This was my first level 3 match. I think I shot it decently...not too many screw ups. I was trying to go a little faster than usual and my accuracy suffered a little bit. Anyway, here is an all steel stage with a Polish plate rack and a Texas star. This was my first go at a Polish plate rack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBdPZvtydew

Wow! Awesome Melissa especially with the Texas Star. Being of Polish decent I was wondering what the "Polish" plate rack was, now I know.

Thanks Bill! A regular plate rack only has 6 plates that are all on the top.

GREAT JOB Melissa!!!

How did you like the new gun?

AIRret, I LOVE the new gun. Didn't have a single problem with her yesterday. Now, I've just got to get used to flipping down the safety and letting the mags drop free.

Here's the whole match minus stage 5 (forgot to turn on the camera). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIDm4sCEylo

Dang, don't get in front of Melissa because she hit's what she's shooting at.

Really cool.

Great shooting Melissa. Gun seems to be preforming very well.
How do you like that thumb rest.

ruf45, not sure if it's really helping with recoil, but it does help when we start off with the gun laying on a table. I think I just need to grip the gun tighter.

Thought about getting one just to get the higher off the table

This course is "much" tougher than the ones you shot last year….and those were't easy anyway.

OUTSTANDING!!

Thanks everyone! I can see a lot of improvement from when I first started, but I still see a lot that I need to fix. What is really awesome is to watch some of the master and grand master shooters. They are scarey fast!

AIRret, the matches that I usually shoot are level 1 local club matches. Level 2 matches are state championship matches. This match was a level 3 match which is like a multi-state regional match. The next level is a national match that you have to be invited to shoot.

Thanks everyone! The scores were posted last night. I was 10th out of 18 shooters in Open C class. For my first level 3 match, I am pretty pleased with that.
