This is the first time loading for this gun. I had a redding seating die which I changed back to Dillon Dies which has a separate crimping die. My buddies round was the same oal, his crimp was .418" which I did try today on my load. I bought this gun used with a very low round count. (500) The gun has a Shuemann AET barrel which has never been cleaned, and shot only MG bullets.

I would call this bullet tumbling . It's has a black circle with a tear on one side of the hole.

Crimp is .420" also the barrel is an AET

I'm shooting 180 gr hp montana gold with 4.9 gr of n 320. Oal 1.180 " The bullet holes are round but there is a tear on one side of the bullet hole. It's almost as if the bullet is not entering the target straight. It seems to accurate but the hole are not perfectly round. I shoot my buddies rounds and they did make a round hole, same bullet and powder. I have changed the seating die but still does the same. This round is being shot thru a sv sight tracker. I need some advise!!!

I used Velcro and a glue called E6000 bought at the craft store. That E6000 will glue most anything to anything very strong.

I use the Bianchi # 100 for my Kimber 3". Good leather and a strong clip.

Got my skate tape at the local skate shop. They gave me scraps for free.

I run STI tuned tubes , Bolen springs,follower and bases for my limited gun

I have been using JP Enterprises trigger $119.00. Using this system for at least 12 years.

I try to shoot with better shooters. Watch them and ask questions. Take a class watch videos if possible. Shoot more matches and practice.

Need some 10 round dependable mags. for my SS. Who makes the best ones?

I have had both I like the bull barrel. As a B shooter I think the weight worked better for me in getting better hits with the second shoot.

I have been shooting a S&W 1911 the lowest cost model. It has been very dependable with both lead and plated reloads. I also have a couple Kimbers they also have been very dependable.

What would that gun be worth in califorina? Where it's very hard, expensive and difficult to buy one.
