Re: Noptel Trainer vs. New Scatt Trainer

The program begins tracking when the receiver picks up a signal, but the data is held in temporary memory until the shot is detected. Then a "window" of the memory gets saved based on settings in the program. The window will be from a short time prior to a short time after the shot is det...

When I first started shooting smallbore rifle, I had the most trouble with sitting. My body is not proportioned correctly for it nor do I have the flexibility to shoot it comfortably. I was able to shoot better scores than kneeling most of the time, but it took a lot of practice.

The nub of the problem is shooting has ceased to be about hitting the target, its now about looking cool as you blaze away and your friends film you for youtube. My club has members who don't bother to retrieve their target or worry about where there shots went. As long as they've fired their gun t...

Conventional pistol is a sport thats many decades old, to change it to accommodate the few that cant make time to do what is necessary to compete is ridiculous. I dont compete in NASCAR because i cant afford the cost of a race car, should they make a rule change and let me race my pickup? . . . . ....

I mounted my .22 trap in the basement from the floor joists.
Since you have a pellet trap, you don't need a backstop behind it.

The original post is spam. No one can "search everywhere" and not know how to score a target. The purpose of the post is to get us to click on the link, which I refuse to do.

What is the headphone for? Dry fire. Plug it in the fore end. I find it not necessary with mine. So that you can hear sound of "bang bang"? Not really "bang, bang," but "click, click, click." I can do three "shots" before I put the pistol down when practicing...

I am thinking I am going to start importing bottles of air from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. I can sell those to the purists who think that the original equipment's air from the motherland will propel their pellet more accurately down range into the 10 ring. That reminds me of a story my Dad u...

Re: Well pink IS cool...

Personally I love the pink guns, especially when wielded by my goddaughter wearing her Mad Kitty Tactical hoodie, and rainbow shoelaces.... I do, too. The ARs sure look different! I was thinking of getting a Lady Smith in pink to use as a small carry pistol in place of my usual .45, however, I sure...

Training at 25m is no handicap. The 50m target looks the same--blurry. It doesn't matter if you're not a fan of dry fire, however, if you want to shoot well with the facilities you have, you need to dry fire. Do some research on here to find out how to do it correctly. Some tips from me: don't just ...

Alan, Back in the 70s or early 80s there was consideration to switch to a smaller prone target. They had us shoot a match on what they called a "decimal" target which I believe was the 50m int. target sized for 100 yds. It was tough in the Eastern winds that switch a lot. If I remember cor...
