I have never shot any kind of pistol competition before, but today I shot the Steel Challenge at our range.
I used a Buckmark with a Primary Arms red dot and a S&W Model 41 with a J Point red dot. I switched back and forth and I found the 41 to point a little better for me.
I shot some real competitive times, but also shot some very poor ones. I wasn't consistent enough. I also decided a bigger red dot (bigger FOV), would help. I'll put an old 40MM Tasco Pro Point on the S&W 41 next time I shoot pistol.
I am going to shoot my .22 AR next month, and then we do no shoot the Steel Challenge again until February.
It was fun. I can see myself doing this a lot more.
