  1. I have the HS503GU. It has circle dot with a 2moa dot and 65moa circle or can be switched from circle dot to just a plain 2moa dot in seconds. Some of my friends prefer the 6 or 8moa dots on some of the other sights for faster target acquisition but, I prefer the circle dot of the Holosun for fast target acquisition and a third of the weight of an Eotech! I have also never had an issue with the dot not being bright enough. To each his own but, for the money the Holosun circle dot is a great sight!

  2. Try Different magazines. It sounds as though the feed lips may be a little long and are not releasing the rear of the cartridge early enough for it to chamber properly. The length and/or shape of the feed lips (tapered, flared, etc.) will make a difference depending on what bullet you are running. Try RN bullets and see if that is different.

  3. Love my Versamax Tactical!! I run a Roulette Tactical +2 cap for Tac Ops and a +9 Nordic tube with +2 Roulette Cap for Open. Opened the loading port myself, had Jeff Cockrum weld the lifter and I installed competition spring package. I've ran about 4000 rounds through it and the only problem I've had has been the breaking of the carrier dog. 3 TIMES!! I finally replaced with Benelli parts and haven't had a problem since! Sure I've had the occasional failure to feed and/or failure to eject but I've seen the same problem with many other shotguns and I believe that it is either ammo or maintenance related.

    Hey Charles - What will be the max distance for rifle that we should expect to shoot?

  5. The folks at Freedom Munitions have announced that they will bring a "mini gun" to the June 21-22 Freedom Munitions Memorial Multi Gun Match. This match is being held at the Clinton House Plantation, Clinton SC...the match is being administered by Tarheel 3-Gun with Steve Wall as Range Master. For more info on the match, click HERE.

    Jansen Jones, Public Relations Counsel for Freedom Munitions stated, "We are very excited about having our own major match this year." Jones added, "The mini gun will be a non-scored portion of a stage in the match."

    Freedom Munitions has been a major backer of the sport of 3 gun, sponsoring several matches across the country, junior 3-gunners, the Texas A&M 3-Gun Team as well as a number of professional 3-gun competitors. Check the pro shooters out in this video clip: http://videos.freedommunitions.com/PlayVideo?domain=Freedom&video=197764135.mp4

    Tarheel 3-Gun is thrilled to be working with the folks at Freedom Munitions and we look forward to event. This match sold out in less than 40 minutes and has a rather deep waitlist.

    SWEEEEET!!!!!!

  6. The Versamax tactical is a great platform that does not need much modification to be competitive. i thought about sending mine to benny or Jeff C. but the cost seemed to outway the benefit, I removed the barrel clamp to improve slug accuracy and can now hit an 8" steel plate @ 50 yds consistantly. I opened and beveled the loading port myself, Jeff C. welded the lifter, a definite necessity when using load 2 or any other loading technique as far as that goes. I added a Matchsavers and will be adding a "roulette" +2 cap as soon as it gets here but, It has ran all ammunition that i have fed it, flawlessly, all year! It does not need any other mods. I thought about getting the bolt lightened or the trigger worked over but It runs as fast and accurate as any others out there and when i'm running it, after the buzzer rings, i never notice the trigger! I was told that i should replace the hammer and hammer spring with Benelli parts but i haven't seen the need yet. I have only had one light strike and i've run at least 750 rounds throught it. A friend has replaced those parts and has seen the same performance as i have. 1 light strike! It seems the more i ammo that i run through it the better and smoother it runs!! My Versamax is a WORKHORSE!!

  7. Last month at the Tennessee State Sectional I found myself pushing pretty hard through the stages and not doing that well. The last stage of the match, before the buzzer, I told myself "See the sights & shoot my speed". I won the stage! For a B class limited shooter, shooting with the best shooters in the State....WOW, I'm on to something here. This weekend i shot another local match that is a pretty big affair aound here. I started the match "shooting my speed" and was not doing too bad. As the match progressed i started pushing hard again and trying to burn through the stages! Not only was I missing targets but, I was also having huge mental errors throughout the stages. I'm not sure how to get my brain to realize that i don't need to "burn down" every stage but i like the idea of "pushing" during practice and falling back on the "subconsious" to get through the match. Now if i can just get this drilled into my thick skull!! Great Thread!!
