Ha Ha...Richard, I totally agree with you; some like 'em,some don't. There actually is a great venue for irises, that is in AP Silhouette match shooting. The iris brings all sight elements into clarity. I still direct my attention on the front sight and try to hold sight aligment, with the very clea...

CO2...Oh Boy.....

Hi everyone, I completely agree with Richard H and CDF. I've got a LP1-C CO2 that my son and I share for 10 meter AP. I got it from a friend..LD as some of you may know him as. He set me up with a paintball fill tank and valve and filling is very easy, I just followed his instructions(weighing with ...

Hmm...I do that.........

Hi Ed Hall, In resonse to this suggestion; "Although this may seem like a good exercise, it is really negative in nature. The highlights are all the hits outside where you are trying to be. A better, although more difficult way to train, would be to cut away all the part outside your ring of ch...

Shootin Locally....

Hi Johnathon, I live in Corona, and I shoot some 10 meter AP. You live very close to LD(Larry Durham); he has invited me over to his place in Wine Country to shoot AP 10 meter or AP Silhouette.

To all of us in general..... Hah! ten meter AP shooting is dirt Cheap! If you don't think so, just try campainging a 125CC Motocross bike for a twelve year old for one year....... Hopefully the end result is that the child quits before he breaks his/her neck and you're out another $7K-$8K for the ne...

Hi Ado, I was shooting in an FT match several weeks ago,and wandered over to the 10 meter building because there were some cars parked in front of the doorway. I talked with a person there.
