Re: Bleiker on anschutz ALU?

That's great information from all of you. I will have to dig a lot more into this issue before making a final decision. I guess my endpoint is to overall improve my system performance, taking advantage of the accuracy of bleiker, the shorter bolt and (from I have heard since I have no direct experie...

Bleiker on anschutz ALU?

I am considering switching my system, and I might lean towards the (expensive) bleikers. I have been told some accessoriers won't fit Bleiker and being a 3P shooter this might greatly increase costs if I have to get new hooks etc... plus one gets used to the stock... I do not see a lot of bleiker me...

Re: Why rejection is good for you, and a special equipment o

This is a great podcast by Ryan, I particularly enjoyed the last one about shot rejection. In one sentence he has nailed all issues I have experience for many years (over holding, damned sights go below the 10 ring and I got it back up, noticing my sight alignment sucks but I still release, etc...)....

Training oportunities/high quality coaching needed

My competition season got messed up, and I want to take advantage of this time off to get some high quality training in 3 p shooting this upcoming fall. I tried MEC but of course they are just too busy with Olympic champions etc... so rapidly Mr Reinkemeier turned me down. I am looking into maybe a ...

Re: Kneeling roll filler?

I did try airsoft pellets and look fine, but my kneeling roll is too heavy now and not convenient for air travel... How about grasss seeds?

Cork pieces break down over time and the roll changes size.

So, I guess the airsoft pellets do not deform and should be OK, right?

Re: scatt mx-02

Are you using the correct target, scaled to the correct distance? I had this issue when the size of the target dot was off. Thanks. Yes, I use the 10 meters air rifle target as I used to do with my previous scatt solution. Uh, you need to use the scatt software to print out a 50m target scaled down...

scatt mx-02

I just got this expensive piece of equipment. I use it mostly indoors for air rifle and 3 P training at a distance of 10 meters. I have to say it is wonderful for air rifle training, you just point, it calibrates and you are done. No frame, no cables for the most part and works wonderful. The issue ...

I have developed many drills to work on specific parts of the shot process and use the scatt to monitor and focus on improving things one step at a time. I think I am not the only person who would appreciate your sharing some of these drills. Would you be willing to post them to the forum? LOL! Hon...

It seems to be a software issue. Try to reinstall the Scatt software; check scatt.com for latest version and make sure you have all drivers installed. If this doesn't work I would suggest to try a different computer. If it's hardware; where is your sensor mounted on the rifle? Thanks, I'll try that...

SCATT SOLUTION NOT REGISTERING SHOTS

I wonder if anyone can help. I use a Scatt solution (black box) and I am having with the sensor detecting the moment of the shot. The green trace is OK, but actual shot is not registered for at least 4 or 5 shots at the beggining. It happens also when I switch from Sighting to competition, and when ...

I think in most cases the COG will be right behind the support hand for obvious reasons. A lot of shooters use front weights to shift it a little bit further to the front, to dampen the barrel movement and improve recoil. I think the same goes for kneeling, although in my personal case nothing seems...

Anyone can recommend on how to get the glass in the adjustable front sights clean, as well as the filters in the diopters ? Mine are pretty dirty...but I do not want to mess them up yet.
