Can anybody recommend any scoring and squadding software suitable for ISSF pistol matches? There is a system available here in Australia but we are also looking at other suitable alternatives. We have scanned the internet but to date have not come up with anything suitable, all programs seem to revo...

The slide could be sticking when the gun is fired. Remove the recoil spring and the guide rod and clean them thoroughly, and the hole in the slide where they are located. I experienced a problem once when opening the slide and it would not come all the way back; it felt gritty just like it had been ...

The reason is merely lack of supply that occurs from time to time with both N310 and WST. I'm just looking for a possible alternative.

Using a Pardini HP New can any body provide succesful load data using VV N320 and .312 98gn HBWC. I have successfully used N310 and WST, but have been unable to find data for N320.

Thanks in advance

Can anybody supply/advise the correct cylinder filling procedure (CO2) for the FWB model 2 air pistol.

I'm not a revolver expert but listening to the guys in the Club that are experts, I believe the Lewis Lead remover (think that's what it is called) is the way to go.

Just check with your Gun shop.

This is the website for taipan bullets - fairly recently updated. Seems like he is back in business, but you will have to buy in bulk and wear the freight charges http://www.bulletmaker.com/ Thanks Top End, I'd noticed the update on his web site but according to the dealers here, nothing is happeni...

Good quality projectiles are made here in NZ. I suppose freight charges would make them pretty costly, if moved across the ditch (assuming export / import is legal). Well, guess we won't know until we check it out. Are you able to supply Company names and contact details etc. so we can see what the...

Bullzi should be available give Hank a call and he should be able to supply what you want. He may even be able to size to your requirements. Thanks for your reply 220, but we (the club) have been having a lot of problems with the quality of this brand. So this is the reason we are looking for anoth...

Well since I started this thread in September 2008, it seems that the situations has now become critical; that is it seems to be damn near impossible to get quality 32 cal HBWC in Australia, well in Qld at least. One manufacturer, despite numerous emails and personal visits to his premises, just doe...

What model did you get and what does it weigh empty. My problem is if it weighs around 17 kilos and I have a 17 kilo limit and i put 10 kilos of guns ammo and tools in plus cloths im going to be up for 2 or 300 on top of flights when I go somewhere. My current box is only about 2 kilos and it weigh...

I purchased a Pelican case to transport my Centre Fire & Standard Pistol overseas last year. Yes it is a little on the heavy side, but I never incurred excess baggage fees. My purpose in buying the case was to protect 2 expensive pistols, I think you need to consider which is the cheaper; having...

My load for my Pardini HP New is as follows 1.4gr N310, winchester primer, 98gr HBWC projectile, seated flush with the case mouth and only a very slight taper crimp. Other loads that work and are roughly the same point of impact, plus or minus a couple of clicks on the sights are 1.5gr Winchester S...

A fellow club member purchased one in the past 12 months, certainly appears to be a quality product - well finished and shoots quite well. He is very happy with it, and has had no problems at all; he claims it shoots a lot better than he does.

Overall it appears to good value for the money.

Lee Classic Turret and Lee Dies here in Australia.

Deadeyedick your reference to the projectiles causing the problem could be correct. Taipan are my preferred brand but have been unable to obtain them for several months, so I have been forced to use another brand. Although I cannot say that the problem began when I changed brands.

Problem seems to occur only during the precision stage, rapid fire is OK.

In the ISSF Centre Fire match I am shooting a Pardini HP (.32 S&W Long) and my normal score has been running in the range of 550 - 565. Lately I am having my scores ruined by unexpected 7's and sometimes 6's. Now with the problems with the 7's my score is dropping (recently a 536), and I have be...

Thanks Fred that is exactly what I was referring to. I owe you one.

Some time ago (12 - 18 months) somebody posted a link to a spreadsheet that listed group sizes achieved by a variety of pistols using a variety of brands of .22LR ammunition. The pistols were mechanically clamped to achieve the best possible results. I made some notes regarding the results for the P...
