I have shot next to Brian at Nationals and everyone here is right, he is a stand up Guy and always willing to help me when I asked questions. Much can be learned from watching him.
He also is the first to congratulate you when you have taken his thunder.
It is no secret, "good" practice and lots of it are the 'secret',
but that's no secret.
Since my retirement I have spent more time on the 100yd 22 chicken range (I'm lucky, it's in my back 'forty') and I have improved my shooting to the point I win a few matches now and again. I do not shoot as many rounds as Brian, but I probably shoot between 2k, 3k rounds of 22 a year at chickens and 500+ rounds of BPCR. It has made a difference.
I would say I average 1500+ rounds of BPCR a year and another 5k rounds of 22. Besides being fun,,,,it makes ya better.
They say silhouette matches are won at the chicken line and lost at the turkey line. True statement I believe, so get good at both of these and you will see the results.
The silhouette game is not an easy one. You must be more then proficient at 2 types of shooting, (prone and offhand) and both require good techniques and lots of practice.
Having a good spotter is paramount and having a gun/load that will shoot 1moa helps.
So, Shoot straight and get out and practice!
