I am seriously planning to be mate. It is been hosted by our club so it would be rude not to be there.😆

If at all possible, reload on the move right? We've done drills where we reloaded on the move between targets and not. The difference is normally less than 0.3 seconds (if measurable at all). So apart for forming mussel memory, why is doing static reloads important?

That's pretty fast. I am such a clumsy bugger I try to do it before moving but sometimes the next firing position allows a reload that doesn't matter how fast you do it.

I am heading up for club day now.
Hopefully we have some good stages planned.
I will see how many mags I fumble with today😆

Just come home to get more ammo.

Had the range to myself so did a bit of mag change practice.
Surprisingly I was averaging 1.6 secs shot to shot with my .40, static and pretty consistantly hitting A zones at 7m.
Heading back up for a match now.

Making up .3 seconds in reloads, transitions, movement and shot splits every time you shoot is the difference between being stuck in b grade or getting to gm Theres a reason why the pros make it look easy but gracefully slow at the same time.

A little practise upstairs at home tonight.

Load up some dummy rounds to fill your mags with. There's a big difference in weight and how much pressure they take to seat properly.

My ignorant 2c worth. Try bringing your pistol & hand in slightly closer which will smooth out your mag release and twist into one bit of movement. Currently you've got 2 distinct steps, mag release and twisting to look into magwell to feed.

Oh and btw, you just gave us video proof of a low load, that'll be 10 press ups at the next training/ mini match haha.

last time we played that game, it was 10 per mag change. I'm I up for 30 then?

Also, they are not that low, are they?

It was only the first mag you put in, the rest were good.
