vincent Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Well after reading spook's thread about his revolver reloads, I feel humbled. However for me this is still a nice accomplishment. Last week while practicing reloads at 7 yards - 2, reload, 2 with my STI Limited gun, I hit quite a few 1.0x reloads and then finally a 0.99. I stopped on that one for the day. I have also been practicing my splits and have gotten down to 0.12 so far. I shot quite a few 0.13's during the reload practice that day. I'm taking ownership of the speed and making it part of my normal shooting. I know I've read it a thousand times on the forums, but I'm finding it to be true again and again -> it's all about "the seeing", "the vision" or whatever you want to call it. Even on the 0.99 reload I glimpsed the sights for the shots, then the magwell, and then the sights again. I love it when a plan comes together!

BBQ Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Vincent, I am joining you in the under 1.00s reload club as of today. I have been doing reload at high 1.0X since couple weeks ago. Today, I was practicing in the rain for couple hours. At the very end of the section, I decide to make the 0.99s reload attemp again. I was very temping to have this skill ever since I start shooting. Shoot one then reload one at 5 yards. I start out with 1.1X and eventually get down to 1.08, 1.09 and 1.03, my personal best ever. I thought that's pretty good with a bad weather enviroment. I was about to call for the day. Some how my gut feeling tell me to do a couple more just to see if today is my day to break into the 1.00s barrier. I made two more 1.08 and 1.09. Then the magic number 0.98 show up on my timer. I wasn't sure if that's right, then I tried to duplicate the result. I could not do it again. There is something very intresting. My fresh mag is catch the one trying to come out and pushing it right back into the gun. (My left hand is faster than a wet mag coming out of a dirty gun ) The weird thing is that I am pushing it right at the base pad. That means I am perfectly line up the fresh one before it even get near the mag well . It happen three times in a role too. So I give up after that and I am extremely cold and wet at that time. I will diffinetly try this again next week end with clean gun and mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
