Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. After I got about 3-400 rounds thru it issues pretty much disappeared, it has been running 100% for about the last 1k. I am going to change over to the Taccom bolt with the AR style extractor, and their 3 stage buffer, I think it will be better long term, and the are a local company (MN) so xtra bonus.

  2. +1 get the loader for colt mags you will be glad Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
  3. I built my AR9 on an Anderson lower with a KAK industries Mag block for Colt mags, Nothing fancy, Spinta Bolt, Mil spec trigger with JP springs, for a hair under $700. I like to tinker, so it was fun for me to build my own. It has mostly run pretty well, some occasional FTF and the odd FTE which I narrowed down to ASC mags and the Spinta Bolt when new, once I got about 500 rounds thru it the FTFs disappeared. Still get the odd FTE, I blame the bolt. I put a Taccom magwell, Taccom ULW Buffer, and Hogue furniture over the last year, Plus a Metal form Mag with the TTI +10 extension. I didn't shoot last season (job issues) but I'm planning to shoot as much as I can this year. Planning to upgrade the BCG and buffer system to the Taccom Extreme BCG, and the 3 stage buffer. Knowing what I know now I would have went that direction from the start, and possibly would have gone with a dedicated 9mm lower for colt mags QC10 or similar.
  4. I run the ghost mag pouches bullets out just like my pistol, seems to work with 32 round colt style mags.
  5. Your classification is expressed as a percentage of the High hit factor for your division, it has nothing to do with major or minor, which is something you declare for each match (and will have to prove at chrono). So the answer to your question is yes.
  6. Taylor freelance makes a +10 for colt mags. I have one on a metalform 32 rounder er now 42 rounder. I think it will also fit ASC mags as well but haven't tested it.
  7. 1st time build. Anderson upper and lower, 16" chrome moly barrel, Mil spec buffer and furniture. Spinta bolt, Kak industries colt style mag block.
  8. +1 this...Had it happen in a Match last weekend
  9. Shot it in a match on Sunday, for the most part it ran good, with the exception of some pilot error, I'm riding up on the thumb safety occasionally activating it inadvertently. It's only mildly annoying and totally fixable with some dry fire, making sure my index with my thumb ON TOP of the safety happens every time. Other than that she is a straight shooter, more accurate than I am. I do miss that FO front sight..(Come on Ben Stoeger Pro Shop!!)
  10. I like to run about 135 pf in my CZs seems the best balance of recoil and cycle time. The Stock III feels about the same with those loads.
  11. Sounds like I'll be in the ball park with 4.3 gr ETR7 under a 124 gr bayou at 1.090 then, the gun runs pretty good at that OAL.
  12. Ran 100 rnds of the 1.090 stuff dropped .1 grains last night. The gun ran pretty well at that OAL, Zero Malfunctions, and I couldn't get through a mag of the longer stuff, knocked the sharp edge off the breach face so no double feeds either. So pending a little chrono testing I think I have my load! Going to try it out in a match on Sunday! Time for some dry fire practice!
  13. the TCN 124s have the same or similar profile to the TCN 147, I would start to get nervous loading a 147 so short little case volume, especially with ETR7 which is a fairly bulky powder by weight. Hoping my 124s loaded to 1.090 from 1.115 at the same charge weight won't be significantly higher pf. While I don't mind load development it just takes time and I have a major coming up April 30!
  14. Shooting CZs for years, I'm on top of the periodic TRS Replacement. I loaded up some shorter loads (1.085-1090) to test live fire, hopefully that will be the ticket for the gun to run...everything else seems to be working ok! Do the Tanfos have similar issues with the slide stop...in my reading I haven't found any reports of that...only that the slide stop is more costly.
  15. I guess this girl likes em short! Dummied up some of the Bayou 124 TCN's at about 1.090 and they chamber fine! Did several rounds that way, and they will load as fast as I can work the slide. Now I will have to get some loads made to that OAL and back to the range, It would be fun to try it out at a match this weekend! Should I be concerned about dry firing?? I don't do a ton.
