Friday Night Steel 8-13-10

On the Left a MKIII 22/45. On the right a MKII 22/45. Notice the differences?

The obvious one is the little cutout on the MkIII mag; I assume that has something to do with the mag disconnect?

 

[Chefcook]

You don't have to have a lot of mags. Just don't miss!

Now that is timeless advice, my strategy of yore when I used to shoot IPSC with a 9mm in minor power factor. If ya just don't miss it don't matter LOL...

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

You'll need it pal, I'm runnin' the 870

I'm going to try to make it this time and bring the family along for moral support. I am considering bringing the 870 that is in my trunk but it is only 4+1. Would make for some interesting shooting.

DO EET!!!!

You use bird shot or what? Where is the best place to get some?

Dicks carries a light trap load round.

You're in Beech Grove... there's a certain INGO Advertiser shop that might be able to help you.

 

[VUPDblue]

I use #8 or #7.5, and I buy it in the 100 round valu-paks from Wally World. I would advise you not to run the silver-brassed Remington or Winchester loads because they could get sticky in your 870, it's a known issue with 870s and those loads. If you can get the Federal, you should do so.

 

[Chefcook]

Federal value packs are $22 at Wally World..

 

[rhino]

What are you bowing down to me for? I was talking about you, Simon6101, bigcraig and bwframe!

Oh, and rhino, but that goes without saying.

HAH! I am in the public library right now with a high speed connection so I was able to look at the video.

I am quite dashing, even though that footage was pre-head scar. I'd prefer that more of my face showed, but we can't have a cameraman downrange (unless he works for that company in Tennessee).

I also noticed that the way I hold on the foreend of my rifle has changed a little since then.

That may have been the last or one of the last times I shot FNS too!

I think I am going to bring a little 1100 of mine that is only 3+1 so we can start a club, less is better. Doc prefers I cut down the recoil on my shoulder a bit if possible. I may even grab my Beretta 303 20 gauge instead.

It be more fun to use the "what."

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

00 buck or slugs would be a real treat.

I wish I was shooting something fancy. I'm just gonna shoot my Glock 19, running Federals, thru Limited. Assuming that's the one where I can run full capacity. I don't know if there is an advantage running limited vs production. But I just like the idea not having to count out 10 rounds when I load up.

 

[downrange72]

Logistically, I'm out. I may meet up at Bdubs afterwards. I ran out of bullets while reloading. I won't get replenished for 10 days per Black Bullets. Had to buy factory to get me through the next two weekends.

I'm shooting FNS then Instructional league Sat. then USPSA Sun. then laying low for a while. (finances and personal) I could "Loan" you some of my factory stash if you are shooting 9mm. I'm sure I'll get it back from you and your brother in the form of tuition from J&M reloading university some day.

Go Production and load 10. It'll make you slow down and aim.

Really? I didn't know that. I'll plan on doing that, thanks!

 

[Chefcook]

On the Left a MKIII 22/45. On the right a MKII 22/45. Notice the differences? Now both work in my MK III 22/45; however, I read on Rimfirecentral.com plenty of post about MKII mags not working in MKIII pistols. I guess my point is why get a MKII mag for a MKIII Gun?

The Mark III/ 22/45 Mag I picked up today has a different base plate and does not fit in my Mark III...

 

[singlesix]

OK, there are two different pistols: Mark III and 22/45 Mark III. So you must have a Mark III and not a 22/45 Mark III. If you picked it up at PSS than Bob will swap it out no questions.

Anyone have a Spare Mark III mag you can let Chefcook use for FNS, just in case he can't make it to PSS by Friday?
