  1. I have seen TAC mentioned and recommended for Hornady 55 gr FMJ and as a clone for M193. I just cant find a load start/max charge and velocity and OAL for it. I have a couple kegs of it and need to get a bit of info since Ramshot wont do anything other than send a link to the current data that does not show a 55 gr FMJ load at all. Thanks Ramshot. Using the search I get lots of testamonials but not much load data unless Im not using the right search terms.
  2. I use multi focal in my right eye and I like it. IF my gun blows up its on me. I still wear glasses just not true safety glasses with side shields. My work RX safety glasses are terrible. The company buys the cheapest lens in the world so I just do contacts and throw away safety glasses.
  3. You can buy any 12 rounder you find and remove the front catch with a file or dremel. I have done it many times with no worries. Even with the mags that come that way you may need to tune them to work with the magwell anyway.
  4. I see my Optician is also a Oakley dealer as well so I will ask her about those as well. I looked at the Decot and I dont care for the frame style. They dont have any wraparound to them and standing at a stage while someone else is shooting I have been peppered by small pieces of lead as have most of us on the side of my face when conversing to someone.
  5. Can you tell me which ones and did they make your lenses or who sourced them? Is there a bifocal. I wear the Guard model. I think they can do bi-focal. Give them a call, their customer service is EXCELLENT. Thats in the ballpark for what Im looking for! I have my anual eye exam this Friday and my doc is a WileyX dealer. Im going to ask about them. They know I am a shooter and we shall see.
  6. PPU brass is Serbian. The ammo is Privi Partisan. Combloc. I was thinking so. I dont find much of it and I dont want it.
  7. I'm guessing that as things start shaking out there will only be one way to shoot these classifiers if you want to make expert which may be different depending on division. Heck I'm already planning in stacking bird, buck, and slugs in my 35 round XRail gun and shooting every open classifier with all shotgun. If you get paper as optional rifle or pistol why isn't it optional with slugs or buck too? I dont think Im in danger of making expert But you are correct. Like USPSA people will game it up to the very edge if the rulemakers let them.
  8. I thought it was a russian/comblock round. Where is it from?
  9. I am one of the shooters you describe. Pistol has always been and always will be my weak link. I think I have actually figured out a couple things in this off season and have improved my pistol somewhat after many years. Shooting open when I can take targets without reloading is an easy call. Even if I were still running TAC optic and loading a sx2 I would probably load shotgun to finish this stage vs pistol.. I suspect more than a few will go that route. Maybe. If the guys making these stages wanted to level the playing field mandate which gun is used on targets. My score on this will be artificially high but I understand why. Another pistol heavy classifier will pull my score down closer to how well I really shoot. I'm not going to fret one way or another, I'm doing this for the fun not a job.
  10. This one notes I can shoot the whole thing with shotgun. Since Im an open shooter using my Akdal and 15 round mags thats a no brainer. Some of these classifiers look also like I can take advantage of using the shotgun over pistol.

  12. I have been wearing contacts for 35 years . I have glasses I wear during the time I need to give eyes a break. At 52 I cant wear contacts 24/7 like I used to even with the latest brands. I practice with my glasses which are not true safety glasses. (no lectures please I only use them at paper or straight on to plates and when alone so the chance of splatter is as low as possible end of that part of discussion) I cant ignore anymore I seem to see better with my glasses shootiing than contacts. Both scripts are up to date and from same doc. Contacts do great at distance like outdoor stadiums. ANYWAY i would like to hear from anyone who has a pair of Project Rudy, and does not sell them, with the RX Interchangable or a similar setup. I have located a local Project Rudy dealer and have found my RX has a partner who is a WileyX dealer. AND Im not going the Lasik route yet. Im just interested in RX shooting glasses.

  14. I am more concerned with a criminal targeting my home when I'm not there. That's what gun safes are for. And I DO have a large, quality safe. I see no sense in advertising. And above all else I don't want to invite a home invasion when I'm not home and my wife is since she does not shoot. If instead of blustering try thinking how a criminal might for a few minutes. Dillinger was asked why he robbed banks. He found the question funny and replied "because that's where the money is". I bet you would be suprised how many people know you have guns that you have never met. And they may not be the type you would want to know what's in your home.
  15. Well Berry's isnt taking back orders, I have a notificaion email set for Rainier and Xtreme wont let me do anything but a wish list. Need to check Midway and see what they have shaking. Crazy.
  16. I'm a bit nervous I'm going to run out of reloads before I can get more 147's from DeltaPrecision. Montana Gold runs almost perfect but also way back ordered. The bayou bullets not so much. Thinking of trying to source some plated RN 147 9mm. Berry's? Anyone use plated with success?
  17. I throw out russian brass just because I have heard bad things about it. May not all be true but better safe than sorry. I do know its harder than hammered hell from what I have seen.
  18. I ordered some 124 9mm and their website states they are 18 WEEKS out. I may have enough to make it. Maybe.
  19. Well Im back in line. I ordered some Precision Delta 9mm 147 bullets. 18 weeks. I THINK I have enough to get me thru or I may have to switch over to the 45 if I run out of the 9mm.
  20. Dont forget the WIldcat in Lafayette. USPSA, IDPA, Cowboy, Steel, ICORE, and best of all 3Gun.
  21. I got the email last year with my member # and have paid this season to register. Does that put me in the series? I also can not find my member # and forgot the user name I used to register at 3GN. I have tried several times via the support system to contact them but can NOT get a reply. I checked my spam folders as well but still no reply. If anyone from the 3GN admin read who may read these forums would be able to PM me with some info would be great. Im getting the online email mag and stuff so I know Im in the system. Do I need to re register?
  22. I have gotten the stuff I had ordered and a friend is still waiting on a Dillon swage. I dont have anything else ordered except a holster from Alabama Holster for my XDs thats been on bo for 12 weeks. THAT was supposed to ship 2 weeks ago. Im about ready to look for alternatives.
  23. I got an email about the 3GN club series. Is that what my entry fee covered or is that additional? Also if I read it right all 3 clubs in our series are eligible for the versamax giveaway? I also forgot to ask if we will still be using the PC correct targets or USPSA targets??
  24. Playing the same waiting game. I couldnt wait and boght a 45. Im glad I did. Its not something I want to shoot all day with GoldDots but with my reloads its not bad. However it IS a carry gun so its always got the GoldDots in it.
  25. Cool. Im going to go with a 4' T8 4 bulb light. I will hardwire it to a existing wall switch for the closet where I keep other reloading supplies. Im more worried about how much heat and I know that floods do put out more heat. Looks like it will be this one. http://www.lowes.com/pd_335718-1390-GL4548-4T8-BA_4294798239__?productId=3355630&Ns=p_product_avg_rating|1&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNs%3Dp_product_avg_rating%7C1&facetInfo=
