  1. There have been a few instances of that happening, but the manufacturer has been great about fixing them promptly for everyone who has experienced the problem.

    Like any other piece of equipment, it helps to treat the product as gently as possible. Try not to bend the kydex any further than necessary to load the moonclips, and move the unit off to the side before flopping prone, etc.

    My Son operates a metal fabrication business near Las Vegas and we are working on an all-metal

    version similar to the one in question. Of course, it will be slightly heavier but very durable.

    I will be putting it through the paces at Richmond HotShots Range in Northern California when completed.

    We have no plans to market it .... I just want a reliable platform for Revolver competition.

  2. I use 700X for 9mm. 4.9gr pushes a jacketed, 115 gr bullet at 1150+ out of a G17- with some pressure signs. I love the recoil impulse, short and sharp.

    If you decide that you just can't find a load- I'd be interested in buying the 5# from you- I'm living in Sin City too.

    I'm definitely going to give it a try, since the powder was dirt cheap when I bought

    it several years ago. Just hope it is still safe for reloading purposes (sealed container).

  3. Bought one just like it when I first started reloading. After an hour of head scratching frustration, it now sits in my cabinet under the reloading bench with the rest of shortcut shi* I can't use. Bought an inexpensive Hornady scale for $30 that holds zero and is accurate to within 1/10th of a grain, and haven't looked back.

    ETA: Putting my money where my mouth is:

    They want $25 delivered, I'll sell you mine that was used for one reloading session for half that amount delivered to your front door. :P

    Finally, someone who actually has experience with this (price range) scale.

    I'll just go ahead and buy a good one and be done with it.

    Thanks for your honest opinion ...

  4. The resolution for grains is in 0.2 increments. Buy a dillon or rcbs or lee or CED or a scale with 0.1 grain resolution. Also a scale which holds its zero is a good idea.

    Are you stating THIS Scale will not hold it's zero ?

    I know the other scales you listed are recommended, but I rarely reload anymore

    and won't be competing in anymore National Events as the effects of old age have

    caught up with me, so I just wanted something other than the Beam Scale I have

    used in the past and didn't want to spend a lot of money.

    I really wanted to know if anyone has ACTUALLY had good or bad experiences with THIS particular scale.

    Thanks for your reply ...

  5. I listed it in the USPSA Classifieds so as to give a fellow shooter a chance at it prior to a general public offering ... I paid plenty for it when I purchased it, and the Moonclips/Holders are easily another $400.00 retail, so the pistol is actually selling for around $1300.00 ...

    Please forgive me for even posting this in the Revolver Section ... It should now be in the Classifieds ...

    I was just curious to know if anyone had heard of a new batch of these revolvers being offered by S. & W. and my question has been answered ... Thanks to all who repllied

  6. I have a Like New 627 8-shot .38 Super with less than 200 rounds through it advertised on the USPSA Classifieds at $1700.00 including Case, Accessories, Paperwork, (30) New Hearthco Moonclips, & (10) Shoot-a-Moon Holders ...

    Some guy just emailed me and said he can buy them all day for $950.00 ...

    Anyone out there have a line on these at that price ? ... I want to buy a truck load ...

  7. Do a search for speed-e-rack

    I think you must use Hearthco clips in the speed-e-rack. My 38 special will only work with Hearthco. Ranch and TK fit very loose and can fall out.

    Thanks a lot ... I found their website ... The Speed-e-Rack is designed well and would serve my purpose if I only had one gun ... However, it appears I have to buy specific models for 627 & 625 ..... and ..... there is no mention of a model to fit the 610 in .40 ....... Soooooooo, I will either try to make my own or buy the North Mountain 4-row ...

  8. Jerry is now using one of Elliot Eysens' moonclip holders.

    I would be very interested in seeing this setup before I decide what to buy.

    I need a multi-clip holder that will work well with my 627 .38 Super, 610 .40, and 625 .45

    Anyone have a picture and details or a website location where I can view this critter ?

  9. Just bought a new 610 in 6.5" and will need a Holster for ICORE & USPSA ... I currently have a Blade-Tech for my 627 8-Shot .38 Super, but it would need to be modified to fit the longer barrel ... Should I just go ahead and do that or buy another Holster ... ?

    Also ordered 30 RIMZ Moonclips from Brownell's, since several of you recommended them ... How about a Moonclip Holder for the 610 ... ? Should I go with a North Mountain 4-5 Row or something else ... ?

  10. Did not see many replys on your holster choice. I shoot USPSA and ICORE with a 6" 25-2 drawn from a Blade Tech DOH. I like it a lot and do not feel like I give up much to the race holsters.

    :rolleyes:

    While we're on the subject of Blade-Tech Holsters, where is the best place (price) to buy the DOH Tech-Lok for my 627 5" ... ?

    Read THIS and then think seriously about supporting Kenney That is where I bought mine

    I took your advice and emailed Kenny at Speed Shooters Specialties ... He hooked me up with the perfect Blade-Tech Holster and Miculek spring kit for my 627 Super ... PLEASE NOTE: I first called Blade-Tech to order the Holster and was told that I must wait 4-6 weeks for them to custom build it ... Kenny had them IN STOCK and NO ONE else did ... Fantastic Service from a Great Guy ... !!!!

    Please read the reply below .... I am still new at this and making plenty of mistakes .....

    That's what I was hoping to hear ... I figured the Rescomp Holster may be more than I needed ... Thanks for the reply.
