  1. We had our January Steel Challenge match today and Bill's wife, kids and extended family were there for the start of it.  I'm extremely touched they spread some of his ashes on the range.  This sport meant so much to Bill and this final act is testament to that.  Bill was instrumental in helping me get SCSA underway as Oakland County Sportsmans Club just this past November and we will miss him greatly.   Cool thing is every time we shoot at our club, he will be with us!   

  2. I'm still in a state of shock from the call I got last night from Bill's son Brad.  This is going to leave quite a hole in the shooting community here in Michigan.  Having shot with Bill since the 90's I have met few that were as giving to our sport.  He will be sorely missed. 

  3. Get the Hahn dedicated mag block (adapter).  The dedicated version goes in from the top and is held in place by the bolt release.   I shot a Colt SMG mag fed PCC for many 1000's of rounds a couple of yrs ago with the Hahn and it was flawless.  They are not cheap (around $200) but worth it if you want to stay with the platform.   

  4. I know I'll take some heat for this but building a budget PCC is folly if you intend to use it in competition.  I've seen way too many not deliver the performance and reliability needed for a match.   If the PCC is for causal fun that is another story.   

     

    I subscribe to the "buy once, cry once" approach and as such the barrel, bolt and buffer systems in my PCC's are all JP with triggers being Hyperfire or POF.  There are certainly other high quality options out there but the key is quality, proven components if you are wanting serious results.

     

     

  5. Using the 124 gr Precision Delta at 1.125 OAL and runs in all mags - including Goliath, TF +10 and the TACCOM.  I've loaded out to your desired OAL with a FMJ RN but with my current bullet selection the 1.125 is flawless with great accuracy.  Hope this helps....

  6. Been running Gunzilla on the last 2 PCC's.   Run the bolts and interior of the upper wet and never had an issue on many 1000's of rounds.   Carbon wipes off with a dry cloth and no appreciable wear on any of the parts. 

  7. I'm assuming you are meaning the Everglades 124 JHP??   N320 is the way to go as it's super clean and accurate.  3.9gr at 1.125 OAL to start should put the PF around what you are looking for....

  8. +1 on what Bwillis noted....

     

    I'm running an SLR 13.7 on a 14.5 barrel.  Barrel is completely in the HG and comp is fully outside.   Perfect match.   

     

    One thing you may want to consider is putting a small hand stop at the end of the HG.   With your supporting arm fully extended its pretty easy to get your off hand close to the comp (not a good thing).

    It's about blocking your peripheral vision. Guys like to talk about weight and then hang 50+ rounds of 147gr. ammo out of the magwell ;)

     

    I've tried both the dot and circle dot in matches and some drills, as well as having experience w/  Eotechs/Hueys on AR's. IMO what people miss about the circle/dot is the benefit of mechanical offset indexing. How many times have you seen guys blast no-shoots in the face at 3 yards? What about shooting over/head box at 30 yards?

     

    Those are easy(er) with the 65MOA circle. Bottom of circle is your up-close offset, top of your circle is your distance offset. Much faster than Kentucky windage with a 2moa dot....assuming you train with it and plan for it on your walk-through. That said, if you're having trouble with alphas vs. speed, I do think the dot allows for aim small miss-small vs just trying to center the ring on the A-zone and pulling the trigger. 

     

    True, but 50 plus rounds hanging out the bottom of a 6 lb PCC is significantly different than doing the same in a 7.5 to 8 lb version especially when you start playing with the right balance point.

  10. Just weighed a shell / cover from a 510c and it went 488 gr or 1.11 oz. on my scale. 

     

    It will not make a lot of difference weight wise but when you are chasing a certain overall weight and balance that I'm doing (mostly for fun as I'm into winter boredom) then it all adds up.   

     

    That being said I was told earlier today by an old friend that I'm picking the Fly Sh*t out of the Pepper! 🧐

     

    It does though may for a better overall vision on your target.
