Thanks, I have had two fall out recently.

Mine runs 9mm and 38sc but not 38s.

What size are the retaining pins?

I had to swap followers and springs to get mine to run. I need to shoot more than 2-3 rounds or they will not drop free. It's not usually an issue but it can be on certain stages...

You must make adjustments to the bullet dropper. It is sensitive to bullet profile. Be careful if you dissemble. There are, I think three, small BB's inside that are very easy to lose.

I measured some .223 cases and 38SC cases. The .223 cases were around 10 thousands smaller in diameter. In a worst case scenario, where the case is 10 thousands away from the extractor, it seems like it could slip off. Can anyone confirm if a super extractor has a longer hook? Also, would this fix FTE issues with cut down .223?

The .223 case rim is a few thousandth smaller than 38SC. Would a super extractor have enough contact area with a .223 case?

Unless you are volunteering some of your brass, I'd still like to find a lower cost option.

I can't always recover my brass. Also, I can get .223 cases for free, which beats paying for 38SC brass. Its something i wanted to try. I was hoping someone else may have figured out how to get it to run in a super comp gun.

My gun is 100% with 38SC.

aftec extractor in a 38sc gun. Mostly failure to extract. I can understand a FTE when I am firm firing. However, form fired "should" run, its only 1 or 2 thousands off from 38SC in the rim area.

Has anyone had any success with cut down .223 cases? I get FTE and double feeds frequently with cut down .223. However supercomp runs 100%.

Roll sized, once fired from a police range. Then, plunk tested in my barrel. I haven't had any ammo related issues at a major match.

I also like PD, 124 JHP. Accurate and cost effective.

Measure the diameter of the bullets. I got a batch that was under sized.

I tried 200 grainer's with a 6" gun and didn't like them. I dont remember my load. I am using 180 zero jhp, 4.5 grains n310, 1.185 coal. It made 172pf at nats last year.

I don't have any issues with mixed head stamp 40 brass. Having said that, I run same head stamp for major matches. I can feel a differnce in 9mm, especially 9 major.

It solved a problem for me in 40. As a bonus, I can get an extra round in a big stick. I put a pw drive on my case pro, so I roll all my brass.

I think I am going to wait for one to come up on the classifieds.

It is very loud! 10.1 grains of 3n38 drove the gun down.

That is why I said IMM and did not refer to barrel length. It is definitely not a gov length.

I bought an IMM on here and it is fantastic(black slide). My friend has an older SV for sale with different style barrel and comp(stainless) I am trying to cost effectively duplicate my gun. I assume the same barrel and comp should make the guns "feel" very close. It it seems like rebarreling should be fairly easy...

I am trying to duplicate my IMM without paying a small fortune.

I was afraid of that.

Is the SV IMM barrel the same as hybrid that they sell on their website?
