  1. I am loading 42-45gr Varget WLR primers Federal cases 2.80 AOL fire formed and neck sized Rem 700p LTR I am getting the following wear marks any suggestions I am under what the book says for the load, the bolt opens smoothly it close with a little more pressure than factory
  2. I'm around .16. I find its a good quick drill to do when I am slow to react to the buzzer. I do a few of these and my draw becomes slightly faster
  3. L-10 Points 40 Pen 0 Time 4.63 HF 8.6393
  4. I would suggest a S&W 1911 also. I use mine in L-10. I got the bone stock model because I was not sure what i wanted or needed. It has run well and without the high initial expense, I have been able to modify it to fit my needs as I learn
  5. My first mach was a few months ago, I'm hooked like its crack. My tips are go slow, watch your muzzle, don't worry about speed, ask questions Everyone is very helpful
  6. Hey Steve I'm hooked, no doubt about it. During the last match, I tried to change mags when ever I had to move and wouldn't have enough rounds for the next set of targets. I think one course, you engaged 3 targets moved then engaged 3 more. I am assuming that a mag change while moving is better than static, but what is the proper range edicate? only load 6 rounds or load full and drop a mag with rounds in it?
  7. Yes, Lots of help Thanks Back to practice some more travis is silly fast WOW
  8. I am new to USPSA shooting and have been practicing my reloads. I shot a quick movie because I thought it would be the easiest way for everyone to see what I was doing and give suggestions. From what I have read. I reload to low and move my head down as I bring the gun up. I do this on the draw also. Any tips would be great the movie is only 2.8 Mb so it should be fast to load, mayb faster than me www.walshimaging.com/image/drawreload.mov My reload movie.
  9. Do you start from surrender and then bring your thumb down to your navel, or are you starting from your stomach? I tried from concellment with a heavy winter jacket from surrender, but my hand end up in the inner pocket of the jacket most of the time
  10. Thanks for the suggestions Unfortunately, I think the .99, 98s were a fluke. I had done a bunch in a row and thought that was new standard. But I think I was getting lucky with point and shooting and not able to actually call the shot. last time at the range I couldn't break 1sec and was in the low to mid 1.2s for a called A shot . I think my problem was being tense and cold. It was freezing out with a good wind and I had a heavy sweater... blah blah blah, excuses, excuses... I tried to force myself to be fast and grabbed much to high, took a nice little chunk out of the hand So I decide not to beat my times, but to work on being very smooth and the speed will come back. I will put the timer aways for a bit. Thanks again,
  11. I recently started shooting with both eyes open. When I started shooting I tried both eyes, I'd see 2 of eveything, couldn't get anything to line up. I found that standing infront of a mirror with the gun pointed at my master eye reflection help me see the correct alignment and correct sight picture. Now I can shoot at close range with both eyes, at longer distances 50-100 yards it still difficult so I close one eyes
  12. I have found Snap-caps to be very helpfull. When I started shooting about 3 yrs ago, I had an aweful flinch. I could shoot a tight groups, but they would either be on target or low, left. I purchased some snap caps, doubled up on ears and practiced alot. my flinching, was not from the noise but the anticipation of having to control the gun. I fix it. I held on only enough to keep the gun from falling out of my hands and let the gun rise as much as it wants. didn't try to keep it on target after the shot. Then slowly adding more control. This taught me that I don't need to man handly the gun I would stop shooting for the day when I was shooting well, whether I still had time or ammo left. If I was shooting poorly, and I didn't see any improvement. I would either take a break or work on something else. I believe in quality practice not quantity. This is what has worked for me, I am still very much a noob, so YMMV
  13. I am starting from hands up in the surrender position. Thanks Mike
  14. Hi, I recently found this geat site and have spent sometime reading all the post and practicing. One of the issues I am having are the following: On my draw, As my hand is coming back, it sometimes will hit the back top of my slide, causing a delay and poor grip. Getting my elbow up higher on the way back doesn't seem natural. Should I try a draw were my hand goes outside and then in to the grip, or should I stay with coming down from the top? should I get a holster that drops further down. Currently I'm using a Comp-tac kydex with a HK p7 The good news is each time I go to the range, I knock off a few tenth on my draw time down to high .9s with hits on an 8" plate 21 feet and I'm start to be able to call me shot alittle better, thanks to the tips on this site So thanks Mike
