Re: Season 3 - Round 3
Try to Stay Cool, and Keep em' 10's! Scrench Pah, not quite as hot or sweaty here by your standards mate, but still its reached 30C here today on the Bristol Channel, which is still a bit of a shock to a system used to more 12C, and as you can imagine the River Severn is having its say in the local...

Re: Firing Erratically
I just cant understand why people dont look after their pistols or rifles, all it takes is an oily rag wiped over after using the guns to keep the metal work nice. :) rgds kj68 :) I was flicking through UBC last night, as I partake in a couple of their comps, and was suprised at how many people are...

Re: Season 3 - Round 2
" I wish I had more guts (and time) to participate in something like that." Go on, you entered this one didn't you?! The UBC comp is mainly UK shooters, but the BSAOG comp is world wide, I shoot against another guy from here in the UK, a chap from Malta, and occasionally a guy from New Zealand.... t...

Re: Season 3 - Round 2
Yup, all old news to me mate, only do springers, none of that soulless PCP sh!te in my shed :snooty: To be fair I think its more to do with the fact I'm a bit shy of adjusting my sights once set, the reason is I'm currently top shot in the UBC 6yd comp and I'm also top of the BSAOG 6yd pistol comp a...

Re: Season 3 - Round 2
Well, I just shot and submitted my Rnd 2 scores, a bit of an improvement but still 4x 9s in there :oops: I HAVE to do something in regards my rest(!), I paid more attention this time to what was going on with the pistol while shooting on the rest (probably explains the abundance of 9 scores :roll: )...

Re: Season 3 - Round 2
All 10s!!! Pfft, show off! I tried 2 layers of masking tape on my UBC targets on the weekend, shot my first ever 50 x50 :dance: , it holds it together better than plain paper, bit more tearing than your experiment shows but then its 5 shots into the same bull so difficult to tell properly, also I su...

I'm well made up!!!!
I apologise for this post but I had to tell someone and the wife and step-son care little and less, and figured you lot might appreciate my success more.... I shot my first 50 x 50 with the Model 6M for my UBC 6 yard 1hand postal \../ \../ \../ I thought it to be none to shabby for someone who only ...

Re: little advice please
I push a felt pellet through the Model 6M everytime I finish shooting it, and always after around 50 or 60 shots.
RobinC has put up some good posts about barrel cleaning in target orientated barrels in the tech section on here, well worth a read though aimed at rifles.

Re: Season 3 - Round 1
Scrench, Believe it or not my rest as a height adjustable 3 legged walking stick I found in a house I was doing a clearance in about 2 weeks ago, I remember thinking 'oh, thats handy I have just the job for that', and in the back of the van it went..... It stands on my usual shooting bench just nice...

Re: Season 3 - Round 1
I don't know whether it could be construed to be cheating if I modified the targets with the aid of a fat black pen and a pair of compass' so I don't have to alter my sights for every discipline I enter with it..... Phil???? ATB Sean Alas, no. This would be altering the target. Part of the skill is...

Re: Season 3 - Round 1
Shot mine today, damn, that was hard work!! I wrongly assumed it would be dead easy, I mean what could be simpler.... find a rest at target height.... rest the pistol on it and blast away.... easy....and if your not getting 10s from a solid rest there's sumat wrong with you........ oh, how wrong can...
