The July scores are up over at Billll's Idle Mind (Click); this was Billll's first time hosting Mr. C's monthly shooting match, and it was a good contest. It was also a first for me, because I finally managed to make all the points on one of my targets (It was close, though). Good thing for me that Mr. C didn't get one in, because he would have figured a way to make 25 points.
Really big news; my little brother Chester the jeweler has entered his first match, and he did pretty well. He takes after our mother (Bea) and he shoots a .45. I see that Danno and his son both shot the match with a Single-Six, a favorite of mine. I have been neglecting my Single-Six of late because of cataracts. I shoot much better sighting through glass nowadays, and have been letting the iron-sighted guns rest. My eyes aren't bad enough for surgery yet, but it is a frustration. Danno, if you haven't installed a lighter trigger return spring on that Single-Six, unhook one side of the factory spring before your next range session. Jeff Quinn at GunBlast.com calls it a Poor-Boy Trigger Job, and it will put your trigger pull between 2 and 3 pounds.
The August contest will be up shortly over at Carteach0.http://carteach0.blogspot.com/
Many Thanks, Billll, for hosting a great match!
