  1. Thanks DWFAN. Couple of hours after my post UPS delivered my PD samples. I'll load tonight and test Thur/Fri. I rcvd. 124 PD's in RN and JHP and 147's in RNJHP and JTC's(truncated cone).
  2. Among other disciplines I shoot IDPA locally (Polk County, FL)-SSP and ESP Div; Sharpshooter rating. Was using MP .45 FS,(SSP/CDP), (Love it!), just bought a MP 9mm Pro, all stock parts-aprx 500 rounds. (Love it too.) Load on a 550B, only powder on hand is TG. Don't plan on pursuing greatness, just shooting for fun and to remain responsible. Only 9mm I could find were 124 RN and FP Rainiers. I have 124 and 147, FP and HP samples from Prec. Delta ordered,(6 weeks out). Have been reading extensively on several forums and it seems heavier (147) bullets are at least equal in use with 124/125's. (135's seem to be an emerging entity). My question is............given the fact that orders are 6 to 8 weeks out I feel a need, (i.e. I want to but can wait), to decide what weight bullet to buy in quantity. (5-10m ea.) I don't want to spend XTP money so I would value input; if you were buying today for your MP 9mm Pro, and, wanted to use Tight Group, -would you buy 124's; 135's; or 147's, what style, and from whom. For this pistol so far, best accuracy, center to center, at 25 yds rested: 147g Horn XTP 1.4 x 1.18 inch-8 rounds 3.4 TG CCI 500 SPP R-P Brass .380 crimp 1.15 OAL 124g Rainier FP 2.5 x.2.05 inch 10 rounds 4.1 TG(tried 4.2,4.2-worse) 1.08 OAL(tried 1.13,1.15-worse) Fed Brass 124g Rainier RN 3.2 x 4.8 in 10 rounds 4.1 TG(tried 4.2,4.3-worse) 1.15 OAL (also 1.13 OAL-4x5 inch) Fed Brass Worst accuracy; CCI 147 FMJ factory load-5 rounds-8 inches (These two are the only 147 I have.) Thanks is advance.
  3. Just ordered a Burris Fast Fire - 4 MOA -for my L Baer from Optics Planet. Got the FF and Picat. mount for $176, plus ordered the Bomar/Novak mount for $29; and UPS ground is free. I plan to use it for club shoots in bowling piin, modified bullseye etc. With the Picat. rail I can also put it on my Ruger MII 22/45 for cheap practice, which I need lots of. I've tried new prescription glasses, and my eyes just don't get it done like they used to. From everything I can tell all three items are in stock - will post a user review after I play with it a bit. http://www.opticsplanet.net/burris-fastfir...fire-sight.html
