    Shooting with shoulder injury

    Hi Everyone, I recently (2 weeks ago) separated my shoulder (completely, called grade 3 separation) where the three ligaments joining the collar bone on my right side (I'm RH'd) to my shoulder and shoulder blade were completely torn and am now recovering from that. This is something they no...

    25m standard match

    I've been shooting the 25m standard match (22 rimfire, single-handed) for about six years now, with a Kimber .22 1911. My scores have gotten to the point where I want to go a little bit further and get first at the club. I'm always in the top five, and a couple of months ago stumbled upon a...

    Wilson 9mm ETM mags

    Hey everyone I'm looking at getting a S&W 1911 9mm (Pro Series) and they come with (a) Wilson ETM mag. The ETM mags from Wilson I have seen have a different base-plate to the one the S&W comes with, from pictures at least, and I have not seen on S&W's website magazines for the gun. I...

    Laws and Life

    After reading and being part of the "discontinuing assault" thread I started thinking about this situation. Because of where I am the laws I have to abide by restrict access and use of firearms and that from a legal standpoint protection of life or property has never been a valid reason for...

    Metallic Silhouette Rules

    I have a S&W 686 6" barrel, the crown on it was pretty poor when I got it so I got the tools to re-crown it. Halfway through cutting it I thought what about how this will affect my category in metallic silhouette, the primary reason I got it. I shoot in Big Bore Standing category. Standing...

    Kimber .22 Pistol

    Anyone got the Kimber .22 Pistol? What is it like? Not the conversion, but I'd like to hear about that too. Anyone got both and can compare? I think it would make a pretty good self-defence gun, with the fastest .22s you could find. Weighs 23 ounces, no recoil (basically), VERY accurate, 10...

    .243 Good / Bad ?

    My dad has and has always had since I was born, a .243 rifle. I haven't seen it for years, but it was an aniversary present from my mum many moons ago. I'm pretty sure it was a winchester anyways. What is everyone's opinion of the cartridge? I found some profiles in a magazine of Winchester...

    My first tattered target

    Hi Everyone, I've finally done my pistol induction, it was a lot of fun, even the sitting down lecture bit, since there were four of us it was very relaxed. This wasn't even practice really, just familiarisation with handling a pistol. We didn't have all that much time to shoot. The outer...

    Lee Pro 1000 Press

    What is everyone's opinion of this press? In terms of quality, is it good or bad, better or worse than a Dillon 650? It seems to be cheaper, and has gadgets like an automatic bullet placer, so I'm wondering why I don't here about it as much as Dillon. Thanks!

    Powder Theory

    I've been reading up on reloading, and have ended up comparing two powders against each other. I want to reload 9mm ammo. The powders I am comparing are ADI's AP-50N and AP-70N 50 is faster burning than 70. The ADI website says that the 70N goes with 115 grain bullets, and for 120...
