Sweeney coached the pistol team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likwid Posted August 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Took the new pistol to the range, 25 feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted August 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 check your trigger finger, if you're wrapping your first digit around the trigger and pulling it versus depressing it with the tip of your finger you'll usually pull to the left. But otherwise not bad homie, just some helpful advice because I use to pull to the left all the time and that was my issue.I tried really focusing on that today with the new pistol but I still grouped to the left, I'm wondering if I need someone to watch me and show me exactly why I'm pulling... or I need to adjust my sights.It is a funny vid , but the shirt works very well. Nice with full size gun and 2 extras clips. It fits tightly so you can run ,jump ,and ride wheelies!The only thing that kills me about the video is that in their demo video they show the biggest flaw, even Mr Clean has trouble ripping his shirt open..308 @ 1000 yards.. Yes I said 1000 not 100. Took 5 shots as fast as I could load and pull the trigger. 11 inch vertical string about a 5 inch horizontal string. Will post pics later.Waiting to see, 1000 yards is always impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Waiting to see, 1000 yards is always impressive.Here is a vid from last winter shooting from 200-1000 at steel plates to hold you over until I can pull my last target pic from my other drive. I was developing my drop chart this day.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFJecEeUZ_8This vid was just to show people how far away the different distances are as most people have not shot past 200 yards or so. Around the 130 mark you will hear one of my buddies saying they are headed to the mile target.. As in, they are shooting at the 12" disk that is 1 mile away. And yes it can be hit without too much trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to try some long range shooting, but I don't have access to a high powered.M16A2The ones I missed were when I was wearing the gas mask.Nice shots either way! Gas mask really messes with your site alignment? Do you pretty much have to go off neutral stance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aracnid007 Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Finally got to the range last week. Got a Taurus M85 I needed to shoot.First 5 shots were to the left, adjusted grip, second 5 were much better-Rented a S&W .500 Mag, these were the second round of three shots-And this is why I like my 1911- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flounder Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I may not have targets but I might have some vid after sunday. I will be out doing some long range shooting again. Out to 1165 yards. Man I wish my new scope was here already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangBruhY Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 I need to get back out there and put some holes in a few more targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 I demand videos Flounder More 1000 yard videos.I'll post some pictures from my trip today, 21 ft strong side was as expected. I did shoot weak side today... first time ever (sad I know), fairly uneventful, all 10 shots within center body mass but WAY not the grouping I usually have... need to practice more.Only "snag" was when I tried to shoot weak side 2 handed I got bit by my slide, put a nice little cut in my thumb... it's like trying to throw left handed. Wrapped my thumb with some masking tape and went back to shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 I will try and get the vids up tomorrow night.. We were shooting steel out to 1165 as usual but it takes so much time to get the camera zoomed in enough to see the targets and it not be blurry. I think I have vid of 400,520,700, and 1000 from this last trip. I need to get some vid from the tactical course which is what I should have done this time since there were only 3 of us there this time. Also, we were able to get the .308's to damn near hit the 12 inch disc at 1640 yards. Now that was fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
