cylindrically challenged Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I just looked at the NRA Action Pistol rules and I can't see any significant difference between the Production division and the Metallic sight division. But when I looked at this years Bianchi Cup results Sevigny (Production) did a lot worse than Leatham (Metallic sight). Why do the scores seem so much better in the Metallic sight division over the Production division? Is there really that much difference between the accuracy of the two divisions?

Alan550 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 The Metallic Sight class allows for longer barrels and therefore a longer sight radius. Also in Metallic you can shoot a 1911 and single-action first shot guns aren't allowed in Production class. Those are the primary differences but there are some minor differences as well. Metallic allows Bowmar Ribs, thumb rests, and "race type holsters", among others. Alan~^~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griz Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Prone pad in Metallic is a big help too IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 1 1/2" group at 50yards might help some. not too many out of the box production guns can do that. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
