You're welcome.
The regional and state matches are. Not all of the monthly matches are sanctioned.
-
Here you go. http://www.chambersburgpistolandrifleclub.com/matches.html
We were shooting a regional and state match in Bedford VA but no more. Just monthly matches.
-
They did mention bringing it back at the awards dinner. We haven't had it in at least 10 years.
You should have made the trip down to Chambersburg last weekend. They put on a great match. Gary Valentino even made it. Not many shooters left in NY.
-
Postponed until September 1st.

You can shoot 9 x 23 in a Super barrel but I don't recommend it. Its obsolete and brass is difficult or impossible to find. I shot it for years and have a 95 gr. steel load if interested.
I'm still shooting it. No problems getting brass. I even get my brass handed back to me. Lol
-
My load runs the same.
A hand loaded round always shoots lower than a gun fed round.
I've found that the shorter OAL helps the temp sensitivity a considerable amount.
-
I noticed you stayed away from the 470 club this time.
What was the bullet, OAL and crimp on the rounds?
124pf is a little too close for me.
-
OAL with a Zero 115 is 1.220". This eliminates the temp sensitivity. Crimp is .477 to .478. Use NO MORE than 4.8 grains. I cannot stress this enough!! This load is right at the edge of the pressure curve.

I have received approval, from the match directors, to announce the East Coast Action Pistol Triple Cup Challenge.
Matches will be as follows:
Michigan Regional May 18, 2019
Pennsylvania Regional July 20, 2019
Virginia Regional September 28, 2019
Awards will be first, second and third in Open, Metallic and Production. A shooter must shoot all three matches to qualify. Awards will be presented after the Virginia regional awards in September.
As soon as I get the Virginia match documents finished, I'll post them also.

Shoot a club match or a regional. I know they shoot in Hutch. There's also a club in Bates City, MO. You'll get more enjoyment out of shooting those instead of Bianchi.
-
If it is a 1911 pattern pistol it has to have a grip safety. No ifs, ands or buts. Unless you want to shoot a Star!
-
NO!!!!!
Now I know you're nuts!!
-
These are the rings I use. They are the lowest rings I believe that are made. I was fortunate enough to be able to go to Midsouth and they let me check all the 30mm rings with a caliper.

... or find some brave soul with long arms who can consistently walk at 10 ft./sec. maybe?
I know you're joking but Vance Schmid had his wife pull a target with a rope so he could practice the mover.
-
I hear they have 91 guns so far.
Hope it doesn't rain!

Kevin,
Good to Know. BTW I have some 9x23 I will put in my pocket and bring to you in LA. you are the only one I know who shoots that stuff.
dcs
Thanks David.
-
Haven't seen any results yet.
I tried WSF many years ago. Just couldn't get the accuracy that I wanted.
David,
The temperature issue has been taken care of for quite some time now. Amazing what OAL can do. The only reason we get called to the chrono now is because the person running the chrono doesn't know that 9x23 can be fired in a super.

Doesn't look like it at this stage Kevin. But then he has a brain like a grass hopper; he could turn up on the day before the match.
Very true!
Well that stinks. Sorry to hear y'all won't be making the trip.
-
No Richard either??
-
You're not reading it correctly. There are National records for Metallic and Production.
You can look them up on NRA's webpage.
-
As far as I know, it's a registered match.
Good. See ya there.
-
I'll be there. Didn't make it last year.
10 and 15 yards are fired on AP1. 25, 35 and 50 feet are fired on the AP2 (aka pygmy target)
Turnout is usually between 10 and 15. Not many but we have a good time.
Come join us.
-
The original four events is fine for the main match. Championship round should reflect the sport of Action Pistol.
Hahahahaha!!!!! You're too funny. Better hope you can find the place without asking directions. We don't speak your English around here!!
It's well protected.
-
Damien called me a few weeks ago. He never mentioned it.
As you know, I don't have a dog in this fight but someone needs to get on the stick and let people know.
