I’ve made some good progress this year. In my 2006 New Year’s resolution I said that “it will be nice to climb out of the Marksman ranks this year” and, effective 05/23/2006, I formally started competing in the Sharpshooter classification as per the NRA.

For what it may be worth, I learned something unexpected in dry-fire.

The Problem After loading several hundred rounds of ammunition not too long ago, I then discovered that two primers had been seated sideways and one upside down.

I tested my two 1911s, the ball gun and the wadder, on a Ransom Rest today.

I’ve been concentrating on the 45 hardball gun for several weeks (seems like months) and other than two 900s per month on the 22 and 45 wad gun, I’ve been shooting almost nothing else.

For Bullseye 2700s that last all day (typically 8:30AM to about 3:00PM) I have adopted a very specific diet.

When we do anything dangerous such as shooting guns, reloading ammunition or jumping out of airplanes, it is very helpful to have *several* overlapping things that, any one of which, will prevent or catch an otherwise fatal mistake.

Something interesting has been happening the past few weeks. As anyone who visits this blog on a regular basis may have noticed, I haven’t been writing much.
