Making a pile of bullets for USPSA match this weekend
« on: July 11, 2018, 10:28:57 AM »
I have a cousin coming in town this weekend and I've signed us up for the local USPSA match. I'll be shooting the buds special sleeper 75B and he will be running the new Ruger PC9 (wearing stars and stripes paint). I can't wait to make another pile of bullets (Angus load) on the 650. A couple months ago I failed to engage some targets on a few stages. My goal last time was to engage every target (which I did). This weekends goal will be calling the shots and not waiting for target confirmation (see the holes or hear the ping).

Will post footage later on, happy shooting guys!

How did your match go?  Also, perhaps more importantly, have you been back again?   I know this is a reply to your post from a couple of months ago but I hope you and your cousin had a good match!

Thanks,
My cousins wife wouldn't let him go. I still went and had a decent match. this is the first season I've shot USPSA so I'm counting this season as a learning season. There have been a few speed steel matches between now and then as well. All good fun. I'm working into long range and milsurp completions as well now.

Good to learn you were able to go and enjoyed yourself.  Always something new to learn and improve upon which is one of the things I really like about USPSA or, really, any of the shooting competitions I take part in.  Too bad for your cousin, though :)

What is the Angus load? 

Thanks

Precision Delta 124 JHP over VV n320. There is a thread about it over in the ammo section. Posted about 6 months ago.

Making bullets on Friday night and shooting matches Saturdays has become my routine for the pat year or so.

Lovin' it!

I try to stay 500 to 100 rounds ahead on my reloading but it is not always possible.

I shoot a lot of IDPA and have just started shooting a local USPSA match a few times. I have also shot a carbine match on Saturday that becomes an USPSA match on Sunday but have not shot the USPSA Sunday match yet.

It is surely different, it is hard for me not to "slice the pie" and have eight or nine shooting positions that can be shot in various ways at different times. But it is all shooting and all fun.

I would not have said my wife wouldn't let me go ;D
