Try going to your dashboard. Should be showing Stage 1, click on the stage. A documents download will come up.

Check on PractiScore. The stages were on the sight last night.

If you are in Indy, Rafferty Custom is in Martinsville. Do a little research on here and you will be able to find some of his work.

Those two jobs, while not mutually exclusive, have different authority and responsibilities during a match.

The original person that stopped the shooter was the MD (7.1.7)? Or was it the RM?

That is one of Derek's Steel Challenge models. His major PF guns usually will not have cuts all the way through the slide.
Derek build a very good gun.

Sky Customs is located in north central KY.

The quality seems to be the same, I have a Sig Romeo on my Pro SX. The glass is as good if not better than the Romeo. Dot is sharp and bright with more adjustment. Really prefer the "shake awake" feature with FTP. Just ordered two of FTP Alpha 3 during the sale. I will be changing my guns to FTP.
I don't shoot much open anymore and was able to pick up the dot much more easily with the FTP. Weird angles and SH/WH the dot is easy to find compared
to the Romeo.

We have them on all three of my wives Brazos Pro SX. She had been using RTS2 6 moa. Currently has about 12 matches and twice that many practice sessions on her primary gun.
Zero issues so far. Still on the first battery in all three units. Do you have any specific concerns?
PS, the shipments from FastToys arrived 3-5 days ahead of their estimate.

Shmella is correct about VV N320, unless you are using it for Steel Challenge. In the VV powders with the BE comp you will be wanting 3N37, 3N38, or N105.
Your parts list looks good. You can check with the Brazos on the 1911 store for the slide.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is your pre-stage routine. Visualization will help with your "skittishness". When you are the in the hole shooter, start your stage visualization process. The more precise and vivid your images the better. Be very specific with the draw, see/feel the gun come out of the holster cleanly. Finger off the trigger, thumb on safety, safety still engaged
until you are ready to place your first shot. See the first shot go exactly were you want it on the first target. If there's movement before the first shot, again be very precise in the steps before the shot. Repeat for every target and array for the entire stage. If you have already run the stage 5, 6, 10 or 15 times in your head. It will help calm the anxiety.
Pick an experienced squad if you can. Have a great time returning to the sport and good luck.

Big Guy, whoever mounted the scope probably used Loctite. You will need to heat the screws to get the Loctite to break loose.
The two safest methods are to use a clean soldering iron placed on the bottom of the screw until the screw is hot. Or to heat
an Allen key and place in the screw/bolt until it is hot. The heat will help break down the Loctite enough to get the key to break loose.

I recently picked up a couple of thousand 9mm and 40SW. Mid South shooters supply had it on sale at a really
reasonable price for new brass. Going to load some today and chrono.

Fast Grip, good enough for Grauffel. Less of the white residue than Pro Grip.

Check out on-running.com, the cloudsurfer is very comfortable shoe. They also have off road/trail models, cloudventure, with a little less cushion. Second recommendation is Altra running. They offer trail running shoes with different levels of cushioning. Allowing you to pick your comfort level. Large toe box and zero drop with very good support. Have had good luck with both brands.

If it's the style with the inter changeable blade, then yes just unscrew the windage screw. Count the clicks to make it easier to rezero.
Careful when removing the screw and blade. There is a small spring on the windage screw that is easy to misplace.

Rescomp tube with Dawson SNL basepad , 3.75 mm milled from the spring recess. Old style Bolen 11 coil spring with the original Bolen follower. Holds 22 rds and is reliable. Have six setup with this combo, maybe use once a match. Only worth the expense if you are shooting major matches.
Not sure you can still buy the Rescomp tubes in the US.

Hop, looking at the weather. You may have picked the right month to miss.

99-48 tight squeeze.

Yes, four stages and classifier 99-41 up top. The shooting areas are decent, but the rest of the bays were very soft today. I would recommend boots or at least water proof shoes.
-
Yes, we put gravel in the shooting areas this morning. Have more gravel available should we need to fix any of them.

The Zig Racker uses a 0.375" 60-degree dovetail. Brazos sells a dovetail cutter on the website.
