I respectfully disagree. I have a few of both. It doesn't make you shoot any better, and I've seen guys win tournaments with Remington 1100s, but the craftsmanship and longevity of a Krieghoff compared to a Browning isn't even close. Brownings are great guns, but they simply don't compare. In sporting clays we have a saying, "it's the archer, not the arrow". Meaning it's the shooter, not his equipment. I used to take pictures for a magazine. And every once in a while I'd take a nice one. When someone said, that's a nice picture, what kind of camera did you use, I'd think , did they ask Picasso what kind of paint he used, because his paintings are nice.

I shoot a Krieghoff shotgun (pictured below). It cost about 15 times what my Browning 525 cost. I get that nice things cost money. A baseline Krieghoff is about 5 times a Browning. They only difference between mine and a baseline is mine's spruced up. Is there a difference between a Krieghoff and a Browning? Yes A k-gun (that's what the cool kids call them) is a far superior to a Browning. After 15,000 rounds a Browning needs a rebuild. After 15,000 rounds a k-gun is just getting broken in. My grandkids and their grandkids will be shooting it. I can feel the difference. When I handled the Korth, I couldn't. Has anybody ever seen a Korth at an ICORE match? .

Agreed, as long as you want a 9 pound trigger

Is the glass half full, or half empty? I've already got a fishing trip planned for August. August of 2023. For me, the earlier I plan the better. I'm just glad there are matches to attend.

Interesting, thanks.

My 929 slugged at .357

SDM Super Sights fiber optic front sight. Speed Beez reloaders, Armscor .22 is the earliest to set off. With Armscor I can go as light as 7 pounds, everything else needs 8+.

A geezer

Ok.

I tried to get ICORE on my license plate, but couldn't. So I got the next best thing.

Agreed, I just said, I've never heard of it. It's a pretty specialized round. Just like most gun shops don't carry .257 ackley improved. I've never seen it, but it might be out there.

OP, STOP, STOP, STOP, you're in over your head. Nobody reverse engineers a factory load, and I've never heard of a gun shop selling 9mm major. Reloading is fun, but you have to walk before you run.

Dude, you're not going to blow your head off, your hand, sure, but not your head

I hate hobos, they stink on ice

OP, stop. You're in over your head. Find someone that can help you in person.

I'm not a gunsmith by any stretch of the imagination. But I had my gun worked on by one. I bought a trigger pull gauge just for fun. Mine always comes in at 5.75 +/-. But it's only reliable with fully seated Federal Small Pistol Primers. It won't fire anything else. .

OP, if you're new to reloading, 9mm major is NOT the place to start.

I shot my buddy's early 80s stock Python. Meh, it wasn't as nice my S&W. When you thumb the hammer back on a Python it's smooth, but that's about it.

I was up in Las Vegas at the SCI convention (Safari Club International) yesterday, and Nighthawk had a display. Mostly high priced 1911s, but they had a few Korth Revolvers as well. The guy working the booth asked if I'd like to see one, and I jumped at the chance. Who wouldn't want to handle a five grand revo? Imagine my disappointment when I was wholly unimpressed. The sales rep went on and on about how smooth the trigger was. Yeah, all eight or nine pounds of it. Next up was the push button cylinder release. Like that wouldn't fall out half way thru a stage ? I'm comparing these $5000 Korths to my $1000 Kirbisized 627. You know the one with a 5.5lb trigger pull and the cylinder that stays in place? Anybody actually own or shoot one of these? What are your thoughts?

Sure, gas is so expensive we can't drive them anyway

Beats me, that's what Jim Scoutten from Shooting USA tv told me. Of course that was right after I had contacted ICORE on their Facebook page, and emailed Gorka. I wrote for Sporting Clays Magazine for a while, so I know a little bit about how this works. http://www.ysr-racer.com/sporting_clays/dlcc.htm
