Yeah but that AK round falls flat on its face at around 300! Come back to the dark side and get a 6.5 G upper!

Based on performance alone he should be gone for sure. Which gets back to why Kelly ended up on the block 2 times in a row. Methinks those on the show are seeing something we are not(well some of us anyway ). My prediction is JJ or Blake as it has been all along. The only way either of them is getting shut down is if there is some stupid competition that boils down more to luck than skill like marble shooting or something! And I dont mean shooting at marbles, I mean marble shooting LOL.

Matty, no way bro! Shooting costs me WAY more. Heck an outing on the bike costs me maybe 8 bucks in gas and the way I drive it my car gets better gas mileage. Lets see, yesturdays range trip... Match fee 20. Lunch 10. Gas and tolls 20. Ammo aroung $90. Total 140 :shock: Cost of Bike its self vs Firearms... well lets just say I have a fairly expensive bike and my firearms and accessories are easily double.... And Devils Advocate, those are fighting words!!! :shhh:

I hate them both equally but if I had to choose, I hate the glock a little less because at least its a single mode of fire....

Im never threatened based on age, only holster wear! Im not THAT much of a Kelly hater, im just unimpressed with him so far. I just have yet to see him pull off any shooting feat that made me go OK now I see the skills.....

sirsloop, I have to disagree. I know WAY to many peole that have made BIG money on firearm appreciation. Especially in the class 3 catagory.

I think Kelly is getting lucky myself. He got lucky Andre was retarded and couldnt figure out poker with the hand hierarchy cheat sheet staring him in the face. He got lucky that Brad had shitty throws because other than his one 3 shot string he was behind.

To add to that, if Im not mistaken, the twist is WAY wrong for a .22. I have been told the way to roll is with a dedicated .22 upper. For me though, I get concerned that getting used to the recoil and cadance of a .22 will hurt more than help in live fire. Shane

I buy the best quality I can afford in anything I do. I subscribe to the buy once cry once philosophy and the you get what you pay for philosophy. As with anything, finding the level of diminished returns for your own needs is they key. Not a lot of sense buying a 9k long range rifle rig to shoot at 50 yds or less.....ever. But if you are going to spend 600 to 800 bucks in ammo, 2k on a flight, housing and match fees 1 to 2 times a year, it makes perfect sense. If your going to buy a pistol, shoot it once and toss it in the safe only to come out to wow your friends... spend as little as possible but if your going to practice and compete (costing magnatudes more than the firearm its self) buy the best you can. If your life is going to rely on any of the above, again buy once cry once. The only time I would say I could get a feeling of buyers remorse are 2. I neglected a priority to buy a firearm. I fell for hype and it didnt live up to it. I try not to do either of these but... it happens :oops: Shane

So why does he keep ending up in elimination over the cowboy who cant shoot for sh!t? My guess is he must be an even bigger pecker than we see. Its the only explanation. Like Peter said, Kelly talks his way into eliminations LOL. BTW I think Peter is the strongest overall shooter for red team.

I think I shoot 1911's and black rifles pretty well as well as my long range rifles. Shotguns, however... not so good. I litteraly bought the shotty for 3 gun. This was from the match today. This is the second match I have attended and thus the second time shooting the shotty in 20 years! I managed to have 1 miss every string with the scatter gun. No misses with the rifle and only 1 miss with the pistol on 2 strings. (Lefty :roll: )

....who's going?

Tim, the issue like many tactical terms is its misuse, watering down, or being turned into a misnomer altogether. A double tap was always two aimed shots. But as the term spread, it became watered down and misused. In fact Ive noticed trainers getting away from the term altogether and using Controlled pairs, Comitted pairs, and hammers instead because of the ambiguity that has now attached its self to double tap. Then what happens is we start calling it Double tap's even when we know better so people understand what we are talking about LOL. A quick search turned this up. http://www.americanrifleman.org/Article ... 2052&cid=2 67gtonut, to your point when I played in the IPSC game way back when I was baffled how I could shoot a straight A match and come in near the bottom. Sped way up and got a lot more B,C and D,s and went straight to the top. Clearly that game rewards ok accuracy with emphisis on speed for the mortal classes.

Ty Ive been meaning to contact you. Need some 15 Rnd 308 Pmags and a PWS brake for an LMT MWS

There were some operations that were done on machines that did more than one part at a time but by and large it was all manually done by a bunch of guys standing in front of manual milling machines all day long.

The answer is..... what your rifle likes! Buy a box of FGMM 168's 175's, black hills, Corbon, any quality match ammo and see which one your gun likes. My AIAW LOVED FGMM168's. What is the twist rate on that barrel? Edited to add: Sorry Yeti , didnt see you already gave the same answer.

A double tap is two AIMED shots in rapid succession. Hammers are 2 shots with one site picture. I find the real key to hammers is knowing what distance you can perform them and remain on target. I am not a fan of the push pull method, just a good solid grip technique. Three targets at 10 yds. Both rounds on target. Standard config 5" GM. 230Grn Rem Ball ammo.

Im betting he was shot for his firearms.....

It all settles down once they realise your actually doing the hobbies you say your doing :twisted:

It was a pleasure meeting you as well. Had a great time tonight. I always like meeting people from the forum. That is one of the things that drew me to this forum was the opportunity to meet fellow local shooters! I got the chance to shoot NJPilot's CZ. This was the first one I ever shot. Had a nice trigger and a great NPA for me. I might have to get one so I can compete in stock service pistol Frank thanks for driving! BA, thanks for hosting MILTON SHOOT ME A PRICE ON THAT ACR!!!!!

Becaue all women are crazy, ALL OF THEM!

I dont use anything on the PT. Just a mechanical lock.

Frank, what time ya going? If I can get free we can ride up together if you like?

Hooray, an episode where the shooting exceeded the mandrama! But Adam is still a D!CK. He took top slot over Kelly as main assmunch on the show. LOL.

buy a 9 dollar one and an 18 dollar one. Practice on the cheap one. Know how to do it forever.....
