Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Here is the verdict, the gallery was right, it is a PTR-91!!! Thanks all for the great feedback and accurate information, this is why Enos is one of the best forums around!!! I agree this would be a great buy if it was a HK. I would not buy a PTR-91 though, stick with the AR platform....
  2. This is excellent feedback, Kurt, thank you! If it is a real HK, it would be a great deal at face value, I totally understand your points on why it may not be the kind of platform I seek. I will get the scoop next week!!! Thanks agian.
  3. My information may be outdated but if its an orginal HK then I think its a steel at that price. Some of the cheap knock offs were going for 500.00 a while back. They may be around 900.00 now. Originals were going over 2k last i looked at them so I cant imagine them dropping that much. I have one so i hope not. Any thing inparticular I need to look at? I will make sure it is a real HK, strip it down ad inspect it,
  4. Thanks, I will get more details on it next week and share...
  5. Thanks all for your input, we did not get chronoed, the loads functioned the weapon very well, not feed probs from the mag, so the gun shot well , but I did not!! Still getting adjusted to the IDPA game, to many procedurals, and I traded accuracy for speed, which cost me heavily, my overall time was great, but I was crushed on droped points. Thanks agian for your input guys!!!
  6. I am contemplating purchasing a HK 91, saw one for sale , I can get it for 900.00. Excellent shape! what I would like to know is would I be better off building up a .308 AR? I would like to have a long range semi-auto sniper weapon, any advice or experience would be appreciated regarding this weapon as well as comparisons to AR variants. Thanks!!
  7. Had to switch guns at the last minute, My STI Eagle turned into a single-shot, now shooting Glock 35. Idaho State Championship tommorow morning (IDPA), unable to chrono now, here is the load: .40 cal 180 MG 4.2-4.3 TG OAL 1.15 Will this work? Thanks Greg
  8. Great stuff guys, thanks you! Question so that I really understand the relationship between OAL and Powder charge. If I keep the same charge and increase OAL, the PF goes down and vice-versa? Another dumb question! What does the extractor have to do with a feeding problem? I did increase the OAL for my STI to 1.95-1.23 (variation) I increased to 4.4 TG from 4.2. It cycles fine now, but once in a while hangs up reloading from slide-lock. A good bump on the slide and it goes home. I think I am close. I am getting a chrono tommorow so that I can tend to that part of the business. I will do seperate loads for the G35 and STI as advised until I get more experiance and I can tinker with a round that works well with both. Maybe getting the extractor tweaked will help. Anything else I should be thinking of doing besides the chrono.?
  9. I am not set on anything, if I go much longer I will not squeeze them in a GLock mag, I will lighten the spring, I am trying to make it shoot as soft as possiable, is that a function of powder load right now?
  10. Newbie reloader, just got my new 650 fired up and put together an initial load. The specs are: 180 MG FMJ TG-4.2 OAL-1.16 They fit in my Glock mag and don't bind, the Glock eats them up fine, running a 13 lb spring, cycles well. However my STI is stock other then a nice 2.5 lb trigger. She does not cycle these rounds well, I beleive the stock spring is a 15 lb spring. Accuracy is fine. I did not spend a lot of time working on this, I just had to run out and see if they work. I was shooting all A's at all ranges out to 40 ft. At 20 ft groups were half dollar, so I can tweak later if I need too. So what was happening is every 4th or 5th round it would hang up on the ramp, I could hit the back of the slide and it would go into battery fine. So what are the recomendations out there. My goal is too have a round that works both guns well, is that unrealistic? Also I do not have a chrono, (I Know, I Know) I will get one!!! Get lighter spring in STI? Increase powder charge? Reduce OAL? Other? Thanks
  11. That is good advice, I will concentrate on that! Thank you
  12. Holy Crikies! That is a serious addition!!! I like it but I would have to be reloading gobs of ammo!!!!!
