Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. I have a fix for you, louu. Make up six moonclips or speedloaders with dummy rounds. Put on all your shooting gear and head to your dry firing area. Draw and shoot as fast as you can, but only accept "A" hits. You are an A class shooter, so you know how to call your shots. Go through all six moonclips reloading at speed. However, if you shoot a shot that is NOT an alpha stop. Holster, put your dummy rounds back on your belt. Now draw, transfer to your weak hand, shoot, reload using your other hand and stop when you call a bad shot. If you make it through all 36 or 48 trigger pulls with good alpha hits switch hands and repeat as desired.
  2. I received the Ranch moonclips and they work fine. They are holding samples of all my brass regardless of extractor groove dimensions. Problem solved.
  3. Now they will make a rule that you have to have a 26 inch barrel and a stepped rib.
  4. Yes sir I have. Any of brass with an extractor groove diameter equal to or less than 0.333" would not stay in the moonclip. The challenge is that 76/200 are too small, but the remaining 134 fit great with my moonclips. I remember the days when I shot my 625 with Ranch Products clips and range pick up brass and never gave this stuff a second thought. Ignorance was kind of nice.
  5. I forgot that I have some TK clips that are 0.050" thick. They hold the offending brass. Some of it fits tighter that others, but loaded rounds stay in the clip after a gentle shake. Unfortunately, the way my cylinder is cut I cannot close the cylinder with the thick moonclips.
  6. I wonder if its time for one of those 3D printers. Have you tried one yet for stuff like this?
  7. Starline says their smallest is 0.333, so their standards are a little tighter. Unfortunately, that is a little too small.
  8. I called Starline a few moments ago. They can't help me. TK is next. Thanks for the replies.
  9. Let me start by saying that I think highly of Starline products. I use them in 38 special. I am finally getting around to finishing my setup for a GP-100 that I had rebored to 40S&W. Harold Nicholson did a great job on that gun. The balance is great and it reloads like my old 625. The problem that I have is that the extractor groove dimension on my Starline brass is not consistent. I set my calipers to 0.333" and anything that fits does not clip in my TK moon clips. The moon clips are spot on. Out of 200 rounds of Starline 40 S&W brass I had 76 that were too loose for my moon clips. I understand SAAMI specs and manufacturing tolerances allow the differences. It just doesn't help with my moon clips. Have any of you fine folks worked with a brass manufacturer to order brass with a specific extractor groove dimension? Thanks, Javier
  10. My 12 gauge 1 oz loads at 1150 fps run my M2 and Vinci. They are also soft on my O/U. I think 1150 fps is the best compromise for me.
  11. I will take two when they make it for a snubby.
  12. Maybe make it wider at the top to make it easier to hit while rotating the muzzle down.
  13. Another lefty here. Talk to Harold Nicholson about the release that he made for me. I just have to sweep my finger across the release. It is a work of art.
  14. Excellent news. I'm a fan of the old cocobolo wood insert grips. thanks
