  1. Semi Jacketed Hollow Points are designed for defense and popular in bullets targeted at revolver cartridges. No magazine or feed ramp to contend with so more flexibility in design to ensure reliable expansion
  2. I'm looking to pick one up. Whats the deal with the mags.....is it an issue of the factory PARA mags not being reliable or simply not being available for separate purchase yet?
  3. I've been using Froglube and its working great
  4. Curious whether anyone has an idea of what could be causing this case damage on a Dillon 550b. Its some issue with the powder die but I'm not sure what the cause is?
  5. I'm looking forward to getting mine!
  6. Thanks for the info! Will pick up some other brands once I shoot up all this Winchester I bought. Outside of that I am very happy with the Utility.....shoots well!
  7. The 930 I used to have did the same thing with the bulk winchester shells from Walmart. I have even seen a pump 870 do the same thing. Best bet is to find other shells and save the bulk Walmart stuff for over unders. 870s are known for having issues with the winchester bulk. The federal tend to be a little better. Honestly a good chamber polishing may be in order to help with ejection of any cheaper, thin hulled ammunition. Thanks! I took back out on Friday and had the same issues. Noticed it doesn't happen till it begins to warm up...say 15 shells into shooting. Gonna shoot up the rest of the Winchester Bulk and try something else. I am pleased to say that my little short barreled Utility is hell on the Trap fields! Had a great time with is much the the dismay of some of the traditionalist.
  8. Gonna polish up the chamber. Pistol appears to be fine.
  9. After much reading here, I recently picked up a new CZ 712 Utility for general purpose use and 3 Gun. Cleaned it well then took it out and ran 50rds of Walmart Bulk Winchester and 25rd Remington 00 Buck Shot through it with no issues so I was a happy camper. Last week I took it out to shoot some skeet with it in order to get some more rounds through it and noticed after the first round I begin having issues with the empty shell failing to extract. I could not get the shell to extract even when manually cycling the bolt several times. I would have to use the little fiberglass rod they keep handy on the range to remove the stuck shells. Any idea what could be causing this and what a potential fix may be? I hope to get back out there this coming Friday to try it again.

  11. I run 147gr Dardas LFP over 3.5gr of Solo 1000
  12. Looks good to me. What mount do you have the FastFire on? I have one on the new Burris AR mount and it has quickly become one of my favorite set ups.
  13. My favorite load is Dardas 147gr over Solo 1000. Just received another order from them on Friday that I plan to load up tonight.
  14. Thanks. Anyone got a formula for a N320 load? http://www.lapua.com/en/products/reloading/vihtavuori-reloading-data/relodata/6/20
  15. I have a fvorite Load using Zip with 115gr bullets. One of favorite Subsonic 9mm loads actually uses 115gr bullets and ZIP Powder. I got the load data from the back of the container. I do a lot of suppressed shooting with a 9mm AR and this load is quiet and accurate all while remaining subsonic as long as the temperature is >50 degrees. Caliber: 9mm Bullet: 115gr JHP or FMJ Charge: 4.2gr Ramshot ZIP Primer: CCI 500 or Winchester SP Velocity: 1,025 Pressure: 32,410 OAL: 1.118" This load is very quiet and functions fine in my AR and HK P7, however it doesn't cycle my Sig P226.
  16. I use 4.2gr of Zip with a 115gr FMJ as a Subsonic load for my SBR'd AR 9mm w/Trident. It chronos about 1,025 from my AR. My HK P7 like this load too, however it's a bit weak for my Sig P226.
  17. Just picked up a pound of VN340 locally at a good price and wanted to know if anyone has had any success usng this powder in 9mm......147gr specifically?
  18. Vihtavuori is the powder of choice for Alabama Ammo's Speciak K Subsonic Ammo...good stuff.
