Looking for WST loads for 180gr Blue Bullets out of a 5" STI Edge
taco101 replied to uod's topic in 10mm/40 Caliber
4.8gr with a 180gr coated @ 1.142 was barely major out of my Sig 1911max. 4.9 was butter. -
Production CZ SP-01 Time 7.03 Points 52 HF 7.3969 Calcs to 75.9% Saw two 100% runs right before I shot....That did not help....

So far so good on the one I ordered. The feel is surprisingly real. It is great for adding movement in my drills.

Shot this one today, Production CZ SP-01. Steel then paper in 6.17 46 points. Works out to 7.4554HF. I think its about 74.5%.

Swapped in a 17lb hammer spring, 13 lb recoil spring, took out the series 80's parts, polished the trigger bow, disco, and trigger channel. Pinned the grip safety. Nice 3 Lb break. Now I have a spare Brazos trigger kit. The stock parts worked great with a little love.

Couldn't find a .40 springer.

My wife has been enjoying single stack quite a bit. Her 9mm needed a stablemate. So, after a delayed NICS background check.... Yay....I picked up our new Sig 1911 Max Michel in .40. Fit and finish is quite good. Trigger is....heavy. Probably 7 or 8 lbs, and a bit creepy. Brazos pro parts on the way. The gun fit my wifes holster fine, mine needed a touch of heat gun...now it fits fine. The front sight is beautifully narrow and bright. Took some 170pf rounds to the range today. I am impressed by the way it shoots. Considerably softer than a G-35 with the same loads. It is oversprung. So I ordered a couple of recoil springs to try. WIth 180gr coated bullets it is quite accurate. My Wilson .45 mags work fine but need a longer base pad. Dawsons ordered. Overall it is a nice gun and my wife is thrilled....which makes me thrilled! She called dibs at the next match!

Sig Sauer 1911 Traditional Match in 40 S&W
taco101 replied to shotgunone's topic in 1911-style Pistols
19lbs so I read. -
Last week I picked up a CS SP-01 at a great price. LGS did the NICS background check and went right through. Today my Sig 1911 MaxM came in and I rushed out to pick it up. NICS came back delayed. I was carrying two guns at the time.... Makes no sense.

Anyone loading heavier than 180 grain for limited 40?
taco101 replied to nikdanja's topic in 10mm/40 Caliber
Thanks, gonna give these a try. -
Ordered one today. Now off to find target materials.

I recently got a CZ SP-01 and ugraded it quite a bit. I added Dawson Precision sights. They only required slight fitting. I centered the rear sight up....I thought.....and called it good. First match didn't have any far targets really. Last Saturdays Match had a BUNCH of targets 20-25 yards away and they were mostly partials. I hit mostly hard cover and no shoots on those targets. All to the left. I sucked it up and figured I was having trigger control issues..... Then I decided to check the poi. At 25 yards I was 4 inches left. Plenty for me to call an A and hit hard cover. I moved the rear sight just a little and it hits poa/poi. Cost me quite a few points! Live and learn.

550B roller handle... necessary, or nicety?
taco101 replied to Fatso's topic in Miscellaneous BEginners
I didnt worry to much about the stock ball handle until recently. I am loading a bunch more and I got a blister after 1000 round session. I tried the sock....and hated it. Roller handle for sure. -
You hit the last two plates like chip shots. Those plates on the star were the same. Don't let the movement change that.

Got my CGW trigger kit in yesterday and spent the afternoon installing it. I also polished all of the interfaces in my SP-01. Don't have a trigger gauge but it is MUCH better! I will caution that if you do a kit, be careful when reassembling the sear cage. Those springs fly easy and are hard to find. I'll order a couple spares for the future. It was not as much of a hassle as I thought it might be. Easy instructions on this forum and on CZ Firearms forum. THIS was a great resource in disassembly and reassembly. 10x bushing waiting on my Dawson sights to get here.

October 9th was a beautiful day in Santa Fe, NM. I love to race my bike and this day was the first Cyclocross race of the year for me. The days prior were dark with family tragedy. A hard race would clear my mind...(was also missing the High Desert Classic...) Well, I was almost done warming up when I took flight. Exactly how I don't know. I do know when I landed it sounded like a baseball bat breaking. That was my humerus and glenoid breaking into a bunch of pieces. Ambulance ride to a great hospital, 7 hour surgery, then 3 months of rehab and I am at least back to work. Still doing rehab. But Saturday I was able to hit the range for the first time since the crash and 9mm didn't hurt at all! Gonna hit a match this Saturday...We'll see where I am in my recovery then. I promise only to blame some of the Charlie's on my arm.........

Cool! Thanks!

Glad I found this! I ordered a CGW Pro trigger kit this weekend.

Last years season ended with me in the hospital, surgery, and a LENGTHY...as in Im still recovering.... I missed a couple bigger matches.....but such is life. At the NM Sectional I got to play with a CZ. I was intrigued. I put a bunch of time thinking...strange how much time you have when you can't work...or leave the house...or get out of a chair..... Fast forward to this morning, we have a Steel Challenge match to go to, but rain changed our mind. There is a gunshow here so, why not. Second row I found a new CZ SP01 sitting there. After a bit of wheeling and dealing I bought it! I love shooting open....but I am gonna do the trigger and sights on the SP01 and czech out Production!!!!
