Nice info. I was on shotgun training session for 2 days and my M1 was piece of crap with slugs. On 50 meter POI was 20" low and right. I needed to aim left upper corner way pass the target to hit the target in the middle. Very hard to get popper down on 50m. My wife had the M2 version and hits were right in the middle on same distance with same slugs. Maybe I need to smack my M1 against the wood also or throw it on the nearest lake.

For young lady I suggest Benelli M2 with Comfortech stock. Barrel length 22" or 24" and caliber 12. My wife is aprox 5' 6" and weight is aprox 110 lbs Transition or recoil has never been problem with M2 24". M1 is different story. She used to shoot with M1 before but liked M2 more.

Yes, sorry but I'm not allowed to post them.

Thanks Mark I will do that. Our 4 load guy just did following. Option 3 start gun totally empty and start position normal standing stock touching body at hip level. From start signal Load 8 rounds and shoot 8 poppers down 5.87 sec. First popper down at 3.67 sec. Ps. He can do those 4 loads on run also. (not that fast of course)

True. We had SG match last weeked. He started with his normal SG on 100 points stage (the biggest one) which hold 19% of match points. Broke his firing pin on gun and got zero points on that stage. He borrowed some basic Russian Baikal which he had never shot and still ended 3rd place on the match! Shell holders are home made and he loads with strong hand. Ps. Mark I will need couple of those Twins loading caddies.

Those mags are not allowed on IPSC matches anymore due to new rule change beginning of 2012. IPSC open division has new rule which allows 14 rounds on tube fed and 10 rounds on box fed guns. Before the rule change mag capacity was not limited.

It seems that IPSC is going to different direction with 10 rd boxfed and 14 rd with tube fed restrictions and adding 1320mm length limit top of the whole thing.

Take .223 rem

I figured out that Kurt is coming (he was asking gun permit procedure on GV). Anyone else coming to this match from USA?

Aprox some seconds seconds.

Try this one, 8 rounds load from belt. Put your timers in use. Edit: Sorry guys I had to remove the video.

I never shoot matches because there is or is not a prize table. I compete because that's nice way to meet friends and make new ones. BTW on that match there will participate world best rifle shooters.

Behalf of Alex i will post some useful links. Suggested two hotels, they support the IPSC event with special rates: http://www.izvora.com http://www.hotelpremier-bg.com/index_en.php You should indicate "IPSC Shooting" :-) The city: http://www.velikoturnovo.info/index.php?Idi=2 http://www.veliko.co.uk/ History: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veliko_Tarnovo Sofia Airport: http://www.sofia-airport.bg/default.aspx Presentation video: Google maps info: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=43.116727,25.559982&spn=0.00455,0.01369&t=h&z=17&vpsrc=6&lci=com.panoramio.all Match video from the range:

This is so unfair. We need to pay 1300 euros for those Benelli M2's. (meaning double bucks) 26" version is good choice for 3gun and IPSC.

Adrie I just saw a video about one of our guys whom has developed new reloading tactic. 8 rounds in aprox. 2.x seconds. (No, no it's not box fed gun) Sorry, but I'm not going to reveal how he does it. You need to com to WS and watch him. I think WS organizer is not going to set up shoot off with empty gun at start up like in European Championship match.

Adrie We have 2 competitors in our family shooting with both rifle and SG. You know how much that will cost to travel both Championship matches, European and WS. That's the reason I won't shoot any other international matches this year except Estonia Open Rifle in July and perhaps Swedish/Nordic Championship Rifle Match. You reload looks good but you need to cut down one more second. Our fastest guys are loading with strong hand. If you are shooting on pre match on WS maybe we can shoot on same squad.

I'm not sure. There are guys from Finland coming to that match though.

I am not using the Chameleon belt but thats indeed one thing that could improve this product. Greetings Adrie Our guys are making couple secret items for the WS (based on the new IPSC rules). Wait and see.

Take Trapr Swonson with you also.

Wow! What loading method is he using? Chameleon Fabrics load 2 belt. Some of our guys are making those belts from aluminum to get them stiffer.

One of our guys is doing 8 round reload from beep to shot 3.5 sec. Sorry, no video on the internet.

1. Raine Peltokoski 2. Mika Riste 3. Petri Runtti

Try to contact Kimmo Iso-Tuisku, he did the weld job for our Benelli M2.

Weak hand and/or strong hand depending on your loading style.
