Re: Wow
I have not paid attention to Smallbore for nearly two decades, and I’m super surprised to learn about how the sport has changed. I started shooting smallbore in 1977 as a teenager. I attended the 1978 and 1980 National Matches, and did a clinic at the OTC in 1979 IIRC there were over 500 competitor...

Re: Pardini SP for sale in MA
I have this same model which I purchased many years ago right here on TT. I think I paid $950 + shipping and transfer fees. But that was a loooong time ago. I'm not suggesting that is a starting price either... its worth much more than that today. That gun is a tack driver and a tank. I never had a ...

Re: Pardini SP for sale in MA

Sorry I not an active member of this community, but like I said haven't been shooting in a while. not looking to ship, but if anyo...

Re: Non-verbal coaching
I don't think USA Shooting maintains its own rules anymore. They only apply the issf rules.

Just exchange spacers and screws when you change positions.

Re: Sporter to Precision Growing Pains
Go buy a lefty jacket, glove and sling if you can afford it. Maybe $200-$250 total. Then donate it back to the club. That's how most clubs get their equipment over time.
See if you can design a spacer from wood to extend the butt plate of the rifle.

Re: Identifying when your athlete is outperforming their rifle.
I put together this powerpoint for the parents on my team to understand the options available for upgrading equipment. May be of some use here.

Re: Shooting Coat Materials
New more modern material is available but more expensive than the canvas/Leather options. I have a Capapie suit and absolutely love it. I got lucky and bought a well fitting 'off the shelf' jacket and pants when they were introduced in the US when I was at Camp Perry. It stays stiffer longer and if ...

Re: Fund Raising
Midway limits the amount you can withdraw each year. But if you have access to a large starting amount it's a great idea.

Re: Air Rifle - Front sight aperture size depending on skill
If I'm reading the chart correctly, the numbers are the minimum not the optimum, ie you may need a larger size. Correct! I keep the size chart handy for my junior rifle team. Easy rule of thumb if you are measuring in inches: The distance from front sight to the eye (not rear sight) roughly corresp...
