  1. I also was a victim of stage 10. The hug from Michele helped take the pain away somewhat. It was a great stage and I hope I get to try it again someday.
  2. Thanks for a great match. The staff and ROs could not have been better. Hope to see you all at the MISSISSIPPI CLASSIC this spring.
  3. New to open gun reloading. STI Trubor in Cameron 5 inch. I have MG124JHP, vv3n38 @ 10.0gr. 1.250 COL. Dot is fairly still but power factor is 177 to 178. What is considered to high a power factor for reliability? Thanks. Searched but could not find my answer.
  4. Replaced the cotter pin with a single strain of wire. Works better.
  5. Racket Ball glove on weak hand.
  6. Try the green. I think it will work better for you especially with the clay colored berms at your range. Gale
  7. I load 180gr MG jhp Col 1.178 with 5.2 gr VVn320 fo 169/170 PF . Schuemann barrel. It is a handful at 5.3 gr. Cameron Limited.
  8. Brandon, The first beer next weekend is on me. See you then.
  9. I will not drive 200 +/-extra miles to another event to avoid the Gator due to $40.00 increase in match fee. From central Mississippi the Gator is the closest big match other than the world famous Mississippi Classic. I also hate the price increase but is cheaper than a extra tank of gas to get to a distant match. I am part of the "Mississippi crew" but was not polled in this matter. Next week: The Great Mississippi Classic. Hope to see y'all there.
  10. Walter, Before you reassemble the powder bar, polish it and touching surfaces . Just did mine this week with Flitz and a dremel . You will not believe how smooth and consistent it is. Gale
  11. It really seemed like a natural thing. I have small hands and mag releases have always been a problem for me.
  12. Walter, I have had every oversized mag button there is for my 1911 and 2011 STI. Just went to the Mitchell right side mag release on my STI and love it. Look into it. 7 weeks til the Mississippi Classic. See you then. Gale
  13. Brandon, What glove are you wearing and is only on the left hand ? Gale
  14. Just got mine today. Loaded 100 quick rounds and not the first case feed problem. Thanks Skip.
  15. I have not set off a primer [ yet ] but I have more trouble with Speer brass than any other.
  16. I was having the same problem after decreasing the bell on my cases. I believe I had so little bell that the case was trying to collapse if the bullet was slightly of center. Maybe, maybe not.
  17. I moved my finger to the point that I make contact with the trigger just behind the center of the finger nail. You must pull straight back.
  18. Got my Cameron yesterday with my custom serial number. Worth the wait.
