Re: Side stance pros & cons

I started out with an in line stance because from what I've read it was what everybody was doing and things were moving in that direction but after a while I realized my arm is steadier in a more frontal stance, so I changed it. After a week shooting with this stance I changed back to in line becaus...

Side stance pros & cons

Which are the pros and cons of a 180 side stance compared to a more "open", target facing one? We are talking about AP so I wouldn't really factor recoil in... Is my understanding correct that athletes are moving towards the side stance? I started out using a complete 180 stance but I real...

Correct grip

I realized I grip my pistol (AP) in 2 different ways and it seems to be random which one I choose... In the first way the gun is mostly held by the 3 fingers under the trigger and the left side of my hand (I'm right handed) so the pressure is on the bottom of the grip so to speak... In the second wa...

Sights alignment

Where do you guys align the sights? At the peak of your rise, before lowering the gun or at the bottom in the aiming area (in this case they align more and more as they come down and they will be perfectly aligned when you reach the bottom). Also, if they are not perfectly aligned do you fix it or a...

Re: Train the non shooting hand

I asked about this because I was talking with a guy at the range and the subject came up, he said changing to the left hand could be beneficial after a series of very good or very bad shots as a way of calm yourself down (just lifting the gun with the opposite hand, no shooting), plus, he said, when...

Train the non shooting hand

Is training the non shooting hand, for the majority of us the left hand, beneficial in some way for AP?

Re: Anschutz lp@ secondhand

It has another cylinder but I don't know how old... Would new cylinders fit? Are they from Anschutz itself or from Steyr? Can't find much info on that... I consider it an upgrade because at the moment the 6004 velocity is way down and with too many drops, it goes from 240 to 270 fps... I tried the m...

Anschutz lp@ secondhand

Hi guys and Merry Christmas! I'm shooting AP with a Fas 6004 but I wanted to upgrade to a pcp. I've found a secondhand Anschutz lp@ from 2006 for 650 € (~720$). It should be almost new, just one box of pellets through it (I'm not sure if I belive that since it has more than 10 years) and the cylinde...

Re: Score progression

Thank you Gwhite for the usual thorough answer! I started shooting AP back in June this year (I've been shooting normal guns before but just recreationally, with no serious effort to get better) and I'm averaging 530 right now. I would like to star competing and get good at it, problem is there are ...

Re: Score progression

Which score is considered to be "easy", so to speak, to achieve, a score that almost everybody sooner or later is able to shoot and were does it start to get difficult, were most people start to plateau usually... Again obviously it depends on the individual, training, motivation etc... bu...
