Dogged

Check the center of some of the primers shot out of the gun to see if the they have been blackened and pierced by a damaged firing pin.

One broken trigger stud in a 610 repaired at no cost. Excessive cylinder gap on 627 repaired (by overclocking the barrel) at no charge. Really guys, the readers of this forum probably put more rounds through our revolvers than the rest of the nation combined. If there is going to be a problem It will end up being discussed (with disgust) here. That's no excuse for declining workmanship but it's probably why it matters to us so much and not so much to everybody else.

I'm very happy with the Speed-E-Rack but I've never tried the others. Try 'em all and do what works for you

Way to go Greg!

Those guys put on a first class match, I'd be interested.

Rule 8.1.4 of the 2014 USPSA rule book states that unless complying with a division requirement (see appendix D), a competitor must not be restricted on the number of rounds to be loaded or reloaded in a handgun. Fill 'er up

OK, I sent my payment in more than a month ago and have not yet been approved to shoot. Has everyone else got email confirmation already. Is Bubber really going to drink all my beer uncontested??

Chris bringing The National Beer of Texas???? Well that did it, my application and payment are sent!

I Put a 6" model 27 barrel on a 4" 627 to supply some leverage for magnaporting that a longer barrel would accomplish. I attached a file and hope it comes out. Well the attachment doesn't show up you can see it at www.durochervetclinic.com/images/627.jpg

On stage one - are those spectators within the 180 on the right??? Nice shooting!

Will there be a black x ring?

Substitute proud hammer nose bushing for firing pin bushing.

A firing pin bushing left proud of the breech face could do it. Had one come from the factory like that, once the bushing was fixed, a headspace problem was created.

I cut down some Federal and R-P 38 special cases to 0.90" and loaded 160 grain Lead Round nose GAT bullets over 3.5 grains of Clay Dot with an OAL of 1.330. I ran them over a chronograph yesterday: In my 5" barreled 627 limited gun 8 shots averaged 843.9 feet per second with a standard deviation of 11.61 fps for an average power factor of 135 In my 6" open gun they averaged 835.9 feet per second with a standard deviation of 27.69 fps for an average power factor of 134. I didn't shoot any groups but they all landed on the head of a metric target from ~35 yards when shot from a table top. They also shot much cleaner than the similar 38 special loads I've been using. Any other Midi data out there?
