Same sight alignment should have the SAME point of impact, no? 3 position rifle man do not adjust their sight for standing, kneeling, and prone, no? No. Whatever sight alignment you are getting with the pistol clamped is not relevant to what you need when you are holding it in your hand. Bench rest...

I have used WST with 98 or 100 gr swaged SWC. I use a load that will give me around 650-700 fps. I do all of my load development with a chronograph, as one time I tried a recommended load and found that I was getting close to 800 fps, which I considered far too rough for my GSP. I try to keep my tar...

Re: First pistol session
Hi all, I bought myself a Webley Alecto to test the waters of pistol shooting. First question; (oh, there'll be more questions coming lol) my hand is a little sore from the palm shelf pressing on the bone just above my wrist when I tilt down to lock my wrist. Is this normal "break in" for...

I shot the GSP for years, both the GSP and the newer Expert. Reliable and accurate. But, I have also shifted away from the muzzle heavy feel. I tried the Hammerli SP20 for several years, exclusively, and while it had some good features it was not reliable from a mechanical and durability point of vi...

As stated, it is hard for someone else to state which width, as it will depend on barrel length, (sight radius) and arm length as well (if you are holding it further away, it will appear smaller). I use a wide front blade, that covers the black about 75%. It might be a bit too wide, but I used that ...

Re: Spare magazine on the shooting bench
During a regional competition, Standard pistol event, the referee made a competitor remove his spare magazine from the shooting bench. The magazine was not loaded. I have been searching the ISSF rules to find out on which argument the referee had based his decision, but couldn’t find any. Has any o...

Physical Training
I would suggest you ignore the advice about holding weights out at the end of your arm, or twisting it up. Sounds like advice from an old Hollywood movie with Racquel Welch trying to become a vengeful gunshooter. After many years of shooting, I would suggest that you have a consultation with a physi...
