« On the Chicago suit regarding the Chicago Second Amendment Case. | Main | “The Roll-Out of the Marc Tucker/Obama/Arne Plan” »

Yesm, I had a slight departure from blogging this weekend.....

TMEW and I had some other plans for the weekend, and during the "down time", I just couldn't summon what was needed to put ideas to fingertips (e.g., writer's block). 

S'all right though, as yesterday I spent putting my fingertips to a different purpose: we spent the afternoon and early evening at an intro level marksman class the the Belmont Firearms and Range.  We've done our share of making small holes in perfectly good pieces of paper - just didn't have it down pat how to make perfectly larger holes out of collections of smaller ones.  We've learned that it is harder, much harder, than it looks.

Well, we passed and now are much better at it at 10 & 15 yards (for me, 10 rounds in a 2" grouping three out of four mags!) - not so shabby for a couple of duffers that just started this new hobby this past fall....

Specifics? What firearm, what caliber, what ammo? :)
For me, a Ruger P95 9mm using Remington 9mm Lugar 124 grain MC l9mm2 - good enough for short range plinking (I am in no ways ready for match level stuff - nor the expense of such). TMEW uses a Walther 922 in 22LR. Amazingly enough, the CCI Blazer brand (re: dirt cheap) works VERY well where FIOCCCI won't. CCI Mini-Mag also provides good results along with Remington Golden. Her's is JUST so picky!
Have a Sig Mosquito that's picky about it too (22LR). CCI Mini-Mags work the best, haven't tried Fiocchi yet but suspect that it may work (it's a hi velocity plated round nose like the CCI). Play around with the weight of the lube for the slide, maybe a little lighter. That's what I like best about 1911's; mine eats anything in 45 you give it.
