Forgot to mention that I was using the Steyr Weaver base plus a Red dot.
Found the problem to be a loose screw on the Weaver mount.
What kind of match were you shooting using a "Red Dot"?

It could not have been an "International".

Re: FWB 300S stock help

Break down a cardboard box and tape it to the comb with duct tape. It's infinitely adjustable by layering and crushing.

Re: Scatt or dry fire?

I only have some small experience using a SCATT while training with John Zurek.

If I wasn't constantly whining "poor mouth", I'd be using one. It is FAR more useful than
dry firing. You can tell by the number of posts saying how the shooter can't see his screw-ups.

Re: Repairing Hammerli 480K Air Pistols?

Hi Dave..... Have you blown synthetic oil thru the gun. A lot of times the seals "come back" as they absorb the oil and tighten things up........ You lose nothing for the attempt....... In all my years of shooting, I have never heard this (though I've done it on a couple of SSPs). Certain...

Re: Cheap Clip-On Blinder for Prescription Glasses

You're using an over complicated kludge to shoot with. I've seen others do the same and they can never understand why it's all a mess.

UnGe has the KISS Principle down cold.

Good advice!

Re: Cheap Clip-On Blinder for Prescription Glasses

Guess what. No one clips reading glasses over prescription glasses, and no one would put scotch tape on their prescription lens. You're right. No one clips reading glasses over prescription glasses. What ever gave you that idea? Are you saying your prescription glasses are shooting glasses, or are ...

You're going to buy a blinder at Walmart because you don't have matte Scotch tape?

Get real!

Get reading glasses at the Dollar Store for, guess what, $1.

Re: Is a Broken Morini 162e Worth It?

For $200, if you are not happy, you could part it out.

But, if you can't shoot the gun you have well, why bother.

Re: Air gun and pellet testing

Very nice effort! I guess I'd be buying the JSB pellets (tops in my testing), unless I was using a FAS 6004. Then it would be the RWS Lite for the extra speed. If you're feeling ambitious, you might try the same tests with different lots of the same pellets. Also, you missed my cheap-ass favs. I lik...

"Maybe buy spare rear sight and file it bigger."

Re: Follow through or not?

If you're "ambushing" the bull as it wanders by, I don't think follow-thru will help much. Some guys use a ridiculously long follow-thru: several seconds. That MAY help. What you're looking for is steady hold with the shot breaking with no movement during that hold. Analyze your shot durin...
