The PARAcast
We’re going to do a show tonight. It will involve the latest production division talk, followed by some spicy takes on USPSA, and we may even talk about a match or two. Either way join us tonight as Kenny regales us with his thoughts on his new Beretta. We will also Answer questions. But only the cool questions. Well, maybe even the not so cool questions. We’re pretty open like that
 
Jacob Franklin Is Tom’s favorite tv show Westworld due to all the PX4 screentime?
Matt Hemple Due to the covid 19 I have drove 12hrs to shoot 2 matches the past two weekends. With equals out to about 150 seconds of shooting. Should I seek help from a counselor.
Chris Potts Questions for Robert. Are Dillons like CZ’s in the sense that you have buy another one whenever you break a spring?
Sebastian Muñoz Where can I find 17 ounce CZ basepads?
Robert C. Moreno Could you share your load data regarding Sport Pistol? I’m shooting 9mm 125 gallant bullets. Also, how do you go about finding accurate loads for your pistol, OAL, latter testing? Thanks for any insight!
Brett Beddow Any suggestions for removing squibs from a 16” PCC 9mm barrel ? I’ve channeling my inner squibnandez
David Blanton What if production had the option for major and 8 rounds- same rule otherwise. Would that provide character to the division or just be changing stuff to change stuff at this point
Evan Ruesdale I have been away from small arms for over two years, and will continue to be for another year. What can I do to maintain proficiency?
Nate Osborne What year (when not if) will a 9mm 2011 or 1911 be production legal? And how will manufacturer donations impact this timeline?
Austin Rist Tom, is it an unwritten rule to not walk through peoples yards if possible when delivering packages?
Chris Potts Also for Robert. I ordered 3k galant 147’s. What length do you like to load them? Any suggestions for loading them for a Pistol Caliber “Pistol” with a suppressor.
Tony Carter What are the Pros / Cons of 124 grain vs 147 grain match Ammo? Felt recoil, muzzle flip, accuracy and energy on poppers?
Lex Konishi Brisket, pulled pork or Ribs?

Some of the guys shot a match yesterday while one protested, then went  out and practiced on his own. Find out who tonight on the show as we  discuss the week in guns and answer your super wonderful questions.

 

Rob Brom I  think I should shoot groups to get used to shooting the gun correctly  after a lag in practice.  Is this something your team of....guys...would  recommend? Thanks

Max Bloemendaal If  the only match you end up shooting this season is IDPA, with a  different gun than you shoot USPSA with, how many tacos would you eat?

Drew Beckman All  the recent podcast love for the 92 sent me down a Beretta rabbit hole.  We’ve heard Tom defend the APX - let’s hear some hot takes on his  defense of the Pico!

Derk Hopkins After  all this time off, Once the timer beeped what did you forget to do?  I  forgot this was a competition. I did not move with urgency.

Joshua Cook Transitions...any  tips on how to train to stop on target at speed without over "shooting"  your spot on target?  With all transitions at different distances it  seems hard to "muscle memory" transitions for precision.

Chad Strickland If the government gives another stimulus check, do I buy a safe or a MacBook for my wife?

Dave Sohm Rear sight has come loose, i can slide it with my finger. How should i secure it?

Day 376ish of the quarantine. Tom is still brown santa. Robert has resorted to setting up backyard field courses. Kenny has switched to production. Steve has gone full joe exotic and is now looking for drugs and a tiger.
But some things stay the same. They’re going to record another show. And with the help of you cool cats and sardine soaked kittens, they’ll answer all the questions you may have! Especially the ones about the guns and matches they aren’t shooting.
 
Robert C. Moreno What are your thoughts on the Trijicon SRO? Is it worth the extra cost over a Delta Point Pro? I'm thinking of throwing it on a X-5 Legion and shooting Carry Optics.
Douglas Dalske How often do ipsc targets show up at your local matches back when we all use to be able to shoot matches. I'm Considering ordering a case of them for practice. Since you do see them at majors just never at my local matches. Good idea or just stick to USPSA targets?
Chris Lokey How many days has Koski been in withdrawal from lack of Natty Ice? Has he passed the stages of shivers and breaking isolation in search of that sweet sweet nectar? Only to find that there is none? Does he wonder the streets while sad Hulk music plays in the background?
Olaf Styrbjörn (Just Olaf). The past six months I am the only one who shows up in Production. I am debating putting together a CO slide for my G34 so I have people to compete against. Is this a good idea or am I better off buying a complete other gun?

Due to the Cornoavirus, the editors have taken the week off.



With the Coronavirus in full effect the guys couldn’t shoot a match. So Kenny went camping to scout out some new locations for some plants he’s trying to grow. Not sure what that’s all about but he said Big Clouds would understand..
Join us tonight as we discuss the week not in guns, and the ensuing panic of having to deal with family members. 
A.J. Ellis Anyone wanna trade a fresh Glock 31 round mag for a factory mag for a CZ Shadow 2? As for the show, what are your favorite target stand systems for range day?
Nate Osborne Steve mentioned he got a bidet last week, but did he get a dozen of them to accommodate all of his many bathrooms, or is the whole family just using a single restroom facility now?
Michael Pyne I've heard you mention that the USPSA Associate membership is gone. But I renewed mine about a week ago. The renewal defaulted to the $40/year option. But if you clicked on the "other options" (or something like that) you could select the $25 option. Thanks for doing the show.
Dutch Brogoitti With Nationals bumped do you think A1 will also?
Chris Potts I’m so happy that we are making “big cloud” jokes again.
Sebastian Muñoz Can Robert Wyatt talk about how to setup a backyard range? My backyard is 60'bwide x 30' deep, neighbors on all sides. Thanks
Thomas Everett Hudson Since Defensive ammo is so hard to find right now, and my shipment just came in; How deep of a hole should I drill into my Gallant Bullets to make Hollow Points?
Dustin Taylor Has Steve bought enough Natty Light to survive his quarantine?
Richard Ingram Where to practice if your local range is closed?

The guys got together and shot a match despite the impending corona  virus outbreak. They also shot berettas with optics and comps in  production. Cause apparently USPSA is allowing anything these days. It  was interesting. 

Join us tonight as we discuss the match, and our pending demise from the corona virus. 

 

Richard Clare I would like a response from the CEO of PARA cast on what they are doing in response to this virus please.

Also.  I'm having issues bringing stuff I do in live fried n dry fire practice  into a match. I seem to resort to my same usual speed at a match vs  practice.

Marshall Kear Is  it a blessing or a curse that the virus doesn’t cause zombies? The lack  of required head shots does simplify the toilet paper retrieval

A.J. Ellis What are you all looking forward to most about the impending apocalypse?

Nate Osborne Is  there a compelling reason the be a USPSA member if you don't have plans  to shoot major matches during the year? I care less and less about  having a letter by my name, and am not really being convinced that a  membership is worth it.

Mark Miller I  know you guys talked about it last week, but I wasn't able to ask til  this week. What about the reason for the weight increase in CO being  able to get 2011's into the mix in the future. With all the big  manufacturers building the 9mm with slide mounted optics. All it will  take is, one more rule change for that to happen (single action),  essentially pushing polymer guns out of the mix.

Sebastian Muñoz Given the shortage of toilet paper, are you guys still eating Jack in the Box tacos after matches?

David Bartlett The  symptoms of COVID19 range from a mild cold to death. Should zombie  films feature a similar range of outcomes, starting with many of the  infected merely wanting to lick other people?
PS. Let the scorekeeper touch the approve button on the Practiscore tablet until further notice.

Nate Osborne With the quarantine, are we going to see an influx of GMs who dry fired for 8 hours a day while stuck in their houses?

Kenny shot a Beretta and now has the Coronavirus. Robert meanwhile spent the week trying to figure out how to bolt an extra three pounds on his shadow since USPSA created the new division “L10 without a Magwell”
Join us tonight as we discuss how much we love when governing bodies Frak up the divisions with arbitrary rule changes because they’re too lazy to enforce the existing ones.
 
Rob Chavous When did USPSA remove the $25 associate member option? Stealth dues increase?
Brady Kraft I have purchased a “wanna be a gunfighter starter kit”. Glock 34, comp tac holster and a shit ton of mags.
1) can you expand on the belt options for my starter kit. Inner and outer belt setups etc. This is foreign to a rifle guy. Even though I have a budget gun, not necessarily looking for budget belt.
2) I added the dawson sight upgrade to my starter kit per y’alls recommendation. I quit being a wuss and installed them myself. Can you walk me through sight in techniques you use to get them aligned properly.
3) Focusing a lot on grip. Right handed shooter. When I look at grip techniques, most of what I see has the left hand palm making contact with pistol. I am am struggling to get this right. My palm overlaps my right hand. I am thinking about this correctly? What am I missing?
Jared Spearman What features/criteria make a shot timer a good one? What timers meet these criteria?
Kenny Platt What do you think the effect would have been of USPSA eliminating the weight limits all together in CO/Prod vs enacting such a high one? My read on it, to get you guys started, is that had they completely erased the weight limits all together, people would have likely not felt the need to change their guns much at all, but now that there’s a golden number that you can achieve, many people (myself not included) feel like there’s a race to 58.5oz going on.
K.C. Hutchinson Is it better to take your Charlie and deltas and move on or take that third shot to try and get a second alpha?

Derk Hopkins For USPSA/IDPA where do you site in you pistols? For defense?
Thomas Everett Hudson Red Dots, large or small for competition? Advantages/disadvantages of each? I’d love to hear your opinions. P.S. Love the show. I look forward to it each week. It really is like sitting in with a good group of friends and listening to them talk $hit. Keep up the good work.
Matthew Engman I’ve trained a handful of times in the last year... what should I work on first?
Max Bloemendaal Steve, how much has the 5th Generation of Glock enhanced "Perfection"? Solid update, or minor upgrade?
Jacob Franklin Did we get another new IDPA rule book this year?!?
Gabriel Johnson When you are reloading, where should the gun be? Chest height a foot away? Shoulder height foot and a half away? Where should the gun be pointing (if facing downrange)? I dropped 5 mags on 3 of the 4 stages yesterday, you do the math. Still came in fourth though.
A.J. Ellis I've always just used the factory sights on my handguns and it looks like I may need to zero one or two of them. How does one go about adjusting factory fixed sights for windage for best results? Or do I really need to just get adjustable sights if I want to mess with them?

Steve, Robert, and Kenny shot a match while Tommy changed his press over to 9mm and threw his single stack away.

 Join us tonight as we talk about politics, cheap alcohol, and also some  spicy shooting related gossip. And we answer your questions. 

 

K.C. Hutchinson What parts do you recommend to have on hand for single stack

Walter Phelps Who would you go to if you needed a holster made for a slightly obscure pistol?

Steve Jaworski What  would you recommend to engage targets faster when rolling into a new  position?  On video, I’m getting where I need to be with the gun up just  fine.  After that, refining the sight picture and pulling the trigger  is painfully slow.  What’s the deal?

Andrew Fisher Have any of you guys had tendonitis and how did you remain competitive?

Mark Brandau What is the last training breakthrough you feel you've had, and when was it?

Brian Prusse What  drills can help with recoil management? I shot a match this weekend and  worked on nothing but speed and had a lot more penalties because of it.  I don’t want to slow down to get me hits I want to control the recoil  better.
Has anyone on the podcast considered doing short night training classes like Adam Riser does for 3 gun?

Derk Hopkins If  a pistol you have been wanting is going to be available soon. Would you  purchase as soon as it becomes available or would you wait to touch and  feel it and listen to the reviews?

Justice-Cynthia Coker What detergents or chemicals do you use when cleaning guns and brass in an ultrasonic cleaner?

Peter Wiktorski Since Virginia keeps pushing for the big igloo to pop off, what preferred camo?  Kryptek or Hawaiian shirt and shorts?

Jacob Franklin Next gun purchase? What will it be?

Klay Grover How about you four shoot a match in production with hi-points.

Kevin Izatt Value powders? Been using tightgroup. Worth looking at something else?

We went out and shot a match then recorded a show early because Kenny wanted to watch the Super Foosball game:


Levi: New to the podcast and loving it! Thanks guys! Question: I've just started shooting competitions and would like your advice to a new shooter for his first season: realistic expectations and where to concentrate to improve the fastest (I'm shooting limited)? Sidenote: I already had the realization after a couple episodes of the paracast that my first ever match I was squaded with THE Mr. Tom Nelson. I could not scroll back through episodes fast enough to hear his match breakdown and "colorful" description of me and the other first time shooters that day. Let's just say, I was not disappointed. :-)


David "The Humble Marksman" Blanton: Question for the show if I don’t see the post go out in time - what makes a level 2 match special (within reason)? What is the minimum expectation and what would take it to the next level from a shooters experience?


Daniel Lutz Have you played with the difference between 124 and 147gr ammo in production. What pros and cons did you decide on. I have been loading 147gr heads for 2 years now and keep wondering if I want to try 124gr. I know there will not be a world of difference but seeking opinions.
Mark Miller Going to put on a 8-9 stage pro am match later this year, any thoughts on pro am, do you like shooting it, any suggestions. We are using 15/mag. Keep up the good work
Jeremy Curnutte Not sure if it’s too late for a show question, but just bought a 1050 with a mark 7 off armslist. Any must haves that I need to get?
Max Bloemendaal What stage-styles, equipment and rules would you combine to make a shooting Superbowl? With the result being the best overall shooter in the world?
John B. Holbrook Now for a legitimate question. Since we’re in the off-season, I think it’s been a while since each of you has talked about your EDC, to include your CCW choices/options.

Some of the guys shot a match. It wasn't Robert.
 
Kepler Kramer Anyone tried the hundred round .223 case gauge? https://www.toothandnailarmory.com/product/TN056.html
(I know Tom and Steve are too cheap to buy one, but maybe Robert picked one up?)
Steve Jaworski Let’s say you were thinking of retiring to Utah from back East. What part of the habitable zone would you recommend for a combination of competition shooting, quality of life, cost, etc?
Chris Potts I heard Tommy talking about working about with a kettle bell. I was thinking about giving this a try. Are there any thing that I should watch out for so that I don’t end up with “birthing” hips?
Derk Hopkins Any movies I should watch since I can not dry fire?
Peter Wiktorski When are you going to go out and buy a Sig P229 in 357SIG?
Scott Pigg Ok. how about another USPSA divisions chat?
Drop lim10, production, and carry optics.
Start a super stock division. An unmodified marked parts gun. (obviously this would have to involve manufacturers) Steel and polymer versions optional. Winners will have their guns checked for tampering. Giving folks back the just buy it and shoot it confidence. 10 rounds 9mm only.
Start a MODIFIED division. this division is pretty much any gun from the stock division but you can modify it to current production rules. 15 rounds. 4lb triggers and tested before match and winners checked again.
Third new division is MOD OPTICS. same as modified but with optics.
The idea is modeled after car racing divisions. worked well to get companies interested in making faster better and safer cars. Its only a recent idea so don't think I am married to it. Please feel free to call me an idiot.
Good to hear the UPS man still lives. and robert sorry for your loss brother.

It’s below freezing in Utah. Robert is probably dead. But we soldiered  on and are answering all the hottest questions you have this week!

 

Maximus Hypicus I'm  moving to Utah (Provo area) from Denver. Where are the USPSA, IDPA,  STEEL, (Bowiling Pin, it's a long shot) Matches,  in the area? Thanks.

 

Jeff Lambert Currently  healing from a knee replacement and I find that I am trying to shoot  faster to make up for my physical disability. This is leading to a lot  of alpha then Charlie’s mikes or delta’s.  What are some good drills for  shooting cadence and shooting on the move.

Chris Lokey Anyone  have experience with The SCAR? Any regrets purchasing it? Any reloading  experience? Got a chance to get a good price on one. Ammo is a bitch  price wise.
And what are each on of y'alls Christmas wishes this year? And what are you hopeful for in the New Year.

Sebastian Muñoz It's  Single Stack Winter!!!  I mean nose-dive winter.  How do I eliminate  nose-dives?  Please don't tell me about polishing my feed ramp.

Richard Clare Best press for running multiple calibers. (Owning a separate 750 press for each caliber not an option)

Douglas Dalske Anyone going to get that new DAA primer tube filler?

Chris Potts Did  the new flare did fix Steve issue with bullets seating crooked?  I was  betting on a case flaring issue but I missed it if he gave an update.

Questions From The Show:
 
Gabriel Johnson Hey, what's the best way to get in the habit of using weak hand more in gripping. I tend to overpower the strong hand, any magic sauce to help or just suck less?
 
Chad Strickland Tom, talk me through the differences between wet tumbling and dry tumbling your brass. I have a wet tumbler in the Amazon cart but need to know if it is worth it.
 
Calvin Leatherwood Going to start a training log both for live and dry fire. What things would you log? Times for drills and hits on target? Par times and drills used in dry fire? Thanks!

Tom went out to shoot a match win his #singlestackwinter and the club single stack hero changed divisions to shoot his 1911 in “production”.
 
Calvin Leatherwood: What did you think of the DQ video I sent?
 
Nick Coronel Does attendance affect what division you shoot? There were only three guys in production at my local match today, all of us C class, and this seems to be a trend. For some reason it feels less interesting than when there’s a higher level shooter to chase. I have an MOS glock and don’t want to shoot limited or open, so CO would be the obvious choice.
 
Mark Miller What are your thoughts on a level two match not putting out a match book, does it affect how you prepare for a major match. No stages diagrams, descriptions, just a schedule.
 
Derk Hopkins How many times Have you all been DQ'd?

Jared Michael Major vs minor for general matches single stack. Looking at recent area 1 matches, minor did very well.

Tony Carter What is considered more important in the game Speed or Accuracy?
