I would posit that Max L is an anomaly and not representative of the skill level of a typical PCC shooter at the M/GM level (note the amount of 100% classifications achieved on the short hisstory of...
Generally, Open GMs will beat out PCC and CO shooters of equal classification. This may be because: (1) making GM in Open generally requires more skill than making GM in PCC (no offense PCC), (2)...
I find these discussions very subjective. As other's have eluded to in this thread the individual's experience, grip strength, gun type/weight, and ammunition will all play a role in the physics. ...
That says it all, couldn't agree more. The foundation of a good index is good eyes. Being able to focus on a very specific location and then snap the gun there with the least amount of extra...
Definitely index, but bio-mechanics refined and confirmed thorough lots of par time/precision work in live fire practice. Otherwise, you don't buy any time fishing for sights or dot at full...
I have mentioned this on another post, but as you transition from irons to a dot (and the dot is not on a dovetail) you will have to tilt the gun down down to find the dot during presentation. If...
Great insight. Another way to check these metrics is to look at your "pistol statistics" in USPSA once your results are loaded. As a general rule you wont win a match in minor divisions unless you...
Agreed - longer slides tend to result in less felt/perceived recoil, which also seems to make it easier to track the dot at speed. Weight helps as well. A long slide metal gun sitting right at...
I think grip is evolutionary. What you think is backing off or "loose grip" is still harder than when you first started shooting. It is relative to your experience/time on your gun. Over time your...
I went through the same thing when transitioning to a dot. When using iron sights, your eyes can track them closely as they rise and fall and make small corrections to your trigger pull as necessary...
Should PCC shooters rate the next classification down then (ie PCC M = Limited A)? Or should PCC classifications remain separate from pistol?
