PRACTICED SHOOTING WITH BEAMHIT

Shooters have been asking about practice shooting equipment so here goes.
I have two beamhits set up.I have a 110 set up at work as a demo for customers and a 190 set up at my home for me. I shoot all day at work with the smallest mask in the beam hit at a distance of 15 to 35 feet.All I want to do is hit the bull 50 out of 50.A hard job as the smallest mask is about a 9-10 on a 10 meter target.By practicing I seem to be able to at least improve on the earlier weeks shooting.For the price I find it great for dry firing, better than a wall, and it tells you with sound you hit.No wires and instant setup.Can even be taken on trips.
The 190 is great for me and anyone that wants to improve their shooting skills indoors in the cold winter.This uses your desktop or laptop to register your hits.The settings I tried were, HITS which shows all your hits on the target, TRACE shows each hit removing the earlier hit and PLOT which show your recent hit along with a small x on the earlier hits.Each hit is numbered on the computer screen.When you feel a great shot take a look and see.A nice print out of a nice shooting session is also available.
I had a great day with the 190 today and with the rain outside I was still able to shoot without ammo in my home.
Both unit use a laser that is only fired when the gun is dry fired.Both units are priced very reasonably. For the juniors or adults.This is not the big costly trainer but it does what I need, the same thing I get when shooting targets outside in the nice weather. Any of your pistols, rifles, shotguns or airguns can be used if capable of dry fire(use a snap cap in live ammo guns) Practice makes perfect?

BEAMHIT AND 10 METER

Used the 10 meter target today.You shoot at 9 meters or 28 feet as the target is scaled to be correct at this distance.Very interesting results on a cold day inside.Used my LP 10.

I like it. Can you display US NRA smallbore and highpower rifle targets, or are ISSF targets the only ones available?

That's not a deal breaker, but I would certainly prefer to have all three to match the disciplines I shoot.

Lighten up, Francis.

Some of us found the post informative enough to make offline inquiries that we otherwise wouldn't have.
