Gunfighter Moment – Daryl Holland 
April 9th, 2016
I haven’t given up on you if I have stopped correcting you on something that you continue to get wrong. Some folks take longer than others due to a lack of hand and eye coordination or having a “Training scar”, which is muscle memory built in by doing something incorrectly and repeatedly over a long period of time. We have to move on, so as long as it’s not a safety concern, the person struggling with a bad habit will need to put their own time in and work on it themselves to undo their “Training scar”. Breaking a bad habit is easier said than done. You may have heard that women are good marksmanship students, which is because they begin with zero experience therefore they have zero bad habits. Perform the perfect repetition to develop the perfect muscle memory. It’s that simple!
An example is trying to fix someone’s grip after they have used the wrong grip for several years. Backward thumbs may feel stronger because you have used it for years and you may even experience a decline in performance at first, but just keep working for that perfect grip and one day it will feel right…Which is usually after they start holding tighter with the non-firing hand.
Some shooting skills can be developed without going to the range such as “Dry firing” while working on your grip. Training with an empty gun doesn’t sound sexy, but I believe it is very under rated, especially for beginners…Darwin note; please keep ammo separate when “Dry firing”.
“When the student is ready, the master will appear”.

Leupold Dominates USASOC Sniper Competition
April 8th, 2016
BEAVERTON, Ore. — Leupold & Stevens, Inc., riflescopes have been trusted by the nation’s most elite military snipers for decades for one simple reason: they work. This performance edge was on display at the U.S. Army Special Operations Command International Sniper Competition.
This annual event is considered the premier test for the world’s snipers and their gear. This year’s winners, snipers from the 3rd Special Forces Group trusted their Leupold® Mark 6® 3-18x44mm riflescopes and DeltaPoint Pro™ red dot sights to bring home the title.
“Leupold’s legacy with elite sniper units is a point of pride for all of us here at Leupold,” said Bruce Pettet, president and chief executive officer. “Knowing that lives depend on our products working and surviving the battlefield drives us to constantly improve our products. This commitment to performance carries over to every product that leaves our Oregon factory.”
Twenty-five two-man sniper teams took part in this year’s International Sniper Competition, representing the best precision marksmen from around the world. The U.S. Army teams dominated, taking the top three spots in the five-day, 21-event competition.
For the snipers, it’s a chance to put their skills up against the best, and for Leupold it’s an opportunity to see their riflescopes, spotting scopes and laser rangefinders driven hard. For the more than 650 American employees of Leupold, it’s a testament to their dedication to quality, performance and ruggedness.
