So from browsing through the results of a search regarding PPC here on THR, we have some folks who shot at a a VERY high level in the sport. I'm just getting started in it, after a co-worker told me a match that is relatively local (in Texas anything less then 4 hours away is local) coming up soon. We've been practicing, but any tips folks can pass along I'd appreciate.
For what it matters, he's probably going to be shooting the new production division or stock semi-auto, and distinguished semi-auto; and I'm planning on shooting service revolver, distinguished revolver, and production. I'd like to at some point get into open-revolver but that's down the road.
Shooting the distinguished/production course of fire, it only goes back to the 25yd. I'm able to keep it together through 15, and usually am around 295-298 with 15x-20x. The barricade shooting at 25 is killing me though. Kneeling I can usually shoot clean or only drop a point or 2. Once it goes to L/R barricade it looks like someone started patterning a shotgun. I could probably shoot the RH barricade string better with one hand (actually I'm quiet sure I could). Reading the rules it looks like I don't have to actually be in contact with the barricade, I just have to shoot around it, and keep my feet behind the fault line. Does that sound right?
Thanks in advance,
