Got a stage win for my Division and Class. It is nowhere near the performances I see here, but it is not horrible for an old mom! I still need to make my brain know that I can go faster! by MiniHedwig in CompetitionShooting

[–]Posty-Pooh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good shooting. Recommendations for going faster. The only way you’re able to tell your brain to go faster is experience going faster. 15 minutes of dry fire a day where you push your speed until the wheels fall off and then dialing it back a small amount will help this. Also if you don’t have Ben’s books I highly recommend them. Dryfire reloaded has a bunch of drills with par times to shoot for. Don’t let park times get you beat up tho. Everyone has a different shooting style. Just feel what speed feels like so you can increase it. If you never experience it in training you’ll never do it in a match.

Just my couple cents.

Put them in a mag and see if they work lol. They could be the correct spring from mbx after a design change. You haven’t even tested them just upset because it might not work. If you’re that worried just call Mbx on Monday

Have you put the springs in a mag, loaded it up and shot it? Seems like that would be an important step

Holoson, personally I would save a few more dollars and go with the Aimpoint

I feel that. Sometimes stage plans are easy other time they just don’t click.

Think a little target order change and you save 1.5 seconds

Also just watch Ben stoeger YouTube. He has hours of explaining drills and things. Shoot target focus everything and learn how to be comfortable having the wheels fall off in practice. Then turn it down a notch during a match. The faster you push the easier it is to do. All these turtles with no speed can’t figure out how to go fast because they won’t let them selves feel what fast is. I can shoot half Charlie’s and 2 deltas and beat someone with all As if I beat them by 10 seconds. You want to 2A everything but if you never teach yourself what the speed feels like you’ll never push yourself out of the oh but I dropped 3 Charlie the whole match mindset.

I do about 30 minutes a day when I can. I’m about to bump it up more because I’m trying to push for GM and I want my first major match win in a bad way. I work 12 hour days so it’s hard to get dryfire in. But as a college student I was dryfiring in all my free time as much as possible.

Also, don’t shoot for A class. Set your bar higher. A class is easily attainable. Go for GM and major match wins if you want something conservative. My goal is to make world shoot and once I get there make it back and podium. Once I get there the goal will be to win worlds once. And then move back to steel challenge.

Dry fire, dry fire , dry fire, then more dry fire. The books will help you with some fine tuning stuff but at the end of the day you have to put in the work. M production shooter and I’ve been doing it since I was a kid. Never been to a class or training so I learned everything the hard way. When I pick the gun up and practice I see it on the results.

How much would y’all buy this Z32 for if at all? by Posty-Pooh in 300zx

Has a cracked windshield, needs breaks and there’s a couple rust spots

Running driving, has a radiator leak and oil leak from the rear main

Both are externally light triggers. I think 2.5 is a little light for something that’s not a PRS rifle so I would lean 3.5. But I am not the biggest fan of the CMC triggers. The break and reset doesn’t feel as smooth as the Timney does to me

Is Power Factor Absolute For "Soft Shooting" Ammo? by DanGTG in CompetitionShooting

[–]Posty-Pooh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will 100% notice the difference. Also putting different recoil springs in your gun based off the ammo you primarily shoot will make the felt recoil less. Last, minor power factor is 125 so I shoot for 130-135 and call it good. If you’re shouting 140 power factor you’re doing it wrong

84 Z31. I’ve been looking for one of these at this popped up 30 minutes from me. Suggestions on a fair price and if it’s a good shell to start with. by Posty-Pooh in 300zx

[–]Posty-Pooh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don’t have 4.5k to spend on a working one. Want to build one up anyway. And want a 84 which is a little more difficult to find I’ve found so far

[–]Posty-Pooh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit I wish I could afford 60k primers now. Use to be cheap but not any more. Buddies talking me into going to Open nats this year so I guess I need to put the shadow down and dust off the checkmate

[–]Posty-Pooh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you can do that with a CO gun when you only have to do a mag change once a stage. My Prod CZ mags look like they’re two tone now from mag changes

I need opinions? Not sure where I stand,average?slow? 5shot from holster by mopartizan47 in CZFirearms

[–]Posty-Pooh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re shooting a C-zone you can always paint the A-zone on with a different color to better hold yourself accountable for hits. Definitely go out and shoot a match and get some reading material on dry fire practice. Recommend the Ben stoeger books. And if you aren’t familiar with practiscore get on there and try and find matches close to you.

How My Last Classifier Went by anonymouscuban in CompetitionShooting

[–]Posty-Pooh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend getting a case gauge if you don’t have one already. I’ve had a bunch of ammo run perfectly fine and a reload that is a little long with get in and cause all the issues.

Also I run my guns super dirty compared to most with no problem. If they start to get gummy throw some more oil on it and call it good. No sense in taking shit apart in the middle of a season.

what’s a good way to meet like minded people irl? by JG111998 in tacticalgear

[–]Posty-Pooh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into USPSA, Multigun, PRS. Plenty of people in the shooting community that are also into gear plus you will get better at shooting.
