RELAX! The biggest reason for screwing up a shot is over thinking the shot! LET IT HAPPEN. RELAX!

Took my Sister,Brother-In-Law, the BIL (12 year old) son and my Cousin to the range today. They all live in Kentucky in a suburb of Cincinnati. On the agenda: * Ruger 10/22 .ss caliber rifle (metallic sights) * Pardini .22 pistol (red-dot sight) * Marvel .22 conversion on a 1911 frame...

I'd like you opinion. I am working on a new version of nepistol.com. The new version is here: http://williamdutton.com/phpwebsite_1_5_2/index.php The current one is http://www.nepistol.com. I'd like some feedback on the site. Thanks.

What kind of shooting? If shooting bullseye, neither are very good. A marvel conversion a 1911 frame is good if you already have a 1911. If not, and money is tight. Then the ruger is ok. Another option could be a decent used high standard. If you really want to do well on relatively short...

I did pretty poorly except on the ball matches. I finished 97th out f the Presidents 100 pistol match and also shot a 263 in the team match which is a high at Perry for me.

I rest after each shot UNLESS the shot really felt great and the gun returned to center immediately after. If that happens, I'll squeeze off another. Otherwise, I don't see much benefit.

I know a pretty good smith that can build a gun for about $1400-$1500. PM for info.

I'm going. 7th year in a row.

Generally speaking, you can use whatever bullet that produces the best accuracy at 50 yards. It happens that semi wadcutter or the nosler/zero hollowpoints make for very good 50 yard loads depending on the powder used. If the centerfire is the 32, then wadcutter may be the only option and you...

I had the same problem using wolf ammo. I called Marvel and they suggested I try CCI. It works fine but I want to lighten the spring too... I prefer the wolf ammo for accuracy.

AGF: Do you live in southeastern MA? Whatever... its highly suspect that this law would hold up under judicial scrutiny. You need to contact your local gun owners political organization (in MA its GOAL) or the NRA.

Sweet. Nice work with the CF gun.

My left eye is dominant. I use a blocker over that eye and shoot right handed. If I am shooting iron sights, I use an iris like this: Without it I can't see crap.

Looks like you've been reading this thread. Good work on shooting well in practice. Keep practicing like its a match and the match will feel like practice.

Here's another tip: When first starting out, shoot iron sights. A red dot can be a bit distracting. Red Dots are designed for hunting so it is natural to focus on the target. The simplicity of the iron sights can help put focus on the alignment of the sights and trigger pull. If you've been...

I have a wilson combat frame mount. It mounts forward of the trigger guard. I'm not sure I would do that with my next pistol. It makes working with and cleaning the gun a lot harder.

Wayne: The Marvel conversion on a 1911 is a great package. I highly recommend it. Air pistol is a good way to train sight alignment and a bit of trigger control. I also highly recommend it but make sure you get a good quality one. Don't spend less than $400 for a good AP. I spent $600 for...

Wayne: Can you simply go to the Board of Directors meeting and request a clarification/change of the target rules? If you don't get satisfaction then go to the general members meeting. It seems ridiculous to me that you cannot use a cardboard backing to the target.

BTW: I am very pleased to see this thread get some attention. Many people of all experience and skill levels have something to add. Keep it up!

I sometimes use a 50 foot Timed/rapid fire target at 25 yards to force myself to focus on a smaller hold. I had a friend struggling with slowfire at 50 feet use an air pistol target instead. He was averaging around 75-85 in slowfire and when he took the AP target and overlayed it with the...
