Midway also sells them!

I just purchased a Model 610 and have the following to report. I load my .40 cal long 1.24 which is very simular to my 10 mm factory loads and have not seen any change in accuracy between the two loads. The .40's definitely make for an easier follow-up shot.
I use the .40 for Steel and 10mm for carry, oh yet 2.5" barrel.

Oh, it is so worth it!
Congrats!

I have 2 9mm SS and just love the way they shoot. Primary shoot Steel, but will be shooting SS minor next year for fun.

You've got to shoot a few hundreds rounds through it to break it in.

Buy with confidence! I have 2 full size S&W 1911's and a scandium commander that are fantastic shooters and have been 100% reliable. For the guy getting the brass back in the head, that is an ejector tuning issue.

I have an SVI IMM Open gun with 2 port comp and 4 blow holes. I run the OAL at 1.235 - 1.240 to prevent dragging on the mags. I use 10.4g 3N38, WSP, 121 IFP Montana Golds and a crip at .378 and get 171 PF consistently at matches around the country.
Have fun!

Actually ITW is the Parent company, the company I work for. I'll get some samples when I get back from Europe this week.
-
OAL on my guns is between 1.235 - 1.24, but it depends on how the barrel was cut. Don't know about the Autocomp.
-
Very nice, so much so I bought one!
-
I've bought and sold more than a dozen guns on Gunbroker without incident. Recommended!

I have followed the instructions on my 2 JP rifles and they still shoot tiny groups years later. Is time the issue, really... after you spent that much on a JP?

Sounds fun, I wish I was going to be available!

Brian - We would love to have you conduct a training class in conjunction with the Ohio Sectional, then you could write off the whole trip!
-
Excellent pre-planning and coordination with the other big matches! I wish others would follow your lead!

It has been said already, it depends on how serious ($) you want to get or are in it today! I have a Ruger MkIII, S&W Model 41 and a Marvel 1911 top end. The Marvel and M41 are serious shooters and very good for bullseye. The Ruger is fun and really good for USPSA, Steel Plate, bowling pin practice or plinking. I have a Tactical Solutions Pac-Lite on the Ruger, also good fun.
I hope this helps you in your quest.

+1 for Bedell! I have a Bedell Shorty in 38SC that runs like a champ! Dan communicates well and is reasonably priced.

You have to duplicate the conditions (coffin etc) to expect the same results. My PF was within one point between Area 5 and the Ohio Sectional.

I have to admit when I heard the storm at 7:00 am I turned off the alarm and went back to sleep. I had enough rain the previous week at A5 to last me a few months. I was pissed by noon when the sun came out so I went downstairs and dryfired and made bullets.

I have 2 stock SV big sticks with standard SV springs, followers and 3 mm base pads and get 29 rounds reloadable. I just purchased the new aluminum followers from SV and can squeeze 30 into one of the mags and only 29 in the other. It is a rare occasion I will load 29+1.
-
Granny - you don't have to reload, just find the right production ammo to be legal for the division you want to shoot. All sports have to have rules for all the reasons everyone identified above. Have fun and don't worry about the reloading!
-
I didn't pay that much attention to it over the course of 3 days and only 3 not making minor. I was more interested in the folks shooting 185 PF in production (Glock 21SF and G35)!
-
Well, as one of the Chrono guys at the Ohio Sectional I can tell you we were sad for the 3 people who went sub-minor at the match. From my prior experiences as "a chrono guy", the people shooting Remington UMC ammo alway have problems. Add a short barrel gun and several other brands can be added to the list.
My 2 cents is along the lines of Aztecdriver's, a person should be prepared for the level of match they plan to shoot. I went minor my first Level II because I didn't have a chrono (I was shooting limited with a Glock 35).
Ranger - The rules are there to make sure everyone, everywhere has the same playing field. The new folks that like the Level I matches and plan to shoot a Level II or III match should get their gun/ammo combo checked before the match, they owe it to themselves.

I originally had the problem with my STI 9mm 1911, but once I went to a longer OAL (i will have to check when I get home) the problem went away.
Does anyone have a Team Infinity 6in Limited Gun?
in 1911-style Pistols

+A on Brandon and SVI's customer service! I just ordered the 5.4" Limited gun to go with my 5" SV's and my IMM Open gun. I was't sure about the balance of the 6" so I split the difference and the 5.5" which will be legal by the next shooting season.
