I saw several competitors at the recent Sydney round of the ISSF World Cup put a drop on the top round 'in the magazine for each series during the rapid fire event. I imagine that it's benefit is more cerebral than physical as they were all using top quality ammunition. But if it doen't hurt, why no...

That's great Rapid. I saw Barry's name up on the board at my club (SIPC) and was going to give him a call when I can get my hands back on my GSP.

So much for budgets! Both the ...
