Do you think a couple tenths of a grain either way might help.
Only one way to find out, try it.
-
Different harmonics. I've had 2 different brands of 55 grain bullets consistently shoot 1 inch different point of impact. They were Nosler Ballistic Tips, and Hornady V Max.

To your squadmates, it's better to be a fast resetter than a fast shooter!
Not only to your squadmates, but to the R.O."s as well.
Honestly, go to every large match that interests you, you can afford, and have the equipment for. (You can buy more equipment if a match interests you.) You will learn more at larger matches than at most locals. The more you learn the better you can be.

This was an entertainment video, wasn't it? To me, the most efficient method would use something explosive to destroy the wall, then proceed through the space it existed. Barring that, option 1 seems to be the best, even for an old fart such as myself. I actually envision "the Bryan / Brian" just running over the damn thing.

If I didn't shoot indoors at all, I'd still be using black front, black rear. During the winter I shoot USPSA indoors, and the lighting is challenging to say the least, so, I use a green fiber Dawson front, black rear. Outdoors in good lighting black on black gives the best accuracy, for me.

The TTI bases fit Gen 3 Pmags, they say they will work on Gen 2, but my experience with them they don't.

Dillon makes carbide rifle dies for longevity. You still have to lube bottle neck cases. Not lubing can still result in stuck cases. This was told to me by a Dillon rep years ago. Pistol carbide dies don't require lube because they only use a short ring to size the case body.

Welcome! What are your interests and where do you shoot now?

GB is the only other one I"m familiar with. I think Shooters Source carries them.
-
Check that the screws that hold the grip on are tight. Put Loctite 242 on the screws.

Practiscore.

As one that doesn't really trust technology, I checked Practiscore in advance. I got my reply at 5:48 AM for my team.

I got rid of the foam, then wrapped bicycle handle bar wrap over strips of the same material. I built it up 3/8' inch or so.

Wish I could make that one this year.. Unfortunately it's not doable or me this time! Hopefully that one stays around...
I hope so too. I shot it in 2009.

+1. 8 shots needed. 9 in the gun. Aim hard or do a standing reload. Hopefully we'll see a few SS only matches in the future.
Western States Single Stack at Rio Salado.

Welcome! I don't shoot revolver, but, there are some very good shooters in that game on the forum.

just to update my most recent experience with fiocchi slugs, top slug in a staged shotgun empty chamber bolt closed got deformed while waiting for me to arrive and wouldnt chamber. it got very ovaled because there's nothing in the last 3/16" or so of the hull. once operational i was 1 for 1 so they shoot great. i havent had that problem with federal 1oz low recoils before but i've run them only a couple times. i may try some hot glue in the end of the fiocchi hull to hold it round and test for POI change
Dillon Precision carries B&P slugs by the box of 25. They are very accurate. I'd get a box and try them.

I never even considered zeroing like that. :facepalm: before 3 gun, bdc reticles were foreign to me. Definitely setting that up when I check my zero before the next match.

How are those for you? I looked at those, and they should be close for my reticle.

I zero my scope at 300 yards with the 300 yard mark, since that's as far as I have available. If I had a 400 yard range, I'd zero it the same way. The longer the distance you can zero at, the better.
-
With a 9 inch twist, the 68 or 69 grain bullets will work, Hornady 75 BTHP might work. I've been shooting either 55 VMax or 55 Nosler Ballistic Tips at Rocky Mountain 3 Gun since 2011, out to 550 yards.

can you not just re-chamber current barrel to 9mm?
No, the 38 Super is longer than the 9MM. The shoulder for the case mouth to locate on will not be cut with the reamer.

I figured for the price of them they were accurate, now have to rethink my 6.5 CM upper I plan on building for 1000 yard shots .
They have a .5 moa guarantee, it might be worth trying for the 6.5 CM.

I see no one is saying anything about ballistic advantage barrel, are they not any good? Just bought one for my 308 build.
It may not be chosen for a precision rifle rather than a 3 gun rifle.
