Looks for Range (1/11)

Only concern for me would be getting enough powder in it with the large bullet (147 sized) without the running into pressure.

Ria 2011 in .40 want to turn into open gun suggestions?

Don't worry about the capacity. Not too many stages that are shootable without a mag change or a place to do the change. -
Wet tumbling, and using magnet on case feeder...

Look at southern shine. They sell stainless chips. I hear they do a great job also and don't get stuck at all. Pretty cheap to trial also. -
I mean you could theoretically add a small thumb shelf like bulleye target grips have as that is a grip modification.
-
What happens if you mount the thumb rest to the grip?
-
You can just measure the case capacity to confirm. Just zero scale for empty then add water and re measure for both cases. Most accurate way to confirm they are not significantly different.

I mean the rim/case head diameter is the same and the overall taper is nearly identical. So if you load 9x19 to the published 9x21 oal then you would have the same effective case volume. Case volume of an unloaded piece of brass has no real bearing if overall length is the same on effective case capacity. Example 260 Remington and 6.5 creedmoor when both are loaded to the same oal have approximately the same velocity potential even though the 260 has more case capacity. That is because if you are restricted to the oal of a short action magazine the bullet is stuffed into the case quite a ways. Now if you are running out of a long action mag you can seat at a longer oal and gain enough case capacity to push it ~125 fps faster than 6.5 creedmoor can achieve.

It is a pretty good scope for the money. Have one on my 223 bolt gun
-
Case dimensions are the same. So if loaded to the same OAL then the case volume for powder would be the same.
-
I run a Talos BTR because it is sub $300 and the focus distance is really short. Also it has a good zoom range so it can be a field gun too if you want.

It is under the data for 9x21 which is really just a longer case. http://www.vihtavuori.com/en/reloading-data/handgun-reloading/9-x-21.html
-
So if I am reading this right with this powder you can make PF without going over standard 9mm pressure if you can load long enough to meet the 9x21 load data. Is that right?

You can buy replacement batteries for like a buck a piece on amazon. At that price why not change frequently?

USPSA First Time Reloader Dillon 550 vs 650 etc

You could also save some money and just use an rcbs powder cop die. I wet tumble with a lyman cyclone. For pistol I'd just suggest a cheap milligram balance off amazon like the WAOAW brand scales (look up Johnny's Reloading Bench on youtube for some reviews) and get used to zeroing it before you drop the charge every time to prevent drifting zero. -
It is in a dovetail mount and from what I've read the venom is pretty tall. But don't know how to measure height over bore on a reflex type sight. Is it bore centerline to center of lens or is it to where the dot come from.
