Thanks for the reply Mike. Good luck in Oxnard. Dan

You are your club are definitely raising the bar Mike. Your scores, and your teammates, are substantially higher than what I'm seeing from the rest of the world. Would you care to share your opinion why you have had such success in so short a time? Do you feel your gun has an inherent accuracy...

Well put Jim, I agree 100%. While I have never been to a match that uses electronic scoring as it stands now I have no interest in attending one. Dan

Lot A from March 2011. If anyone has any they would like to sell please let me know. Dan obturate at juno.com

Super shooting Dave and Paul. It is a good thing the miss's made me go to NS, I would have got my butt kicked in Salem had I gone! Dan

Finished length will be between 22 and 24". Dan

I have a 28" Benchark blank in .22 airgun available. Dan

24"ish, 1:18", 4 grooves. DAn

If you are interested in a .177, stainless steel, .75" OD, lapped, choked, US made barrel, let me know. They won't be cheap, over $400 for a blank. There will be a substantial risk, this is new idea and I can't make any guaranties that they will be as good as the super barrels. What I expect to...

I hear you won first in LV, congratulations! I also heard Paul did very well. Post some photos if you have any. Dan

I have no problem with electronics in airguns, hell I'm even designing one now. My only concern is remote triggers used in matches. I can only imagine the uproar that would ensue if I showed up at a field target match with a remote trigger. Dan P.S. Mike, please don't take my stand on this...

My feeling is that the game should entail at least a little bit of physical skill. A remote trigger would allow one to fire the gun without actually having any part of their body in contact with it. If your finger, palm, and cheek are touching the gun then you need to be aware of breathing...

I can't see the advantage to the sport by ruling out electronic guns. I can understand banning remote triggers that allow one to fire the gun without even touching the gun but a trigger on the gun whether mechanical or electronic makes no difference. How do you define an electronic gun? What if...

Holy cow Paul, great shooting. Dan

Mike, I heard through the grapevine that you are in search of barrels. I have a few both in .22 and .177 available. If you are interested the best way to communicate with me is by email, obturate at juno.com. Dan

I suspect the guns were warmer than the ambient air and that was affecting visibility due to thermals. Dan

Thanks Paul for holding the match. The mirage was definitely difficult. Strange thing was that right after a shot it cleared. I discovered if I blew hard along the barrel it would go away for a few seconds. The new super stardestroyer regulator for the Sumo appears to work well. Here are a few...

Nice shooting guys. Sorry I couldn't make it. Dan

I think you will find that when you travel to different venues what works for a condition in your backyard may not be the same at the shoot. I feel the best approach is to shoot plenty of sighters and gauge the current conditions. If you find an unpredictable condition try not shoot during it. Dan

Thank you very much Paul for holding the match, it is appreciated. Boy I wish I knew on relay one what I knew on relay 6. The barrel I used in the last three relays has shot 250s with four different pellets now, JSB 8.4, 10.2, CPH, and HN 10.6. It is the best all around barrel I've ever used. Dan
