Thanks again for your first-hand feedback. It's much appreciated...

Hello; Does anyone here have experience with the American SpeedLoaders, Ludex or MakerShot loaders for Kel-Tec CP33? Any recommendations? The American SpeedLoaders and Ludex designs seem quite similar. The MakerShot loader seems far similar. Thanks.

Thanks! Getting FIRST HAND feedback from a CP33 owner who actually shoots Steel Challenge is just awesome!

What does any of that have to do with either the KelTec CP33, or the KelTec PLR22?

Thanks for your input. Rimfire Challenge limits to 11 rounds. I routinely shoot firearms holding 12 and 15 rounds respectively. I can't remember the last time I even came close to shooting more than 11. I'm curious. Do they mags appear to be of high quality? Thanks!

First hand feedback. Particularly on the Hogie Handall... Thank you!

What do your competitors think of it? Does it point well? Is it fairly heavy when fully loaded? Thank you again.

Not in my experience. In years of shooting action rimfire with a Remington 572 pump (loaded to 15 rounds to maintain optimum rifle balance), I have never "over-shot" a stage. "Counting" one's shots becomes second nature/subconscious, for more than one reason, namely to ensure one always has a round to hit the stop plate and not incur a +30.

Thanks for the feedback. That's what I was hoping to see. Do you shoot Open or Limited? The CP33's 9" sight radius is attractive, particularly for those shooting in Limited. Thanks again.

Another rude POS.

Nearly as bad. Either way you're a rude/envious individual.

In case anyone is interested in the CP33 speed loader: https://www.keltecweapons.com/product/cp-33-speedloader/

Writes the individual who lives in, excuse me, Jackson, MS. smh.

"The CP33 is fine for competition in Steel Challenge or Rimfire Challenge. But you have to load the mags properly..." That's exatly what I have been reading. I understand one company makes a loader, that makes the process simple.

Actually, around here the pistol shooters are allow to "barney" a round. I share you concerns about reliability, given its paramount importance. But the more I read, the more I understand that the CP33 flat-out RUNS. The thing that really attracts me is the CP33's sight radius is 9 INCHES! That's very attractive for a limited shooter. Anyway, thanks for your response.

Does anyone else here shoot Rimfire Challenge? (Much like Steel Challenge using a .22) I was thinking about trying a semi-auto pistol in addition to my S&W 617 revo. I'm very intrigued by the KelTec CP33 and possibly even the PLR22. Any experiences, thoughts? Both have long sight radii which I appreciate as I shoot "limited." The PLR22 intrigues me as far as the necessary grip, although I'm not sure it can be moved as fast as a traditional pistol? Any experiences, thoughts? Thank you.

Yeah, I hear you! I know a guy that went to one of those custom on-line custom jersey companies and had a terrifically sarcastic jersey made up. Holland & Holland, Purdey, Korth and Kynoch are his sponsors, along with others. Most don't give it a second thought. About 1 in 10 or so will stop and study it and begin asking about it.

Thanks for your support. Once the trolls left, I ended-up getting some really good input. Thanks again.

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense!!

It's interesting how Salomon shoes have taken off. Here too. Not sure why? Comfort? Fit? Traction? Cool/fitting-in factor? I never really seem to get a straight answer. Certainly not price or durability based on my own experience. For the most part, I prefer New Balance.

The only limitation at my club on such matters is that you shoot the fastest firearm first. Say you signed-up for Open and Single-Stack. You have to shoot Open first. The reason is that too many very fast, Open shooters were using other classes to warm-up on each stage.

Thank you!

Thanks for the feedback. I can imagine the SLO/Morro Bay fog must feel great to a valleyite during the summer...

"Liquid chalk?" Please 'splain. Thanks!
