August 7, 2018
Open Division
Shooting the Open Edge in .40SW using 155gr BB RN loads.
Stage 2
- From the left, start on the far target, then the one up close while leaving.
- Run right, then while getting into position, the first one on the right, then the one to its left. The second looked off so I make it up (didn’t need it). Swing all the way left for the one with the no-shoot.
- Run down to my index (gap on the right fault line), then pause for the one through the port.
- Cut right off bounds, then back in for the remaining targets right to left.
- Clean. 13th out of 43.
Stage 3
- Start looks similar to the previous, with one up close and one all the way back. Since we were starting from the start stick all the way to the right, I reverse the order and take the one up close while ‘landing’.
- Go all the way right, pause for the one on the left, then move up along the line, taking the 2 on the right up close on the move.
- Finish on the remaining paper.
- Clean; 11th.
- The plan was copied after watching other shooters and seeing better positions from my original plan.
Stage 4
- Starting on the left, left side of the wall: paper, popper, paper.
- Step left, popper paper.
- Reload on the run to the right, then stop for the array on the right.
- Run all the way left for the left array and the single on the right.
- Step right for the headshot and upside down hard cover.
- Clean, 8th.
Stage 1
- Start on the right for all the steel. I did this so if I made makeups, I knew to reload in between.
- Step left for the middle right array.
- Go all the way left but start on the middle left array and hard lean on the left most.
- Finish on the left array.
- Clean again, 9th.
The Good
- Clean!
- Steel 1 for 1
- Stage planning and copying (stage 3)
- Gun ran 100%
- Running around ok now.
- Keeping shooting on the move to retreats and landings (while getting into position).
Needs Improvement
- Work on grip to control the gun better and improve splits.
- Continue with PT so I can move faster
FInished 8th out of 43 overall and 2nd out of 5 in Open.
