Gman57 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Adam knocked it out of the park with my custom open gun. Built it in 9mm major and when I was working up the loads today on the chrono this gun was punching one ragged hole in the sighting target. Just a couple of phone pics for now.

BeerBaron Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Nice! I still (to my taste) find the 'overbite' effect of the dust cover being longer than the slide a bit awkward looking. My eye just gets drawn to it (even though they do a great job blending the comp to it). I think either run the dust cover all the way to end of the comp or cut it off level with slide. I will give them points for trying something a bit different though. I have to say their work overall looks really nice.

nbot Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Did you opt for a standard racker or a SVI Racker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcs Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Awesome looking gun. Did Adam recommend a load? What load are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAM Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Amazing looking gun! I like the long dust cover don't see to many open gun set up like that. When you get tired of it let me know I maybe interested in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWLAZS Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Nice gun. I was looking at that at the shop when it came in from coating. Try Hs6 8.2 grains with a 124 jhp at 1.165. It should put you around 169 pf with a super nice dot track. I didn't get to shoot that one or I could tell you for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWLAZS Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 1.165 Adam likes the Ramshot. I have used that in the past but you lose velocity hs the temp goes up. Living in vt and then nationals in Vegas was a pain. I have shot that load in his guns and it's super nice. I just didn't get to shoot yours. That gray on gray looks even better in person.

grantwoodok Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Very nice! Great choice in a builder. I'm loving mine. I hear you about the gun being better than you... I feel the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
