USPSA Renton Series Match June 2016 - Match Win!! Open Division
What an amazing day to shoot, sun was up, wasn't too hot, great stages and lots of snacks/coffee. It's the series or points match held at the Renton Fish and Game Club. Had a momentary lapse in match mode but did well mostly. Came away with a match win. Thanks to everyone at DownZero for setting up this match!
Finally back shooting after a long break.
[excuses] I found out during the match that I don't do well in cold rainy weather, my hands get all cold and beaten up. Got my thumb cut on something, left middle finger pinched during a reload, slide bite (for the first time) and thumb hit the racker.

Saw this product on a web page somewhere, checked out their videos and was totally amazed. Had to try it out on my shoes. Here's a quick review of the Rust-Oleum's NeverWet product applied to my Inov-8 Mudclaw 333s.

Was a fun day with a fun small squad, we managed to clear a stage backup and restored the match flow, because we're all SUPA FAST! :) I'm moving so slow and sluggish, like an old man. Wait. I am an old man!

Beautiful day for a match, sun was out the whole day. This was the worst match of the year for me, screwed up many stages. I would attribute it to lack of concentration and focus. Mind wasn't in it I guess. You can see the visual screwup at the classifier (last stage)

Guess what, it rained again in the Pacific Northwest. What a surprise. I should get used to it by now. It wasn't as bad as last week's match but still pretty wet. My gun had a few malfunctions because I didn't detail strip and clean it after the Marysville match. Rust has formed in the lockwork and mainspring housing. That'll teach me not to clean my guns properly especially after getting it wet.

Comparing the smoke levels of the Vantage Reloading 124gr 9mm major ammo. FMJ with an exposed lead back vs the JHP bullet.
Both bullets have the exact same load recipe (Silhouette powder, OAL and primers)
Btw the JHPs were also slightly more accurate, looks like I’ll be switching to JHPs for my match ammo.
Visit https://www.vantagereloading.com and Michael will help build you a custom load that works for your gun.
