grips
Take off material where you feel the most pressure against. The entire grip shoul fit to your hand comfortably. You could use fine sandpaper or a dremel tool with caution. It does not matter where you remove as long as you do not cut so much into the grip. Otherwise it will be better to get a difere...

Contact lenses, lasik or Glasses RX
Hello,
I have Astigmatism.
I am wondering what is the most used by shooters with my condition and why.
I would like to know what you prefer, contact lenses or prescription glasses.
What are the pros and the cons.
Has antbody tried lasik surgery and what was the outcome?

The point of impact at 7 am is not the same as 3 pm and is not the same from one range to other. ...

I don't get it
I believe that you were not focusing and aligning your sights properly. you could be grouping anywhere and then somewhere else and all over the place (like your target) the change of light will not help you much either. I suggest that if you know there was not good light or that your eyeglasses are ...

I have noticed that fired cases from other guns (hammerli) do not chamber in my K-22. However a fired case from the K-22 will fit easily in the chamber. I have also seen the rifling marks on the bullets meaning that the lands are making contact with the bullet prior to detonation. I guess that the f...

I am sure the coach will be very happy if He finds out that one of his students is calling him those sorts of names online. You should be happy for 2 things, 1- you are young and have a lot of time to learn, practice and become a better shooter. 2- you actually have 2 coaches where people like me ha...

have someone check to see if your gripping properly. sometimes your trigger finger is tensed without you noticing and cause it to be near impossible to pull. It feels as if my trigger finger is cramped and I try to loosen up the grip but then the gun moves around as I fire and if I grip it hard it ...
