    I used to shoot 25.5 grains Varget under the 69s for the 200 yard stages of an Across the Course (Highpower) match.  This was in a 20", 7.7 twist barrel.  More accurate for me than 75s or 77s but did not buck the wind as well.  I also used Wolf Small Rifle Magnum primers but I don't know if those are even available anymore.

    Why magnum and not regular?

    I suppose fun is in the eye of the beholder.

    Squirting bullets has never really been that interesting or challenging in my opinion.

    If I wanted to be sloppy, I'd shoot 3gun.

    Good point. When I see a production shooter reload 2-3 times that’s what I think also. 

  3. There’s a couple guys in the Pa circle who do nothing but complain. They complain about certain clubs having “to much left handed leans so screw pcc” or “why do I have to retreat while shooting to my right then going to my left” Anytjing they can complain about, they do. 
     

    only funny thing is, THEY KEEP COMING BACK!  If you hate it so much, then leave. Get back in your car after checking out stages and leave. Wtf

  4. Sign me up! I love the aggressive texture also!  I have the evo2 and my grip is kinda wearing down.  It’s still tacky but not like it was brand new. I like his grips but his mag button doesn’t stick out far enough even with the extended Dawson button. Hopefully this changes cause he’s frame/grip combo is a great deal.

    Minor scoring on target makes the game far more interesting than major scoring.

    C zone is far too large relative to total target area to score 4 points per hit.

    That’s what makes major so much more fun. You can be a little more “sloppy” with your sight picture and not as refined like shooting CO.

    There was a point where STI began to notice that the prices being charged for custom 2011s were considerably higher than the prices it was charging.

     

    Reasonably, STI wants to bring its prices up somewhat from where they are, but not quite to custom prices. They know they are seen as the entry-level 2011, so they can't just raise prices. At least not easily. So, boom! The DVC is born. It's flashy, and the price is higher. Gradually, the old lines (Trubor, Edge, etc) are discontinued.

     

    People of course begin to notice that the guns are not really different from the old lines, and in fact may even be worse. Comps and slides are cracking. People still go to custom vendors. So the company thinks... another brand redesign. If competition shooters know the product isn't worth the new price, let's advertise to... tactical shooters! After all they're spending the prices we want on custom Glocks, we can get them to buy our guns! They're half plastic already!

     

    So they drop the Staccatos, marketed towards timmies. Enter the gradual phase-out of the DVC line.

    That’s sad cause I remember getting into the game and sti was everywhere. Now everyone has gone custom. You can pay an extra $1500 bucks and get a new gun with a metal grip. For limited that is.

    I fully expected the camel camel camel link to take me to some action shots of Kita. Bummed but interested in the book at a lower price point.
