    IDPA/IPSC aiming?

    I've been a target shooter for most of my life. Since I've gotten into pistol action shooting (IPSC & IDPA), I've been frustrated by my lack of speed and I think it's due to my thought process. That is to say, I'm employing a thought process and thinking takes too long :D I used to follow the...

    Is it better to work up loads for semiautos using the lightest bullets in the box, the heaviest, or doesn't matter?

    Average "liberal" not really anti-gun?

    I stayed home from work today (too much partyin' on a Thursday night :o ) and did some research about last week's D.C. handgun ban reversal. Along the way I checked in on the Anti-gun thread. This led me to ponder just how many of the internet "liberals" were indeed gun-grabbers. The results...

    Moving targets

    My biggest problem shooting USPSA right now is moving targets. I don't have any problems when I'm shooting at stationary stuff, but moving targets force me to think about timing my shots, which basically leads to anticipating the break and my accuracy suffers. I don't have the money or means...

    Chuck Rangel: stand-up comic

    Rangel just said the funniest thing I've heard all week. In the midst of the flap over his "who wants to live in Mississippi" comment, he says: "I just love New York so much I can't understand why everyone doesn't want to live here". Pure comedy gold there :D

    Rush comes clean

    http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/da...roll.guest.html You see? He's been screwing with your head because he believes that it's more important to defeat Democrats than it is to embrace Conservativism. As a result, he helped blind you to the very real problems that have cropped up. He goes...
