Pellet gets stuck in barrrel
Over last 1 month, 3 times my pellet has not left the barrel. Though the pressure is 150+ and inserted correctly. The very next pellet that I fire goes out with full pressure.

Re: Loosing stability without feeling tired
Take three small breaths on top of your lung capacity. That would keep your upper alveoli open. Small breaths, no big breaths. One big breath is o.k.. Three BIG breaths, you drop your CO2, you cerebral vasoconstrict, decrease cerebral blood perfusion. You might get light headed. Three small breaths...

Loosing stability without feeling tired
Though my first couple of series are good, smooth and easy. But after that my lowering of arm and aiming area hold become slightly disorientated though I dont feel tired but the shoulder and wrist lock just is not there.
How to improve upon this.

A query to experienced shooters
I am working hard to take my shooting from 570s to 580s. I have realized that pre-shot visualization before every shot is extremely crucial to ensure consistency over series of shots, otherwise the emotions related to shot-result does disturb the muscles stability. For me there are three important a...

Re: Moving Front sight vertically downward
The most common recommendation is that the visual width of the front sight should roughly match the apparent width of the black, just as shown in Deadeyedick's picture. If your arms are atypically short or long, that's going to have a big effect on the effective width required. To maintain the maxi...

Re: Moving Front sight vertically downward
Hi, Here's a thread where I posted about some 3D printed front sights for the LP400. It wouldn't be any problem at all to adjust the design for a series of sights covering the 5.0-6.0mm range, or whatever you like for that matter. Height could be adjusted too. The attach file option wouldn't accept...

Moving Front sight vertically downward
Hi. My pistol is Walther lp 400 and its front sight is smaller than morini, steyr. I have been shooting by focusing on complete sight picture instead of front sight only. Front sight being smaller is one of the factors which makes focusing on it difficult and therefore I focus upon Sight picture. Mo...

Re: Delibrate shooting in match
So amarinder, Did you get a chance to practice the press and hold technique? It is different. Often we default back to allowing the trigger finger to relax and it resets during recoil. Keeping it back takes some practice but it works and one of the side benefits is that you have better control at a...

Re: Delibrate shooting in match
What does " When you feel the click of sear reset." mean. Can you explain. You have been pressing trigger to release hammer then allowing reset to happen at some point during recoil and recovery. If you press and hold, you have all 4 fingers stabilizing during recoil and recovery. Make re...

Re: Delibrate shooting in match
Let me offer this, You are trying to shoot a perfect center shot. You try to spend much time getting the right sight alignment and sight picture, then squeeze off that perfect shot. Trigger squeeze trumps all else. Rather than get the sights aligned then squeeze; Allow your trigger squeeze to align...

Re: Delibrate shooting in match
No. You need to shoot faster so you don't have time to screw yourself up with "deliberateness." I shoot faster in training. And I am able to score 570+. When I follow the same pace, I screw up. I am unable to acheive the same stability that I have in training. There are only possibilities...
