Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Great thanks for all of the input, will get the corvette and see how it goes.
  2. I have a gift certificate for a Nordic comp, I can choose either the Tactical of Corvette comp, does anyone have any input on which is better? This is going on a light weight competition AR build in 223. 16in barrel, adj. gas, and a lightweight bcg, any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
  3. Not answering for Ben, but imo It Depends.At 7 yards, you can tolerate a lot more junk in your sight picture than at 25 yards. As you dry fire, you get more familiar with your sight movement in various situations. Then you go live fire, and correlate what you saw during dry fire with reality. "OK, the amount of sight movement I have been allowing at 10 yards still gets me an a-zone hit, but the amount of sight movement I have been allowing at 15 yards results in a wide c-zone or close d-zone hit, so I need to make some adjustments there." Then you go back to your dryfire, make the adjustment(s), perform many reps over a significant time period to burn in the adjustment(s), and then go back and live fire it again to confirm that you're doing it properly. If not, back to more reps / more time, maybe add in some coaching and / or video if you aren't "getting" it. Once you confirm you're doing things properly, up the speed in live fire until a bunch of things break, and now you have more stuff on which to focus in dry fire. Thank you. That makes sense, now I just need to make it out to the range to correlate everything!
  4. I made some with a buddies press. Have heard of some guys making them with wad, shot, and then manually crimping the shells, sounds like it would be very difficult but maybe worth a try.
  5. Have been doing this for a few weeks now and have already seen vast improvements. This helps! And really makes me push to be faster and achieve the par times he sets.
  6. Airsoft and lasers are a fun diversion, but the bottom line is that all the "response" you really need to have when you are doing home training is to see your sight wiggle (or not) during your training. Airsoft guns are ok, but they are a logistical hassle and when you start going really really fast the commonly available airsoft guns will not keep up. When you say "see your sight wiggle" are you saying we should avoid having any wiggle at all? Do you treat a wiggle as a miss? I have been dry firing pretty regularly now and still get some wiggle when I speed up. Thanks.
  7. Can you use that holster in tac ops and/or limited division? I haven't seen any rules saying you can't but haven't seen anyone running a race holster in those divisions.
  8. There is also a 15 minute dry fire program by Ben on this forum. It's free and has some really really great drills. I try to do that 3 times a week and then on the other days I grab my pistol and just shoot targets in my room for 5-10 minutes, don't even put my belt on or anything.
  9. Before I bought anything I went to a couple of matches and talked to multiple people about the gear they run. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful. Especially if you help their squad tape/reset. After the first one I went to I was able to stay after and try on and shoot my buddy's gear and see what I like/don't like.
  10. Great proof that shooting on move is faster than getting into one position and shooting it all from there, I am often tempted to do that when planning stages.
  11. Thanks for the drill. will be doing this next time I go to the range, really need to work on getting the cadence down.
  12. Thanks for the videos, I have been looking for drills to do when I go to the range. Can find tons of dry fire routines but not as many live fire.
  13. New comp-tac mag holder. Retention is good and they kind of pop out easily. Also bullets can face either direction. And is adjustable for cant.
  14. How do you like the Taccom 8up shell caddies? It can hold only 2 correct? Sometimes I only load 2 from my quads. Thanks in advance.
  15. I ordered a safariland one for my dad for Christmas. We can check it out before I give it to him.. And try to make one like it with kydex
