While Shelley is taking the 10-8 Consulting 1911 class yesterday, I was on the range shooting. The guys at 10-8 were kind enough to give me some of the .45 ACP match ammo from Black Hills that they use in USPSA and IDPA matches. There are two match loads, one is a 185 grain...

I’ll be heading out to Springfield, MA this weekend for the 2012 IDPA Indoor Nationals. Once I shoot this match I will have finally shot the “big three” IDPA matches: the Carolina Cup, Nationals/World Championship, and the Indoor Nationals.

I am probably the worst blog reader in the galaxy. My usual stops every morning are Tam and Say Uncle. Twice a week I’ll usually hit up PA Gun Blog and Robb, and every Friday I’ll go to Pistol-Training.Com to read through Todd’s updates. Everything beyond that though is pretty much catch as catch...

“Caleb, why don’t you reload?  You’d save so much on ammo and can custom tune your rounds!”   The reason I don’t reload is because I have the attention span of a small child all hopped up on Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs.  Because of that, I know that if I started reloading, something like this...
