Quote HistoryQuoted: Damn...another one that doesn't know the difference between training and competition.

Damn...another one that doesn't know the difference between training and competition. No wonder there are so many crappy shooters on this forum could be worse, they could just be crappy trolls like you  I train with my competition gun, why would you not? I'm going to run my Glock for weeks and dry fire it 10,000 times a day so that when I draw my 2011 on the clock my grip angle is wrong and I cant find my sight picture....yup makes perfect sense |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I man what kind of psycho can’t spot for themselves. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I've got a dope card taped to my rifle now after forgetting it on one of my runs... We also didn't allow spotters to give corrections this year... about half the runners cleared rifle with targets out to 550. I man what kind of psycho can’t spot for themselves. I can spot all day long with my PRS rifle but with most gas guns and LPVOs its very very hard to spot misses at those distances and the chances of you catching trace is little to none. An experienced shooter can look for grass/dirt/etc. to make the call but you also have to know your rifle dope. |

No issue at all, a lot of shooters have this thing called freedom to choose and freedom to buy what they want, and it's biased people like you who try to shit on things using fallacies to argue by. |

Getting out of B takes training with a focus on what you're not good at It can take awhile to move out of B class though... I've seen you use "B class" a few times to try and indicate someone isn't training. There's a big difference between someone who just shows up and shoots matches and has had classifier hook up to get them to B class, and someone actively training, and just hasn't had the classifiers line up to class up. Both would still be forever B class though, as they haven't classed up yet. |

Shooting the classifiers like I did every stage led to a ton of sandbagger comments though, and match results far above B class... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Not moving up to A. B class is the easiest to get to. You can get there by just shooting, without any training. I don't agree with that at all. You might be able to get to B without any training by getting lucky enough on(or reshooting) enough classifiers, but then you just get dragged by Cs at matches who are actually putting real work in. Stand and shoot classifiers(most of them are that) really aren't indicative of much other than one's stand and shoot ability. They rarely test movement or decision making/stage planning ability. I'd much rather get a match bump(which is much more indicative of your overall skill level) than get it through a classifier. C is much easier to get to than B. Anyone who shoots even a little bit generally skips right over D and starts as a C, but most people aren't going to get to B by just shooting a weekly match and no other training. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Staccato is to guns as overlanding is to trucks. Impractical, expensive Instagram fad. User name is accurate but the rest on both accounts, is not true. I want a truck to get to places normal vehicles cannot get to and it has to be a truck to carry some rather large things. I also never cared for a 2011 until I saw what they can do and have done at matches. Neither are fads nor are they impractical or just for Instagram only. |

I got the 6360RDS modified for the XC with WML. I sort of wish I went with the 6390, but I can remove the extra retention if I want to, and generally leave the secondary hood thing over the red dot disengaged when in use and only engage it if I am not planning to draw the gun in a hurry. RDR is good about telling you if one of their holsters will fit your gun if it isn't listed and you send them a question through their website. I wanted one of these holsters for the new S&W M&P 10mm Performance Center and they got back to me quickly (same day) as to whether they had something that would work (they did not sadly). |

Shooting the classifiers like I did every stage led to a ton of sandbagger comments though, and match results far above B class... I won't worry about it, classification will come when it does. Winning the match or placing higher because you didn't lose 60pts on a classifier will benefit you more in the long run. Match management is an important skill. If you are a B class mixing it up with A then thats better than a A scoring with Bs. |

I agree that people aren't getting to B by just showing up at matches and not shooting outside of that. You can get there with fun practice, put up a couple of open targets at 7 yards and hammer away at them. You'll gain some skill, but waste a lot of time and money. It's not training though I started in D. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I did a bit better than that That's good then. Now it is time to find out what exactly is keeping you from shooting an A classifier when shooting relaxed at match pace. Is it the draw, the points, reload, nerves. Once you figure that out, work on that until it's second nature. For me, making master was mental. I went to a classifier match and a mentor of mine said if you shoot to make Master, you won't, but if you shoot to win the match, you will. It was difficult to not think about my classification while shooting the match, but I ended up winning the match and making Master with nice consistent HFs Going to GM was harder as I had to clean up accuracy a lot and work on visual patiences . |
