BritinUSA Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Are they shooting steel at point blank range? I think the distance limit back then was 7 metres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sperman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 It looks like he's shooting at poppers from about 5 feet away. It must be an optical illusion due to the camera angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoops! Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Awesome find, obviously lead bullets in open guns . I think in 93 they only had lead bullets, right? Edited December 9, 2013 by Whoops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Awesome find, obviously lead bullets in open guns . I think in 93 they only had lead bullets, right? The min power factor back then was 175. So, figure 180 for a buffer so there was plenty of gas available! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 Awesome find, obviously lead bullets in open guns . I think in 93 they only had lead bullets, right? Prices for jacketed bullets were exorbitant back then as many of them came from USA and import duties were very high. I shot jacketed bullets at this match as did most of the UK team if I recall.

Whoops! Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Although I had nothing to do with them, I feel I should apologize for the high import duties. I'm sorry. In reality, the only person I was really watching when I said that was Angus Hobdell, talk about a smoke stack with every shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
