  1. Great powder but case filling.. just was very scarce at the time. Didnt like how it would disappear like the other VHitavouri powders.
  2. I think I'm going to stay with your first 2 picks. Longshot will be my backup powder. Yes AA#7 has alot of greyish smoke out of my comp and popple holes. But its the first powder that I actually feel the gas on my face when shooting it. Its the flattest load Ive messed with to date. This is me messing with HS6, autocomp, 3N38, true blue, Silhouette, LongShot and now AA#7.
  3. Yeah it makes a ton of gas. Isnt that what you want to work the comp. The more the gas the better ??? Ive used AA#7 ever since the beginning of this year and with popple holes for the past couple months ... it has really flatten and out both my main gun and back up. Main gun is nose heavy and my back up is alot more balance. But I prefer my main gun because its alot more flatter with AA#7 and softer.
  4. The AA#7 is dirty with popple holes ... I think with an island barrel itll be cleaner.
  5. I run 3.6grs of RamShot competition out of 5" LO or 3grs of Alliant E3 bot will land you in 130 to 133pf Both 1.121" oal
  6. Sport pistol is the rave for pcc shooters with extreme or Everglades bullets around my neck of the woods. I prefer Ramshot competition or Alliant E3 myself
  7. One of my favorite powders. Its my back up powder if I cant get my hands on AA#7 but I load 7.6grs of longshot ( versus 10grs of #AA7) 1.165" behind a 124gr bullet for 9mm major. I prefer AA#7 because it mak was alot more gas with 2 ( 3/16") popple holes its flat. Longshot is LOUD and decently flat with out the popple holes. LongShot has been sitting for 6months since AA#7 has been plentiful in stock.
  8. Since this powder has been on the shelves and plentiful in stock. I tried this and found 10grs for 9mm major with 124jhp Precision Delta V2. Makes 175pf in my back up gun with a KKM 16" twist barrel with 2 ( 3/16" ) popple holes and 173pf in my main gun with a SV 24" twist barrel without no popple holes. The one with popple holes is very very flat with a 7lb stabdard recoil spring. Found it to be very dirty with the 2 popple holes. And alot cleaner in the one without popple holes. Found a ton of corn flakes in the one with 2 popple holes. I think the solution is to maybe use a island barrel instead of having normal barrel with popple holes. I'll hopefully have my 3rd open gun to report if its dirty with the island barrel. when its done getting built by 1911 Speed Shop in Riverside sometime next year.
  9. Not any more ... learnt my lesson I have pitting in my breech face
  10. So there no difference between forward and rear in dot movement or dot tracking ???
  11. Carry & Limited Optic competitors. Is red dot placement on the slide important ??? Ive seen sights placed; as close to the ejection port as possible and I've seen then set back all the way to rear of the slide. Where do you have yours and why ??? Hows the dot tracking ???
  12. you like the green dot ... how do you deal with the dot being washed out in grass/ green back stops ???
  13. Im looking forward to the release date. As Im more of a fan of the lunch box / square window red dots.
  14. anyone interested in this new red dot ??? I'm liking the 2moa dot in a 8moa circle
  15. anyone found the solution to the mbx problems ??? My sons pcc has been nothing but problems with them
  16. Ive been lucky with BNB 124gr 1.120oal and 3.4grs of E3 w/ Remington SRP about 145pf BNB 135gr 1.120oal and 3grs of E3 w/ Remington SRP about 143pf ( this one is super soft and accurate... dot hardly moves ) this is out of a 14.5" JP stainless steel barrel
  17. Now do use the same of big matches??? And is there a ton of smoke??? I'm thinking of using 124gr or 135gr BNB hytek coated bullets ...
  18. We've all have mess up ... rounds with no primer or bullets upside down, or loaded a case thats cracked... Or pulled bullets from rounds we've picked up at the range. I know I can reused the primer and some of the brass ... but what do we do with the used powder ??? I have a little container of mixed powder ... What do you guys do or what can we use the mixed powder for ... Ive used the mixed powder to start little fire camp fire... what else can it be used for ???
  19. Ive used titegroup, n320, ramshot comp, solo1000, hp38 and wst ... out of all of them N320 was my favorite for a while but was expensive and disappeared on the selves. And found out the Ramshot Comp and E3 is alot cheaper and softer... 9mm 135gr 3.5grs of N320 vs 3.3grs of Ramshot Comp vs 3.2grs of E3 ... E3 is the softest out of all of them and is very accurate but seems to like being alittle compressed because the diviation tightens up as you do ... so morale of the story is; get what ever powder your wallet can afford to maintain... hehehehehe I like E3 cheap and soft and accurate ps. I used a bunch of N320, Ramshot Comp, WST and still have about 40lbs of E3
  20. Any one have experience with these hytek or polymer coated bullets and ran them thru your open ??? I recently started loading BNB Casting bullets for my glock 26 and my production pistol. And noticed these barely show any smoke... Is it even possible to use these thru an open gun ???
  21. heres my addition. mouse farts 200gr Bear Creek 1.165 oal Remington/Winchester/CCi SRP 2.8gr of N320 650fps 130pf make sure you run super light recoil spring
  22. its what Ive been getting... thank you
  23. Thats actual diameter after the crimping station. I use a LEE FCD and Ive always used 0.371 - 0.372 as my crimp. Tried a looser crimp before but it didnt have good results.
