  1. My Versa Max 28 inch shot about 8.5 inches to the right at 50 yards. Sent it back to Remington and now it is dead on at 60 yards. The report states that they changed barrel, forearm, and trigger group. What the report did not say anything about was they removed and re-installed the mag tube, because the holes where the indents were are now rotated about 75 degrees. My belief is the mag tubes are not lined up correctly as some many others have stated above.

    Remington charged me ZERO dollars and paid shipping both ways.

  2. I was hoping that you or your dad would reply here. The old spring was the older style dark spring and has ran very good in the 1100 for me. The tube on the Versa Max must be a little longer. The new spring is the stainless looking spring. 17 inches past the tube just seemed to be much more than I thought, but I wanted to start long. I have seen many times here that 14 for a +6 tube is about normal. I am going to drop back to around 15 inches to give more of a buffer for loading the last round.

    Thanks

  3. I installed the Nordic MXT +7 tube from my 1100 on a new Versa Max using a new Versa Max nut and the old spring and that was cut at 14 inches in the 1100. The last round was not feeding on the Versa Max and only measured 13 inches in the Versa Max. Installed a new Nordic spring, I thought I would start long and cut until I could load 11 in the mag. So cut it 17 inches and installed, found 11 would go in to the mag with around 3/8 inch to spare.

    Is this too much spring for a Versa Max with a +7 tube? Seems to be working great as is.

  5. I would not stop the shooter until the mag that was handed to him was inserted into the gun. At that point he has given up the option of retrieving a dropped mag and has excepted outside assistance that would give him a big advantage.

    If aloud to continue then targets would have to be scored as shoot with only procedurals as the only option. 2 procedurals per target is a advantage over 2 mikes and a FTE per target.

    As RO's we are not to give advantage to or take advantage away from any shooters, but keep the COF as equal as possible for each and every shooter in the match.

  6. The biggest problem with the 1100 is if you can make it run good is that you can out cycle it very easily. To get mine to work I had to cut the Dave's metalworks loader about half the normal length. After opening up the loading port, and rounding the lift gate a little, just like you would a Versa Max, I can load 10 rounds into it in 6 to 7 seconds using the load two method. Mine will work if I wait for it to cycle, meaning feel the bolt fully close and the rounds to fall against the stop in the mag tube before pulling the trigger again.

    My 1100 is a 28 inch with a plus 7 tube making it a 11 and one gun. I am waiting for the funds to move up to a Versa Max in the near future too.

    Forgot the most important thing, I know that I will never be one of the top shooters, but damn I have fun shooting 3 Gun.
