Anyway I also shot a No Name 1911 in 9mm ran 100% sorry @fieldgrade
How many reloads did you do on the clock? Get back to me with the hard facts.
After almost 2 years, I finally found my timer and was able to bring it out this past weekend to check myself and my shooting partners times. We were shooting at 6 inch round steels , quantity of 6 rounds at 15 yards and competing against each other. It was amazing how much time we were able to shave off as the Bill drill went on. I think using a timer will help any speed orientated or competition shooter reduce their times because it forces you to improve. Try different draw techniques and see what works best for you..But just remember, a slightly slower hit beats a real fast miss ever time..A buddy and I went to PHA today. Ran him through a couple of drills to see what he needed to work on, and I did some myself. I was getting consistent 1.6-1.8 draw to first round head shot, at 5-7 yards. I'm gonna get me one of those dang wizard shirts @BatteryOaksBilly, sooner or later, probably later, lol.

Yes, and I had a great day! 2 targets were with the G19, 2 with the 1911 in .45, most at 9 feet, with one at 15 feet, or whatever it says on the actual target!

I took some advice (!) and went closer in with my distance, and tried to get nice tight groups. Not so great with the G19, but not bad with the .45! I'm always happy when shooting either of the 1911s, so it was a good day at the range.
Like I always say, it is easier to get one-hole groups with really big bullets.Yes, and I had a great day! 2 targets were with the G19, 2 with the 1911 in .45, most at 9 feet, with one at 15 feet, or whatever it says on the actual target!

It does help me quite a lot! LOL.Like I always say, it is easier to get one-hole groups with really big bullets.
Too bad I can’t find anything that shoots 2” bullets.It does help me quite a lot! LOL.
I only ask because I find all my guns run great...As many as necessary and of course all were done SLOWWWWWLY. I am sure a snails space compared to you.

till the shot timer goes off.
If something is going to come off the rails, be it me, the gun, the mags, the gear, or the ammo, that’s when it rears its head.
For me anyway.
That shit looked hilarious, should've taken a picture.And I got to use one of Mikes 30 round AR mags in my bolt action lol
NEXT TIME!That shit looked hilarious, should've taken a picture.
Never heard of that, what and where in Fayetteville? Outside, I'm guessing? My place is strictly indoors. lol.“The Range Complex” in Fayetteville.

I love the PHA range, I used to really like the speed steel matches they used to hold there. I would become a member there if they didn't charge a large initiation fee.Four hours of 1:1 training yesterday.
Went to PHA today to attempt the latest rimfire challenge. Also had two loaded .40 mags leftover from class yesterday, so I stopped at one of the pistol bays and practiced drawing, prepping the trigger, and hitting steel.
TL/DR: I started out poorly and finished with satisfactory improvement - which is enough for a Christmas Eve short session.
Function tested my 10 new PMAGs, which gave me an opportunity to spend some time on my grip. Due to age and physical issues, I have to work hard on my grip consistency, hand placement, grip tension, stance, shoulder position, hand-eye coordinationetc. ad infinitum - which is very frustrating to me. Ican still remember when muscle memory carried me through without having to spend so much time and effort on grip fundamentals, but neuropathy plays funny tricks on all the extremities.
It is a great day!
Sorry you have to deal with that. I got mine from chemo, and it's hard to describe hands and feet being at the same time numb and painful!but neuropathy plays funny tricks on all the extremities.
