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

    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.

    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.

    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.
