  1. That's a good idea. I separate all of my brass by headstamp but a few can easily get through and into the mix. Thank you! I'll give that a try and see what happens. Thanks for the suggestion!
  2. Hello, I've been using the Mr. Bullet Feeder Powder Funnel for 9mm on my 550 for a while now (30k rds) and noticed today there were little vertical lines etched into the side (Pictures below, click links for larger pictures).They seem to go into the powder funnel and not out. There are also a few lines going horizontal but I can't tell if those were there from the start or not. These vertical lines also get etched into the brass after it gets pulled down from the powder funnel. I haven't had any issues so far with any rounds but it does seem odd and I'm contemplating ordering a new one or reaching out to see if they've seen this before. I also have the same powder funnel in .40 and that one does not have any vertical lines although it has only been used for a few thousand rounds. Has anyone seen this? Any insight or help would be appreciated. I'm stopping its use for the time being. https://ibb.co/XCGRjpC https://ibb.co/gMBNQC4 https://ibb.co/JyJQFP7 https://ibb.co/Jp5PH0P Thanks!

    New CZC Gun

    Probably a ring shape but I highly doubt it's cut and functions like a factory ring hammer. I would expect this thing to have all the bells and whistles straight out of the box
  4. No, it's all preference. Over time I've changed how I grip my gun so grip panels have changed as well. I think you should ensure the grips allow for correct function first and then go with comfort. By function I mean do they allow your trigger finger to contact the trigger in the exact spot you want with out having to shift your hand around a lot? Off the draw, does your hand position consistently and again contact the trigger exactly like you want? Can you hit the mag release, slide release and safeties easily? I recently changed my trigger finger placement so the trigger is in the joint area and not the pad. To accommodate this I needed a thinner grip on the right side. If you like the current grips but want more texture, try adding jb weld and silicon carbide.
  5. Very nice! How do you like them? It appear that your thumb. Rests much higher than the stock cz extended
  6. He had a previous post on it and bought it from here: http://www.luckydelta.com/shop/CZ-Teile-Tuning/Sicherungen-Safety/CZ75-SP-01-SHADOW-ORANGE-WIDE-SAFETY-SET-RECHTSHAND.html
  7. awesome! Thanks for those pictures
  8. Hello, I've been messing around with my grip and have been thinking of moving away from my thin Rami safeties I currently have on my accushadows. The extended safeties that come with the gun however, are very low (as in where my thumb rests) and force my left hand grip placement to be lower than I'd like. Does anyone have a comparison of the Shadow 1 extended safeties vs the shadow 2 extended safeties and some feedback on the height and feel between the two? A recent post showed that the new shadow orange safeties are like the shadow 2 but fit a cz75 frame. The feel of the current new style sp01 safeties isn't bad and puts my thumb higher, but the profile is just a big hump and not a ledge. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks
  9. Great I'll have to go through my reject pile and pull out some of the xtreme and give it a try. Haven't really seen much stepped brass lately except the few FM and IMT.
  10. The FM I've been checked are still stepped but the x-tremes don't seem to be. I'll make a separate batch and see what happens. Thanks for the input!
  11. I sort though all of my brass and have been chucking the xtreme and perfecta brass as I recall there being some issue with it. I've been searching the net for the article where people had issues with it but can't seem to find it. Anyone have any issues with reloading this brass? I use a dillon 550 right now. Thanks for the help!
  12. Bought a ton of Prima SV when Prima V was hard to come by. Actually prefer it since I can use it in 9mm and .40. Here is my 9mm load data with Prima SV: Dillon 550 Blue Bullet 147FP OAL 1.14" 3.2gr (looked to be throwing +/- .06) Average of 20 shots out of a CZ Accushadow Ave: 905 SD: 7.3 PF: 133.035 Dillon 550 Blue Bullet 147FP OAL 1.14" 3.06gr (looked to be throwing +/- .06) Average of 20 shots out of a CZ Accushadow Ave: 886.7 SD: 5.7 PF: 130.34
  13. Thanks Stuart! I'll try the czc 13lb spring and swe how it goes.
  14. Has anyone had issues with light strikes? I had quite a few using CCI primers and a 11.5lb main spring on my accushadow 1. This was with the CZC kit and not the CGW. I swapped everything back for reliability but have some down time between my next big match and want to mess around with it again. Any differences between the CZC and CGW kits? Options would be federal primers or maybe a 13lb mainspring if I really wanted the reach kit.
  15. I shoot 147's JHP's for a match load but load them to like 139 pf. Slide cycles a bit faster, seem to knock down steel pretty well, and I am never ever worried about making PF at a match.
