns out. BTW, my .460 still makes major at 200 yards!

Trust me. You're not missing anything.

Benny, Don't post them here. It is against forum rules. :-(
