To answer a few questions. I've tried to use the scatt in two environments. One, in my basement which is a very low ceiling place, small, and the halogen was underneath, which as I see now is not the place for it to be. The other environment was at my school range which is quite large. I experimente...

SCATT Difficulties

Hello! Just wanted to see if anyone knew how to help me with my SCATT. I just got it not too long ago, but noticed that it didn't work really well when in prone and kneeling. Standing, it worked ok part of the time. I'll attach a picture of what I'm seeing when trying to shoot with it. Someone said ...

Beijing Shooting Hall Question..

Hey Everyone!! I've seen lots of pictures of the beautiful Beijing Shooting hall, but can't figure out how many firing points there are!!! There seems to be a massive amount, specifically for the Olympic games. Just curious to see if anyone knew the exact number. Thanks, and happy shooting! - H. Cur...

Small-bore Shopping

I have considered used, but it's difficult to find what I'm looking for, in left. All the pictures of the anshutzes on the websites look quite similar. I'm starting to lean towards the GE with the 2013 barrel. I just need to find out how much it is before I make up my mind. I already have a lot of m...

Small-bore Shopping

Hello Everybody! It's been a while since my last post. Anywho, I've been shopping for small-bore rifles, because I have been told again and again to start early. I'm a sophomore in high school, so I figured it would be a great time to start. I'm joining a local club, which will allow me to practice ...

Shot Quality VS The Clock

Thanks for the responses everybody!!! The sailing trip was brilliant! I'd like to get the the opinion of a few people about what another person said, sorry I'm not quoting it at the moment (I've barely slept for a week), anywho, about the 12 bull targets. Is it OK to shoot both the top and bottom of...

Shot Quality VS The Clock

The other day, I shot a practice 3X10. It was the first one of the summer, although I have been practicing the positions alot. Scores were ok, and there are a few mistakes easy to fix. I found that the clock ticking really threw off the quality of shots. Standing was the worst victim of this... Shoo...

ANS 2013 rubber gasket

http://jga.anschuetz-sport.com/index.php5 Check out that link. Check the box for your rifle and download it. It's the entire parts list. If you find out what it is, most dealers can order it, although it may take a long time to get here. I would have attached the file, but it wouldn't let me. Hope t...

ANS 2013 rubber gasket

If you haven't already, give a call to Brenzovich. I've found they have alot of things that other dealers do not. And if it's a problem with the rifle, they are expedient about getting it fixed.

Well I do have a passion for shooting and I'm on this website quite a bit. :-D Anyway, I don't know if I'd recommend this training for every single session. The guy who gave it to me told me to do one position a day, until I was really solid in that position. Then I could focus more on the more diff...

Improving Position/Muscle Memory

Would a change of jacket or rifle in future negate all the training previously done with the old jacket and rifle? I was thinking changes in equipment might result in some changes in position as well. I would recommend doing the exercise a few times with the new equipment, but you will adjust quick...

When you order, you should measure chest, waist, and hips. I have gotten my jackets a little bit bigger than is recommended because my lengthy arms and I'm a growing teenage guy, so I need room to grow. Don't get it too big, but you can always move the buttons up to regulation tightness etc. Hope th...

left right swing in standing 10M air

Another thing that you might want to consider is the weighting of your rifle. I know the J2 record holder 599/600 and he says that a back heavy rifle is alot easier to control. What kind of rifle do you have? We had a first year team this year at my school and because I read alot and shoot alot more...

Improving Position/Muscle Memory

First, I apologize for not replying to questions sooner. I've been very busy with exams and I was not alerted by e-mail that someone else had posted. Ok getting down to business.

Improving Position/Muscle Memory

This is an exercise given to me by George Brenzovich who has been coaching for around 40 years. It helped me quickly adjust to my new rifle and equipment. I've been shooting for 10 months (3p air) and this season my standing scores were around 89 on average. Now after doing this exercise many times,...

SCATT vs. Real shooting

I would have to say from my experience that both live and dry-firing with a training device are necessary. The SCATT, which is what I use, provides some crucial information for fixing positions, and diagnosing issues.
Hope this helps

Developing the eye

Hi,
I have read some articles and still not found what I am looking for. I want to know how the olympic shooters can detect if a tenth of a ring is off by looking at front sight. I know it is a acquired skill, but how can I develop that?
