Try this website http://www.targettimers.com/ This is Hans Kolpin who makes a timer called the "Range Officer"---with audible commands and start & stop signals, for all Bullseye and International Events---including CF Duello as well.

Well "thanks" to Izhmash & EAA for their efforts. Without them we would not have an intro level rifle for young shooters. I seems to me that the good ole' USA better not get into too many more international squabbles---because our own industries don't produce any more target rifles and...

In it's simplest form the "Finals" are fired in a 70 second period for ten shots. If the targets are not "electronic" then each target has to be hand graded with a "NONIUS" gauge. This plastic device enable the "Judge" to record each shot in tenths---hence a s...

You are quite limited as to new FP's---Steyr is no longer manufactured---TOZ---Pardini---Morini---FP10. It is a crap shoot IMHO---the price of TOZ is great ( the gun has issues) the gun is a great gun needs to be tweaked. Pardini, is a stranger to me---I have seen a few around---no known complaints....

Rapid Fire Bays

Forgive the intrusion and I am not trying to be a wise guy, but---the Rapid Fire event no longer uses turning targets---mebbe you can build the bays and get someone to develop a timing system to turn the red & green lights on and off. The only problem is early and late shot detection, which coul...

Dedication

I don't think it just settles down on that one issue----I think the term is dedication. You have the new crop of kids coming forth who follow the precepts of their parents and that is they are dedicated to the instant gratification crowd. A kid who wants to shoot a gun, is a quick gimme the gun----b...

IZH Trigger

I suggest that you avoid touching any of the adjustments until you have been shooting the gun for a while. Perhaps the only adjustment you might want to deal with eventually is the trigger weight. I will agree that the instructions are extremely confusing and I left them alone---didn't have the gun ...

I use the Dillon 550B and Redding dies---Remington Brass---Meister bullets DEWC 100gr.---Federal Primers--- 1.2 gr. of VV N310.

I know for a fact that certain pain killers do a wonderful job on steadiness----we used to call them "group tighteners." I know for a fact that Percoset, taken for arthritic pain produced a match score I haven't duplicated since that day. I also have run into several "wet" shoote...

The current anti-gun movement in the USA is definitely a contributer to the apparent "lack of talent" ----we have all seen programs disappear as fast as ranges. I used to coach High School smallbore for some 24 years and when I started we had 84 teams on Long Island. I doubt there are more...

TOZ

I had to remove more wood inside my Morini grips so the cocking lever would move further back. Take one side of the grips off and you can see where the lever is restricted by the grips...Rob This should be done to prevent "short stroking" which is a common fault with the TOZ---the inner p...

Standard Pistol

Why go anywhere else---if you have a 208s---what else do you need? Certainly not the SP20 to replace the 208s. I agree about Walther, I have never felt comfortable with one. If you must get a new gun, I suggest that you wait for the end of the Olympics and see what has been developed by Pardini.

Trigger Gauges

I think that the Lyman gauge is only useful for "ball park" figures---there are too many issues with this gauge and "sensitive" trigger weights. I would speak highly regarding the Gehmann set.
