My 1813 with Madco barrel has a very tight close to the bolt which is largely caused by the firing pin spring. When closing the bolt, the sear engages when the bolt is pushed forward, and then is compressed further as the lugs slide into the slots. I shoot benchrest and find the force required to op...

It is more straight than oblong. I'm going to continue my interrogation today for more details. I agree with you that the cheekpiece could be an issue causing the shooter to not look through the sights correctly but the level of shooter make me think that it can't be that. Top level competitor. Cou...

I'm not sure if what the resolution of the scatt system is, however I do know that it uses a microphone to detect the point of fire, perhaps the sound of the firing pin, then the shot, then the shot leaving the barrel is causing confusion also as it may think it has detected multiple shots? The webs...

It's possible that the recoil movement of the barrel is far too rapid for the sensor to correctly detect the barrel movement. So the system is only effectively picking up when the sensor moves toward the emitter point. Could be just a limitation of the system.

Several experienced shooters in my club lower the butt from the shoulder to load and I asked about the movement etc effecting shooting position. I was told two things: 1) Straining to reach the breach port will pull you out of position more than dropping the butt from the shoulder as you are physica...

Great to hear it helped, I had a similarproblem with an intermittent trigger twitch that took me a loong time to sort out!!

Try dry firing the first shot after you resettle, then put in a shot, see if it is just a settling in problem.

Could just be first trigger pull is a little twitchier after a rest...

I have local access to SK Standard Plus and SK Rifle Match .22 ammunition. Does anyone know if the Rifle Match is suitable for a standard pistol at 50 meters? Is it potentially more accurate in a pistol at 50 meters than Standard Plus? Thanks! JLK If Standard plus works in your pistol, the rifle ma...

I've seen coaching on scatt successfully diagnose a problem with shot timing and shallow breathing/muscling on a shooter, leading to a significant jump in performance. For me it found a problem with my trigger pull, adjusting blade forward removed the occasional swing out to the right that I had dev...

Just a question on the SCATT system and live fire: As a smallbore shooter, a 10m range is not a particularly useful range for live fire, however, as the scatt system operates much like a nintendo wii (camera on rifle, two IR LED's on the target plate, in theory the target does not have to be between...

* File is 9 MB PDF (High qual images), so can't upload, PM me an email address and I can send it to you. =============== This may not be strictly the same model as your KKM (They produced them for quite a while, with a _lot_ of different accessories). Essentially there were two versions of the actio...

By moving the trigger to the rear, what are you accomplishing? Additional striker spring pressure, longer F.P. fall? Thank you, willy The firing pin is held further back, increases spring pressure and the amount of time that the spring has to accelerate the firing pin. The 18 series onward have a s...
