  1. Thanks. I'll check it out. I'll be up there next week. Maybe I'll be able to get to a match that weekend, if there are any over Labor Day.
  2. Thanks everyone. I'm not sure where I'll be living yet. I just know the job is in Beaver Falls. I'll probably live closer to Pittsburgh. The drive isn't that big a deal. I drive an hour to an hour and a half to matches now. Any other info would be appreciated.
  3. Moving to western PA for work. I heard a few clubs are shutting down. Any suggestions on where to live which has some good shooting? Pittsburgh is not out of the question at this point. Thanks.
  4. So the 200 people that registered aren't shooters? The 200 that got in are shooters indeed, and some very good ones at that. There are other shooters out there though who didn't have a chance to get in due to the way registration was handled. It's just my opinion. If the date and time registration was opening had been announced ahead of time, I wouldn't have one thing to say.
  5. I never said anything about a conspiracy, just that it was a crappy move to open registration in the early morning on a National holiday. Nothing can be said to change that. I think many would agree.
  6. I know it would have filled up quickly regardless of the day or time registration opened, that's not the point. All I'm saying is it's a holiday weekend, and very early. You completely shut out a lot of shooters from having an opportunity to register, which is pretty disappointing for a major match.

    Titegroup

    Thanks. I'll check it out.
  8. Does anyone know where to find Titegroup? I use it in my .40 reloads and can't find any. Thanks.
  9. I've been using 200 gr. Bayou Bullets loaded to 1.200 with 3.8 gr of Titegroup. PF 173 and very soft.

    New mags from Para

    I've contacted Para numerous times over the past 12 months to find out the status of when new mags would be available with no luck. No one knows anything, or they are unwilling to give any info. Has anyone heard anything at all?
  11. Buying only 1 is acceptable. I've done it myself before. They are sold by weight, not quantity.
  12. Better make sure you don't make her mad. They will all be partially empty. Hard to believe your wife loads your mags!
  13. I have one in my Para .40 that was installed in November. Have about 8,000 rounds through it with no issues.
  14. Heath bar is my fav. Never had it with chocolate ice cream. I'll try one tomorrow.
  15. Weber kettle with lump charcoal for burgers and steaks is the way to go. Cheap and easy. Glad no one was hurt.
  16. I've applied my rub up to a week ahead of time. That was a little long, but 48 hours seems to give the right flavor for me. If I don't have that long, I'll apply it and vac seal it.
  17. I think they even fly around boulders and hit the coyote in the backside occasionally.
  18. Performing for others approval is always more difficult than just performing and usually doesn't work out very well. You have to have the confidence in yourself and you abilities, weather at the GM level or the D level. Blocking out the outside influences and shooting each shot as you come to it is what you should strive for. Movie reference-in Bull Durham when Nuke was pitching and his dad was at the game filming it. Crash came out to the mound to find out what was wrong. Crash told Nuke his dad was as full of sh*t as anyone. Don't think just throw. Similar here. Don't think, just shoot.
  19. I like to prep all my gear when I have 2 shooters in front of me and then mentally go through the stage. When I'm on deck, I'll try to relax and start some deep breathing and calm both my mind and body. I'll walk through as the targets are being scored and go back to the start position. At make ready, I load up and take another deep breath and release all the tension in my body and stop thinking about anything, which is the hard part. Then hopefully the body takes over as rehearsed.
  20. Blazing Saddles. Mel Brooks does a great job of offending pretty much every race, religion and creed throughout.
