Sees Sights Lift

Sees Sights Lift (7/11)

  1. Purpose at this point of the start is to get a good proper grip after the beep. Getting a poor grip .1sec faster than anybody else won’t really help you much…..
  2. I’ve run a U die for 9mm as a standard for all 9mm since I started reloading many years ago. As noted it is only .001” undersized and because it works never had reason to switch. On my 929 when I switched to .358 bayou’s I was worried I may be to tight a crimp but it has not been an issue and does not cut the coating.
  3. I run the same with Winchester brass and never had a creep issue. Running a .358 bullet is pretty tight when using a U-die so creep just doesn’t exist.
  4. If your going the bench top mill route you will want something of Precision Mathew’s quality or better. I did some of my work using a Little Machine Shop Hi Torque bench model which while much better than the Harbour Freight stuff still had to do some work to dissipate chatter.
  5. I run same dies, .358 Coated 160gr. The .358dia bullet fits damn tight in a 9mm case to begin with so it doesn’t take allot of crimp…
  6. If nothing shows wear check to make sure your mag width by the feed lips hasn’t widened up at all. That can cause the follower to get a little sloppy.
  7. I did mine and you really don’t loose enough weight to make it noticeable…. As mine had a pretty lousy factory crown on it it was an easy decision to make. User ysrracer shortened his quite a bit more with a new front sight. Look back at some of his 929 posts.. https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/282772-i-gave-my-sw-9mm-929-a-circumcision/
  8. Most of your grip pressure should be coming from your weak hand. Sounds to me that you may be loosening your weka hand grip slightly during recoil and re-gripping for your next shot is pulling muzzle to the left. Just a guess.. try same at slower pace in practice and see if same happens. Being conscience of of it at the slower pace it will probably go away but give you better indication of the cause.
  9. There are several aftermarket rackers for your application. When looking note that some will have a second set screw to help with retention. You can also drill and tap the original or 1 screw replacement for the second set screw…
  10. Speed Sec. Great, no nonsense, secure holsters. I have one for Witness large frame, 1911 and N Frame Revo. Very few parts but almost impossible to get anything needing replacement….
  11. I’ve run a 8moa FTP optic on my Open major gun since they first came out with no issues at all with it. I now have one on my S&W 929 and love it!
  12. If you start to chamfer the edge your showing it will get to thin and they will break off in a short period of time and cause all kinds of problems. Ask me how I know…
  13. To be blunt, your visual powder check system is failing and needs to be corrected. No better assurance than your eyes…. Are you using good lighting? Do you recall any hang ups with your loading process during this time? Many if not most no powder loads are do to an error after recovering from a loading process issue.
