Solvability

I use it with no crimp on poly coated - works fine and assures they will chamber.

I have a 34 slide and have been running it for about a year - excellent - I recommend it highly - only issue for me is you cannot use it for production or SSP since it is aftermarket. I have 4 different LW barrels in 9mm and 45 and have had excellent results - the 45 I sent back to extend the chamber to shoot swc - free of charge. LW has excellent customer service - you ever get a bad part they will make it right. Jim

I do not believe that amount of variation matters - seems pretty normal to me. Titegroup and W231 do meter better if that matters.

Reshoot?

I like 4.9g S1k with the 200gr Magnus - you will want to chrony them but I believe they were gtg in my 1911.

It is an internal mod and I believe fully compliant. I have them in 3 Glocks and have never had a problem with doubling - my guess is that would be a cruciform issue not a stop issue.

I doubt the crud is the cause of light strikes if the primers were seated flush. I hope it was. Were these primers of a different type than the ones that worked. Federals are usually the most reliable for a revo with a lightened main spring.

I recently sent my 550b to Dillon for a rebuild - it was worn everywhere - they rebuilt around a couple of simple parts and basically sent a new machine for 48.00 - I could not be happier. The 550 I bought used years ago from a guy that loaded for a UZI and I load for competition - who knows how many rounds it made.

I do not have a Gen 4 - yet. A friend does and finds full reliability with factory full power ammo, but not with PF <130. If you change the guide rod to a metal or non captured guide rod you will shoot ESP - not that there is anything wrong with that - it is a very competitive division. The Gen 4 bobbles are being fixed quickly if not already. My accuracy and speed increased when I went ahead and had a grip reduction on my G34 and just manned up to shoot ESP with the hot shots. Best of luck and good shooting.

I am not aware of a WST load for 147 & 9mm. The current hot ticket is Solo 1000 - 3.3 to 3.5g with lead 147. Do you have a WST load from a reliable source? I use WST for 45 and like it.

Hmmm now there is a thought. I already have that covered.

Thanks - L10 sounds like the way.

I have been shooting a few matches with my G17 in production and having fun - I would like to try shooting my G21 in major - the stock capacity is 13+1 - I hear there are mag extensions and oversize mags but I do not want to buy the wrong thing and/or something that will not work reliably. So - open ended question - what division to maximize the G21 that I have now and what accessories do I want to do it with - keeping the gun itself as stock as possible? Thanks for the tolerance of a noob.

Due to weather Scott and I are not going to try CRSSA for tomorrow - if weather permits we may try Steel City IDPA - I still want to get over and shoot with you guys at CRSSA, but am too big a wus to do it in weather like this. Jim

A couple of us are planning to come over from Huntsville. I know Mike P, Scott R and Jim C are actively planning to drive over. Looks like a lot of fun. Mike speaks realy highly of the group, despite that we still plan to come over.

Who makes Brian's scale?
