Has anyone DIY resealed S400 or T200 cylinders

I have a dozen or so cylinders that are leaking air when I put them on the rifles. Has anyone tackled this themselves? Is there a source for tools and seals? I have one T200 the rest are the S400 rifles

Re: Kurger targets are no longer accepted by the NRA

"So few NRA matches" Who's fault is that. Ultimately ours. There are people who like to shoot matches but as a match director of 20+ years and junior coach it sure can be hard to find help. Those that do, god love them are are a blessing. But this is a topic for another thread. I've tried ...

Kurger targets are no longer accepted by the NRA

I understand from Champions that Kurger targets are no longer accepted by the NRA for matches. So, no more Kurger’s coming into the states. Or at least that’s what I got from Champions. Who makes the best targets and where to get them? I’m looking for B-2&3 Bullseye targets and B-11 &33 Intl...

Training videos needed

I had some old NRA, pre-USA Shooting videos that showed in great detail how to set up the four positions and sling usage. Yes it's that old that it showed sitting. I can't find the VHS tape or the converted DVD. Any suggestions on videos? I did see the video by CYS97. Good job by the way. I have a f...

Re: Advice S&W 41 vs HS Victor

The most important things are, how does it feel? How does it balance for you? For many decades I used a 41. Later with a heavy 5.5” Clark barrel and ultra-dot. I was steadier with a muzzle heavy pistol. Now that I’m pushing 60 I can’t hold my 41 anymore. After trying several options, I decided that ...

45ACP crimp and dies

What dies are you using and what crimp are you using for your 45ACP's? Here is why I'm asking. I just switched to the Redding competition micrometer die. I was using RCBS dies. I have almost eliminated rounds that don't gauge OK. This die straightens and centers the bullet. I'm still using the RCBS ...

Where do you get you Knobloch lens at.

Where do you get you 37mm lens for Knobloch at. I had one made and it doesn't seam to be all that good. Looks like an inexpensive plastic lens. So I'm looking for other sources.

I don't feel comfortable saying who it was. I didn't flow up on it and maybe I'm just picky.

Re: CCI 975CC Ammo?

I took the ballistics off of CCI’s web site. I can only “assume” that they use some standard for comparison purposes. True the shooter is by far the biggest variable; but that being said; how many of us use a S&W M&P 22 and a Glock 45 for Bullseye. Or a revolver because those auto’s will nev...

Re: CCI 975CC Ammo?

I plan on getting some. I have tried the “Quite” ammo which is list as 710fps with a 40 gr bullet. Out of a 1907 Anschutz rifle I’m lucky to shoot one-inch groups at 50 feet and more like a 1 ½” group. This is a new listing at CCI. It looks like it fills a gap between the ultra-low 710fps and the St...

CCI 975CC Ammo?

Has anyone tried the CCI 975CC ammo for the 50 foot indoor course for Free or Standard pistol? It's a 45gr 835fps round. It's sold a a "Quite Semi-Auto" load. I don't care about the noise as much as muzzle flip. The reviews that I see are saying that it works in the Ruger series of pistols...

Anyone using Armscor Std Vel 22 ammo?

I’m running a 4H Bullseye club and I’m looking at the Armscor Std Vel 22 ammo @ 1135fps in Ruger Mk3 target pistols. At $215 a case wholesale (I have my FFL) that’s a hard price to beat. So, does anyone have experience in the Ruger’s. Are they reliable and what kind of accuracy can I expect? Remembe...

LP10 loading lever won't stay down so it won't fire. And I have a match tomorrow. Any ideas?
