Heres my load. should'nt be too much different from 69g COAL 2.250" with Lapua Match brass Fed SRP. I used a trickle powder drop to ensure consistency. I also have a 18" 1:7 twist FN barrel>

Anyone out there using Alliant e3 powder for major PF in .40 limited division? No reloading info online from alliant because it's a fairly new shotgun powder. Just need a starting point Thanks y'all!!
-
Yes USPSA! Thanks everyone so far.

The 4 day course is $750. Forgot to mention that.

Hello BE friends. I'm talking to World Champ Max Michel about doing classes here in Florida. I'm thinking Malabar Rifle/Pistol in Palm Bay Florida. It's near Melbourne Beach. There are other possible locations like New Smryna, St. Augustine or Titusville.
I'm looking to see if there would be any interest. The class would be limited to 10. He offers several different courses. The one I'm looking at would be basically a 3 day course (1-classroom, 2-shooting days+ shooting a local match with Max.) If there is enough interest I'll firm up a date with Max and post info on this forum.
I've trained with Max before, and can attest to his professionalism and teaching ability. He is an exceptional teacher!!! You WILL learn things that will help you to be a better shooter.
I will check this forum once a day for 2 weeks OR you can pm me. Thanks guys!!!

I run SV springs in my 1911-2011. Spot on and pretty consistent. Try those too.
-
I do!!! I love them. Especially the SV signature grip. The ergonomics are awesome. If you can afford it....do it. Not sure what SV's lead time is but it's worth the wait. Try speedshooters intl too. Sometimes they have them in stock
-
For an open gun. Get mine next month

Talked to Brandon at SV a while ago and they were developing a new thumb rest. Does anyone have any pics or it experience with it?
-
Oh yeah. Roll that support hand forward so your thumb is pointed at the target.
-
I read an article from the " Great One". He suggests locking the wrists for better recoil control and muzzle flip. I tried it and seemed the front sight returned faster and the same spot on the target a lot faster. As someone suggested. Try it. Works for me.

Just use glass cleaner you use to clean prescription glasses with. I used a q-tip as well to get the corners.
-
I ran a 4 moa till I tried the 2 moa. I liked the 2 moa for the tight shots as it didn't cover up the entire target. However I had to turn it up to full bright to see it well especially with sunglasses. So keep that in mind
-
I love my SV FO front sight. No issues seeing the front sight under all light conditions. Question: what kind of glasses do you use. I use clear Oakley.
-
Infinity Firearms. Get it with TiN coat. You won't regret it.
-
.38 super comp.
-
Break down and get a new or used SV. Just say'n
-
I personally like the all metal guns. I find the recoil management to be better....for me. It is a bit subjective tho. Try both and go with what you're comfortable with.
-
Max Michelle uses one I believe.
Yep he does
-
Nothing at the moment, but they are talking about making one in some near future.
I ordered one with my open gun order. Mmmm
-
Just get an SV

My 2cents: I started off with a kimber 1911 in idpa then moved right into open with a Bedell open gun. Beautiful gun but I didn't like the polymer grips. I wanted more weight to the gun. STILL had an aluminum grip tha had problems with cracking. It all changed when SV started making steel grips. I got my hands on an SV limited gun and haven't looked back. I now have an open build within SV which should arrive in Sept.
Dan Bedell, SV and Akia custom all offer metal grips. You can't go wrong with any of these custom guns. I prefer SV.
Best Single tip for running a good stage
in Handgun Techniques
Posted
I typically come to the match a day early (or early enough to walk the stages for a local match)and watch others run the stage. This gives me a basic idea. I then form a plan for the stage by walking it and committing to memory start positions, movement and reloads. I then look for ways to “save time” in movement and transitions based on target position and body position. Once I’ve figured out the most economical way to attack the stage I burn it in my memory. Then run it ten times in my mind before shooting the stage and once more at the make ready. God bless.
