Target focused shooting is better in most situations when extreme precision isn't necessary - a lot of people actually have accuracy improve because they learn to accept the wobble better rather than snatch the trigger right when they think they saw the sight picture they wanted.

would have been interesting to see two shot drills - curious if dot movement would have helped or hurt new guys on the follow ups.

Heavier projectiles are longer - so they have to use faster powders which require smaller charge weights to make pressure faster and keep powder volume down in the case. As a result - more of the powder in a short barrel gets burned off before exiting the muzzle so the performance loss from a...

that's like saying "Iron sights are superior because they don't fail - until they do". I've had just as many iron sights fail on me as I have optical sights. The count currently is 3 in either camp. Red dots generally give you enough runway with their failing battery heads up. If you're...

The Hellcat will fit the HS-407K and 507k without modification. Blue loctite and 15 in/lbs on a torque wrench is a good rule of thumb for mounting optics on pistols.

That's fine - it's not something that's going to affect a self defense scenario. Generally speaking when we optimize gear we do it for the stuff that matters - ability to shoot fast and accurately - optimizing the number of rounds that can be carried - optimizing for a solution that makes you...

Realistically - I think your fears are unfounded. When you have a legitimate malfunction that requires you to strip the mag the offending case is going to cause the magazine to hang up. The malfunctions you staged in class are not the same as you would encounter as an undercharged round...

Update - got a T Rex arms Ragnarok for IDPA - works fine. Paired it with a Tek-Lok mount and it does fine.

2nd for the Ragnarok. I use it for my competition holster for IDPA for the XDM Elite OSP. In USPSA I prefer the Guga Ribas NEO-GR.

beautiful piece.

for his pistol stuff I don't agree with keeping your shoulders tight. You're adding tension - it doesn't manage recoil at all - it just makes you more rigid so your platform is more stiff. he's combatting muzzle climb just fine - he's got a decent bit of wobble on the slide closing.

Managed to shoot a master classifier - I'm not fully settled in on the gun and need to develop confidence in my abilities on partials at medium to long distances so I left a bunch of time on the table. That cost me a bunch of time (probably 1-2 seconds per stage) - same thing on shooting on the...

If this is an issue - chamber the round. Pull the mag out - seat the next round fully - then lock the magazine back into the gun. I do this every time I load and make ready in competition - just to ensure that everything is going to go well. It's a pretty minor issue with a very easy work...

for up close shooting a dot is actually better - you just don't know how to use it yet. Even for "point shooting" you don't end up guiding the dot to aim with - you can observe where it lifts from on the target to know where you hit as the shot breaks before the bullet arrives. The benefit at...

I broke a DPP from a holster height drop. It's recoil immune and for cowitness irons it requires super high sights - I can't make the DPP cowitness on my XDM Elite OSP. I'm trying the Bushnell RSX-250 just for grins - but if you need bombproof it's RMR and Acro - maybe HOlosun 508/509.

what's likely happening is as you slow rack it you're letting the cartridge under the cartridge being fed slide forward to the point that it's contacting the frame and preventing it from dropping free. If you've got some snap caps - load them up and aggressively drop the slide and see if you...

Just a heads up - but with an optic you don't want 100% cowitness - you want lower 1/3 cowitness. It's a preference thing for sure - but generally speaking you're giving the dot more real estate in the top of the window to lift and return. If the dot's not on the screen with lower 1/3rd it...

I don't repeatedly dryfire ANY centerfire handgun without a snap cap. Despite being more robust than a rimfire - they ALL have issues if you do it enough. It's the ultimate in cheap insurance - I don't know why you'd insist on doing it without one. For context - I dryfire every day for...

On mine the chamber was cut too small and it lead to extraction issues. looking around on the web this appears to be fairly common in G3C barrels. The problem with Taurus pistols is there isn’t a ton of data on the new ones as the kind of person who buys them and then crows about them...

I had to send my G3C in for warranty work - good design just poor execution at least on mine
