[The picture thread for rimfire rifles!]

That’s definitely a sweet shooter RaginCajun! You did well with it last SC match. I’d like to give it a try next time!

Thanks for the discount code!

[Which M&P mag extensions for CO]

I'm gearing up to give Carry Optics a run and wanted to ask which magazine extensions everyone likes or suggests for a S&W M&P 9mm Pro Series. I'm looking at the Taran Tactical and Springer Precision 140mm extensions but undecided as to which way to go. Thanks for the help!

[PCC and rimfire low ready prop]

We had our match this past Saturday and ended up using a 2"x2" drove in the ground. Painted it bright orange and it measured 24" tall from grade. Hope this helps someone. 

 

Special thanks to Zack for providing a lot of support to make our match a success!

Cool thanks

Hello,

 

What's everyone using for the starting points for PCC and rimfire?  I've seen small traffic cones and plastic signs with a round aiming point. 

Thanks

[Youth shotgun opinions]

Thanks to all for the suggestions. I can definitely see that which ever way we go, fitting will be very important. Thanks for the link to fitting Mark. We'll have to take a look at the different options and go from there.

[Youth shotgun opinions]

Hello all, my 12 son is wanting to start participating in multi-gun and I would appreciate others opinions on shotguns for junior shooters. He's been shooting Steel Challenge and USPSA for a few years and enjoys it. We have youth model pump action 20 gauges to get started but what's some good semi-autos to look into? I'm open (pun intended) to open shotguns with comps too. 

Thanks

Jim

[Positive feedback for Double Alpha]

Hello, I want to share a positive experience I had with Double Alpha customer service. 

The hangar for my magnetic magazine pouch broke and I inquired to DAA about purchasing a replacement. When a package arrived from Europe, I found not one but two hangars inside, complimentary.  A great example of customer service and a commitment to shooters. I will continue to buy and use equipment from a company that supports their customer base.

Thanks DAA!

[650 and high primer issue]

I started getting high primers on day and mine was the primer seater assembly loosened up underneath. Tightened it up and no more high primers.

[.40 using 140 gr. Bayou and 231]

Sorry no help for 231 but I use 4.6 grains of WST with a Bayou 140 at 1.135". Feeds and shoots great out of our Edges.

[40 shooters that shoot major and minor]

Different bullets here with 4.6 gn WST in both our Edges (myself and son). Bayou bullet 180 TC @1.135 for major and 140 TC for minor.

Jim

[Miner loads]

I run 4.6 WST with a 140 Bayou in our Edges. Great for steel matches and very reliable. Haven't chronoed but very soft.

Jim

[Fun with 95gr Bayou and TiteGroup]

I really liked the Bayou 105 9mms with 3.5 of WST. Very soft and fun in my M&P.

Jim

[P320C replacing my G19?]

Another fan of the 320 here. I replaced my M&P .45 compact with a Sig P320 9mm compact for everyday carry. I wanted to switch to 9mm for more ammo capacity. Much better stock trigger and ergonomics. Only complaint is the location of the slide lock lever as its further back on the frame and my strong hand thumb rides on it. Minor grip adjustment and all is well. Very accurate with Hornady Critical Duty 135 gn ammo. I went with a local holster maker for an IWB kydex holster. Really wanted a Comptac Infidel holster like I've used for years but they're not available yet.

Jim

[.40 minor load w/ Bayou 140 grain TC]

I load the 140s at 1.135 with 4.6 WST. Runs good in my Edges with factory recoilmasters.

Jim

[Lining up sizing die with station 1 on XL650]

I'm having the same issue. Talked to Dillon CS and its hard to troubleshoot since its sporadic. Only happening for 9mm on my 650, no problems at all when loading .40.

Using Dillon dies and doesn't happen on a particular shell plate hole. I've made sure the shell plate is clean without any powder in the grooves and doesn't matter if the shell plate is full or not. When the shell plate is raised up, I have to push the brass into the sizing die a little by hand when it doesn't go far enough under the resizing die. Tried a friends case insert slide and slide cam and that didn't seem to help either. I may buy a different tool head and see if that helps.

Hopefully someone can chime in for some help.

[What hand load works best in your M&P 9? or 9L?]

Mine likes MG 124 JHP with 4.1 grains of N320 at 1.14". 130 PF

[Press mounted bullet puller]

How do these (Hornady,RCBS, & grip n pull) work with coated lead bullets?
