- Hitting clay pigeons with a football
Oklahoma State quarterback Brandon Weeden has a gun for an arm and wants to show it off. Weeden went on “Sport Science” this week to show off his accuracy and velocity by hitting moving clay pigeons with a football. According to the show, Weeden’s throws were going 48 miles per hour. At the same time Andrew Luck ate a half gallon of ice cream and watched Scooby Doo cartoons until he got scared.- Man vs Man Steel Match CJRPC April 29th

OBRAMS is a lot of fun. See ya'll in the morning.- Powder charge & OAL question?
Not bad... Just starting to research the USPSA loads i'd like to use. Think i can borrow that crono one day?- Powder charge & OAL question?
Thanks for the input guys. Yeah, they were REALLY soft. While researching load recipes, i came across one that was 3.2gr with a 115 bullets and OAL of 1.1, I wasn't willing to go that low. Figured I'd try the 3.6gr just to see if it would cycle. It did, but the cases practically dribbled out. 4.0 will be the lowest i go with W231 and just for steel. I also ordered some Berry's 124's & 147's to start putting together loads for USPSA.- This Sunday at OB

Seriously!!! What the F@#% was i doing?- This Sunday at OB
Bravo sir, bravo... I thought you said you didn't know how to edit video.- Powder charge & OAL question?
I'm new to reloading so please give me a pass if this question reeks of ignorance. Can the amount of powder charge and or OAL affect how clean it burns? The reason I ask... I recently put together 4 different loads for my Trojan 9mm. 4.2, 4.0, 3.8 & 3.6 grains of W231. All using Federal brass, Zero 115gr bullets, winchester primers & 1.15 OAL. I tested them out this morning and all of them cycled perfectly. But i noticed that after i shot 50 rounds of the 3.6 grain loads the muzzle was really black. The barrel was even worse. While cleaning i noticed that the rifling was not visible due to carbon build up. I've never seen that happen before. On Saturday, I put 300+ rounds of 4.0 grain reloads through it with almost no visible powder residue around the muzzle and the barrel was relatively clean. Any insights are greatly appreciated.- Old Bridge USPSA 4-22-12

I was just looking at the scores from the last event. Rich Skolsky is a fantastic carbine shooter and his rimfire times were twice as long as his centerfire. Tells me he had to REALLY pound that steel to make it fall. I'll just stick with the 9mm.- This Sunday at OB
I dunno about that Harry. That blurb was taken from their Knockdown Steel description. And a quick look at the match results from last November shows a rimfire carbine division. http://www.worldclasssteel.com/dnn/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=tR7MSiqtJvw%3d&tabid=125&mid=472- This Sunday at OB
Huh, the WCS site says that they have a rimfire rifle division... I might have to try that too. Knockdown steel Knockdown steel involves shooting large arrays of falling steel targets or various sizes in various arrangements as fast as you can. Shooting is from a fixed position behind a table on which all ammo, magazines, speedloaders, etc. may be placed; no special magazine holders or holster are needed to participate. Entry fees are $10 for Old Bridge members and $20 for everyone else forEACH match. The fees are higher because the monthly league match has a cash payout. Unlike static steel, the knockdown steel format is also shot with shotgun or pistol caliber carbine. Monthly league matches are presented on the first Sunday of each month from March to November. Once a year, on the first weekend of October, we present World Class Steel: Fields of Steel which is our large annual knockdown steel event. The monthly match begins at 9:00 a.m. and lasts until about 1pm, and consists of approximately 105 reactive targets distributed among four stages with each stage containing from 25 to 30 targets. Each target is calibrated so that it will fall with the minimum force of a 9mm bullet strike. Pistol, shotgun, and pistol caliber carbine are all shot during the same match. Cash prizes based on order of finish in each of four gun divisions are awarded using the Lewis System, a system designed so that, in addition to the topmost finishers, cash prizes are awarded also to shooters who finish in the second and bottom third rank. Prizes are awarded in each of the four gun divisions. For the pistol match, the divisions are Pistol Iron, Pistol Optics, Revolver Iron, and Revolver Optics. For the shotgun match, the divisions are Pump, Limited Auto, Open, and Rimfire Rifle. Each of these matches is fast-moving and they have proven to be quite popular, so come on out on the first Sunday of each month, March to November, you'll have lots of fun! - 5/6/12 - Speed on Steel @ Old Bridge
