I personally won’t run DA/SA in steel challenge because that got annoying real quick with my S2.
I was wondering about that also.

General question ... for Prod and Carry Optics, do people generally prefer lighter guns? I know B.J. won both divisions with a Glock, but guys like that, at that level, can really shoot anything. Are guns like the PDP Steel frame and Shadow 2 not optimal? If you were picking out a new gun, what would it be?

I have a 617 inbound, but I don't know anything about 22LR. I know it will be barrel dependent, but is there any ammo I should definitely consider? Any I should absolutely stay away from? Thanks.

Gone. Mods can lock. Thanks.

I would pay the extra $50 for the shrink factor of the Garmin or Labradar LX.
-
At the moment, the Garmin can only export one string at a time, correct?

OH great, and I just bought a Garmin. I like my Labradar better then the Garmin but it's kind of a pain because of the size and battery situation. I didn't see an accuracy claim on the Garmin and I was getting a 2% difference on them side by side.
Which do you think has the better phone app and interface? That is one of the deciding factors for me.

I haven't seen any reviews. I don't think they are available for the public until end of March / early April.

Saw a Shot Show video of the product. Looks about the same size as the Garmin unit. Same price also. More info on the LabRadar website here.

Anyone shoot pins? The discussion in a recent thread that touched on pin guns got me thinking ... if you were to build a dedicated pin revo, what would it be?

Got them from Bob at 4WheelGuns.com They have a magnet in them and the speedloaders have a ferromagnetic screw in them that holds the loader in place in the holder. They're also handy for steel challenge shooting.

Check out WRB. Althought not exactly the same layout, they have a mini-range bag that is similar. And it's made in USA.

Hopefully someone can use.

Your scores will benefit greatly by removing the O ring before the match.
LOL! Yes, good benefit.

For me ...
38S = Tripp
45 = Wilson 47D or ETM

So I drilled two holes in the strap already, but I think I did a good job. Other than that, I never really got around to using it. The invoice says it includes:
1" Aluminum Ratcheting Buckle - High Release Type
1" x 13" Custom Ladder Strap - SOFT
Ladder Strap Feed/Retainer
Specialty Hardware
Hopefully someone can use it.

Is there any advantage now to the Dillon RL1100 if the Apex is selling at around the same price? Unless I'm missing something ... a RL1100 w/ caliber kit = Apex 10.

Yes, same bullet. One thing I didn't notice before was the barrel lengths used. Hodgdon's notes a 7.7" barrel vs Hornday's 4".
I will start with the lowest load like Guy suggested and work up. I will just watch the chrono. I'll be interested to see what the results are so I'll have a better idea of which book to grab first when working up any future loads.

I'm trying to work up a 38 Special load for Steel Challenge (so PF not important). I have 4 different Hodgdon powders and a bunch of Hornady 125gr FP/XTP bullets on hand. When I look at the Hodgdon and Hornady reloading manuals, they seem to have differing suggested powder loads.
For example, for 231 powder, the Hodgdon manual has:
- Starting Load: 4.3 gr
- Maximum Load : 4.9 gr
- OAL 1.455"
while the Hornady manual has:
- Starting Load: 4.8 gr
- Maximum Load : 5.7 gr
- OAL 1.450"
I would expect some differences, but not that much ... especially with the Hornady loads having a shorter OAL. So my question is, what should be my method for choosing the range of loads to try?
Thanks.

For the life of me I can't get my SDM sight to install on my 627. Anyone know a trick that I'm missing? I've installed other DX sights, but this one seems impossible. I think because of the length of the actual sight. My fingers are tore up!

Yeah, it's the Performance Center version, 5", with aluminum case etc. 1100 shipped.
I found one not too long ago. Didn't come with an aluminum case though. Is it a factory case?

Cool granny!

I think it makes sense, considering most people in the sport nowadays either get a Dillon or a Mark7. Everything else can fall under "Other Reloading Equipment".
