    You said you're shooting Montana golds. Any chance you don't flare case enough when loading? Maybe you are shaving the bullet? Could be from the bullet and not the brass?

     nope; I need to bell it enough to make it so the bullet doesnt fall out ( after the bullet feeding station ) when I rotate the shell plate on my 1050.

    I can't tell where you're describing the brass specs are. On the gun after firing? You sure it's brass and not powder? Did you notice it after letting the gun sit for a little while? I noticed some flakes that looked golden in my gun and figured it was Unburnt powder that changed color somehow. 

    maybe thats it ... but its definitely inside the slide by the chamber area. It looks golden soo it might be unburnt powder

  3. Ok let me start with my specs :

    - 124gr CMJ Montana Gold

    - 8grs of Silhouette

    - Remington 6.5 SRP

    - 1.175 oal

    - 0.371 crimp

    -mixed brass

    - 1420fps ( because its flatter up here and softens up considerably and no pressure signs at all ) This is out of 5.4" SV Infinity Barrel and 1453fps out of a KKM barrel.

    - less than 1" groups at 25yrds with the SV but 1.25" out of the KKM ...

     

    All loaded on a 1050 ... I get a little bit of specks of brass on the slide right where the chamber is ... Is this normal ???

    Keep reading!  And please note that the bluish tint on the old RTS2 was only on the first run and was removed a long time ago.  And the v4 has been quite reliable.  (Ask Chis Tilley, who won CO with a v3 last year.)  

     

    I think DP and RTS2 are both good scopes, just have some different features.

    yeah I got fed up with the constant taking off the sight and sending it to cmore for an update and get it back and re-zeroing.
    I wish I didnt have a blind spot on my 90 degree cmore ... but it has been happening to me alot lately and I need to change ... I cant stand the upright cmore because of the height difference... so the DPP might be the way to go for me ..

    "That might be a little stretch.  I have only heard of 2 total people with DPP's  issues and one of them pixilated so the dot wasn't round.  Nearly every RTS2 had multiple issues.  I now have 5 DPPs on open guns and PCC rifles and have yet to have an issue in nearly 100k rounds in one year.  I also know of at least 20 other DPPs being used without issue.  So no, they are not a dud. "

     

    Did you read the thread?

    got to the page 3 out of 12

     

    and pretty much looked at the comparison pictures...

  6. Just now, Shmella said:

    lol read the thread. There is 12 pages which pretty much answers all your questions. This thread steered me toward the DPP vs the rts2 and while I only have put 500 rds on the DPP i really like it so far. and I have the 2.5 Moa dot..

    see 500rds doesnt scream reliability for me ...

     

    I need to have someone on here whos have this for at least a year and/or 5000+rds with no issues

  7. ok I came really late to this thread ...

     

    Is the DPP good to go ??? Is it reliable... I was hoping RTS 2 was reliable but have sent it back to cmore ever soo offen to get updated was a totally bullcrap !!! I dont want the same fiasco with this one...

     

    I really want to update from a 90 degree because I have experience the dreaded blind spot too many times...

     

    And I was thinking of going with the 7.5moa Chevron versus the smaller 4moa ... What are you guys thought on that ??? Anyone running the 7.5moa chevron ???

     

    And lastly; I would prefer to run the cheely mount because I might have case ejection problems ... My ejection is irratic but I have never experience a stove pipe with the 90 degree cmore... ( ps. I'm running an aftec )

    RippSpeed, thats a cool looking blaster!!!!!

    yes ever since I cracked my 5" sight tracker I didnt want to go down that route again...

     

    So I went with this design .. I think its called the comolli system or something

     

    its a 5" barrel, 1" front sight block, Commander slide, 5" recoil system.. shoots really flat and the front sight is very trackable with my messed up eyes...

  9. Wow, what a beautiful gun. How does it transition? It seems "heavy" with the PT grip and full-profile comp. Thanks.

    It's a heavy pig but that's the reason for flatness and transitions. Transitions are not bad for me at my skill level but because of the weight I've gotten use of not over swinging the gun with the weight.

  10. Just got my gun back from Robar for their NP3 coat ... matches the Titanium color very nicely.

    but had a ton of drama and waiting for 3months & 6days... anyway heres the pics

    Finally finished with this project... I have nothing else to do but to enjoy her and shoot her ...

  11. I've search and couldnt find an answer. I received a Winchester 1200 Home Defender shotgun from my dad who passed away. And its been sitting stock. Its just has a pistol grip but I wanted to put a Magpul forend and stock on it ... Is this even a possibility ???

    this thing has alot of sentimental value to me ... so I cant just sell it or keep it in the safe untouched...
