yes i agree im myopic and have added +.25 to my prescribed power. feels insufficient. i guess i will find time to get a +.5 lens to try it out.

btw even at +.25 there is much less strain on the eyes compared to without.

i have no experience with pellet or ammo testing at all so does that mean mean that the demo card is not the smallest 1 hole that can be made with a pistol?

to me it looks as good as humanly possible.

if possible could someone post a real good vs bad test cards?

there is a slight chance that in the process of flattening something abrasive like sand or metallic dust might have embedded itself onto the pellet. alternatively something loose from the pellet might end up at the valve. i wonder if its possible that the bad pellet might get slightly sheared when t...

your right though.

well you have to clamp a gun to test rounds. no one on earth is good enough to be able to test at the level we want just shooting it normally.

you dont see ppl shooting inner 10s all the time right?

If you do not trust your coach enough to not question her methods, leave NYT. I do not think you will go anywhere even if you stay there since you are so negative about her. Either find someone you can trust or just self-coach like Ed Hall. I do not know who coached you but do realise that with each...

i have tried this technique of "visualisation" before. it is something like brainwashing oneself, that one can shoot 10, will shot ten and will HAD shoot 10. the shot which comes out will most likely as hoped, a 10. but the downside of this technique is that once encouraged by the series ...

you need either more experience or someone or some way to train up mentally. i too had a problem with competitions and would regularly shoot 40 to 50 points less. 8 years on it has somewhat stabilised. i noticed that lighting makes a difference. with duller/dimmer yellowish ambient lighting its much...

ever tried throwing straw? going to the extreme end doesnt work either.

anyway i noticed that .45g pellets have lesser "kick" when fired. on my fwb 103 anyway.

extremely good read. some very interesting concepts that i can explore and hopefully incorporate. i too agree that the wrist is a major factor and now i know why my fingers tense when i try to lock my wrist. next step to train as described.

have thoughts but dont hold onto them. when the same thought keeps running around, the worse that can happen usually happen to me. would be great if i could last a whole 1hr 55mins in that state of mind.

try to contact feinwerkbau to get a new copy. the once sent me a hardcopy about 3 years ago when i requested for a softcopy. it came along with pamphlets and other such goodies. best thing was that they sent it express air.

lets try it this way. do what you normally do raise you arm and go into the aiming area. next close your eyes. raise your arm again and slowly lower back to the same level as before and wait for 2 to 3 seconds. open your eyes are you still on target?

im short sighted too. perscription -1.00 and my shooting glasses are fitted with a -0.75. i find thats its not enough so i intend to grind another piece of -0.50. im using knobloch now with the lens made at a normal optical shop i had a hard time convincing them that i do not need the lens at perscr...

rather than doing that you might want to try this. find a old pair and make lenses of the proper power and replace it. alternatively, you could do the same for your current pair and just swap it when you shoot. however this could cause wearing out of the small screw and thread. i tried this before u...

ok i finally registered an account. im the guest who shoots 540s. if you wanted to know i was greatly help by reading the Army Marksmanship Unit's Pistol Training Guide on bullseyepistol.com. i would say it has been the single source of print that i have gotten the most out of. (there is a great lac...
