Limited Optics Division

STI DVC LO

  • Borrowing Lee P’s STI DVC setup for Limited Optics
  • Polymer grip from Open Edge
  • Sig Romeo 3XL dot
  • Gas pedal
  • MBX 140mm mags (24, 23rnd)
  • 124gr PD RNHP RN loads (4.1gr N320, Fiocchi SPP primers, 1.12 OAL)

Romeo 3XL came in, and replaces the flickering RTS2.

Zeroed at Shootstraight right before the match (15yd zero) using 124gr (Berrys/Xtreme/PD) loads.

Stage 2

  • Blended left array and right array. Trying to keep up with baseline (“maxtrap”) splits. Slowing down for the tuxes.
  • Clean; 4th out of 44.

Stage 3

  • 3 positions, splitting the far right array of 2 between the 2nd and 3rd positions instead of through the port before the 2nd position for a 4th position.
  • Clean; 16th, but 2 C-Ds too many. Need more As.

Stage 4

  • Sound plan with more straight line travel, rather than bendy, even uprange travel.
  • Extra on the steel; this puts me right at my capacity.
  • Called a high shot on the 2nd to the last target but didn’t makeup (actually couldn’t). M on the hardcover.
  • 1M; 22nd.

Stage 1

  • Classifier. Same as from Ruskin a few matches ago. Weak hand requirement on the last 3 targets.
  • Same plan as from Ruskin a few matches ago.
  • NS on the last target while shooting weak hand. At least it broke the perf.
  • 1NS; 28th.

Stats: 64A, 16C, 5D, 1M, 1NS (Previous WAC LO stats: 53A, 22C, 2D, 1M)

The Good

  • Good A-C ratio.
  • Stage 4
    • Alphas.
    • Good splits but slowing down for the tuxes (target appropriate).
    • Nothing special but good basics. GOOD BASICS.
  • 3XL runs, nice big dot.
  • PD loads run.
  • Consciously trying to speed up splits.
  • I can run.

Needs Improvement

  • Clean match.
  • Need speed on splits and target appropriate splits.
  • Keep up maintenance on the right leg so I can keep running.

Finished 17th out of 44 overall and 4th out of 10 in LO.
