Re: Good shooting glove

The Monard glove with the hard blue backing material is excellent. I bought my first one at Camp Perry in 2011 or so, and used it heavily for several years. I bought a new one in around 2015, and switched to it because it seemed silly to keep the brand new one as a spare. I've been wearing that one ...

If you have any issues with setup, don’t hesitate to call SCATT USA. Alex has been very helpful and friendly when I’ve had questions.

Re: Scatt Setup Mac

Like Th said above, just download the SCATT Expert software for Mac OS from the SCATT web site here:

https://www.scatt.com/downloads/

Nothing to it. I've been using an MX-02 since about 2014 on my MacBook. Previously had to use parallels and windows, but the Expert program is Mac native.

Re: Love this quote

It is an individual right to bear arms in defense of " the security of a free State[.]" If one insists on bringing up that old bugaboo, context, one is obliged to tether his anchor to the founders' aversion to standing armies. Hence their reliance on an armed population - militia - to def...

"...it's pretty easy to see that more gun laws do not result in less gun crime." Well, that's certainly true if it's your opinion going in. Our founders were, above all else, profound humanists. They created this nation, not as an abstract philosophical exercise, but as a real-world attem...

Re: UPS STORES - Disappointing - NOT SHOOTING FRIENDLY

You can always create your label on the UPS website, and then schedule for a driver to pick it from your house. It costs a little extra (like $12 when I use it), but it's worth it to me just for the reduced hassle.

Re: Moving powder, primers in summer heat

Powder and primers get shipped around the country in non-climate controlled trucks all the time. I'm sure they arrived at your house or the store you purchased them from in a truck that wasn't air conditioned. I wouldn't worry about it.

Re: A National Match Discussion

I really dislike wading through calf deep mud, that's really just reconstituted pig feces from 100+ years ago. And smells like it too.... 2016 was not as bad as far as the mud goes, but Camp Perry was under a drought then too. A slightly raised berm would solve that problem. I'm also not a big fan ...

As a shooter who is just sort of on the fringes of competitive smallbore, I'm kind of surprised that no one is commenting on this.

Re: Are Palma sights suitable for smallbore competition?

Not uncommon at all. Warner even makes 1/8MOA plates for their rear sights if you find 1/4 to be too coarse for you. I believe they are $25 each, or $50 for the set. I have a 1/8MOA Phoenix rear sight on my smallbore rifle, and honestly I would prefer 1/4 adjustments as that is what all of my other ...
