    9mm using Clays

    In the past it hasn't been easy to find a lot of 9mm load data using Hogdon Clays powder. Plus there hasn't been much data for 135gr lead rn in general. I've wanted to load using Clays because I have a lot of it. Trying to save Sport Pistol, Bullseye, WST for other calibers. Clays isn't the...

    My kids came to my match

    My oldest daughter and husband brought my two grandsons (6 and 8) out to our local USPSA match. None of them had seen me shoot a match before. They saw the last 3 stages. Grandsons were high fiving me after the stage. I've got my SIL out a few times to the range and finally got my daughter out...

    Gridiron match

    Headed to the Gridiron USPSA match in Linden, Ca. tomorrow. We start in the afternoon. This match started years ago as Single Stack vs Production. Now they've added Open vs PCC and Limited vs Carry Optics. Looks like fun. I'm shooting SS 45acp. After this I'm going to try shooting one of my...

    Why do you participate in shooting matches?

    There's now a second topic being discussed about why shooters don't participate in shooting matches. Let's see why people do choose to participate in matches. It is true that you may go to a match for 4 or 5 hours to shoot for a couple of minutes. I find that the opportunity to shoot the...

    Local Sheriff/ 2nd Amendment

    I live in northern California. I wish Ca. was a shall issue state, but it's not. It is up to the local county Sheriff or Chief of Police to approve concealed weapons permits. If you live in some of the big cities (San Fransico) you can just about forget getting a permit. The smaller...

    S & W 686 six or seven shot

    I'm looking at getting a Smith and Wesson 686 4" revolver. Partly just because I want a double action revolver to shoot and maybe some IDPA or Steel Challenge later. How much stronger is the 6 shot version compared to the seven shot. Also in some of the shooting sports you can have a 7 shot...
