  1. In my very short competitive shooting career I have yet to do a transition exercise better than shooting a Steel Challenge match. My future transition drills will be better advised having been exposed to that type of match.

    Gunbug beat me to it. I did my first steel challenge two weeks ago and had to work transitions for practice. I can already see the improvement translating over into USPSA.

  2. New to competition shooting and was a little depressed to see I was a D class shooter. I've shot for years and thought I was "better than average". I'm shooting for C class by end of year.

  3. Good drill. I did the exact same drill both facing forward and turning around. I'm new to competition shooting but my par time was under 5 sec. I'll have to work in this during the week and I'll let you know how low I can get it

  4. I'm currently working out of Ben Stoeger's book. I think it's fantastic. It's not note cards, but it would likely fit in your range bag. I may check out Steve Anderson's new book at some point, but at this time I'm trying to adhere to Ben's whole training system he has out there.

    Here's his drills book, Skills and Drills: For the Practical Pistol Shooter

    I'm doing the same and they have cut my Par times by 30% in less than one month.

  5. had a 6 went to an 8. so there.

    Took some inspiration from your post and switched to 8. Much better!

    I also put on an Arrendondo sun shade cover. I had to modify it but it helped even more.

  6. I read in the forum on how to improve eye dominance. Done posts recommended putting tape on the non-dominant eye lens. I put a little dawn dish soap on my left lens to make it very slightly blurry and did dry fire practice for two weeks every day. I was having a lot of problems "finding my dot". After the dawn trick I have made dramatic improvement.

  7. I tumble all of my mags in a rotary tumbler with corn cob with the green colored jewelers rouge which is the correct color for stainless steel (available at harbor freight). I broke the rouge up into small pieces and tumbled for 24 hours. The mags come out with a mirror finish and my feed lip dimensions did not change.

  8. I put red colored hot glue from a glue gun and injected it through the primer hole. After it hardened I shaved it flat with a razor blade. Now I have snap caps that are easy to identify and the hot glue can be hit many times with the firing pin during dry fire. I also put orange nail polish in the jhp so I have two visual indicators. My friend also put a really heavy crimp as well. With the heavy crimp and hot glue the bullet doesn't move. I imaging silicone caulking could do the same thing as the glue but it would dent easily with firing pin strikes. Good luck. Doc
