like someone posted earlier the things that wigger suggested have been tried and tested. although i dont think that the system is perfect, i dont know how people can say the medal count for the united states is "very low" in the past 4 years i have seen scores much improved in open and jr ...

i hate stupid polls like this. we should find out how many little kids are harmed or choke on mc donalds toys every year. i bet there are more than 21000 kids that get hurt doing that. and wait...no crap people get hurt shooting paintball guns...we're shooting them at eachother...thats the whole poi...

ive personaly never seen it done. but there are several disadvantages i see in shooting the 2025 instead of the 2002. for one, the 2025 shoots at a much higher velocity than the 2002. this is very usefull for shooting the farther distances in field target, but im pretty certain that this would cause...

my suggestion would be to try and change how you apprach the shot. i would try and think of the shot not only as holding and firing but add on follow through also. by thinking about following through, you will lengthen how long you are focusing on the shot. what might be happening is you are focusin...

i think that the bottom line is this...the ISSF wants to change the "image" of shooting. yup we look wierd in our suits, pants, gloves, slings, glasses(and before hats with blinders), etc.... and they feel that if they get rid of the pants, at least we'll walk normally......too bad we stil...

The difference in the rifles really depends on you. No one gun(yes....even the new ones ahg9003 and fwb p700) will give anyone an advantage over the next guy. ive been to my fair share of matches and have seen people win/medal with all different brands/models of rifles. Honestly in my opinion, i thi...
