Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Been shooting the MG-115's for about a year in my stock Grandmaster. Find them flatter and slightly more accurate than the MG-124's I was using(1.5 vs 2.0 inches @ 25 yds). PF=170 with the following load : 8.7 gr True Blue 1.170 OAL Range brass Fed SPP I also believe the increased slide velocity(in recoil) has cured my 1/100 failure to eject problem. ( I am running a 7 lb recoil/15 lb main springs in a 12.6 oz. slide ) Ray
  2. Ooops ...sent letter last week.
  3. Sent MG a letter with needs and CC info thru USPS. Can't believe they're shipping 115 JHP today. Ray

    115JHP

    I'm running 115 gr MG JHP at 1.167OAL over 8.7 gr of True Blue. Expect to chrono at 1550 FPS extrapolating from 8.1gr /115 ( 1426 actual) and 124 gr data. Have been shooting this for 2 months now. Comp likes extra gas and load runs cleaner than before. Will give you some rounds to test if you want. Ray
  5. As I remember my statistics .... + or - 1 SD = 67% + or - 2 SD = 95% + or - 3 SD = 99.5% So in order to be 99.5% sure you pass the chrono stage you need a median fps of 1056 (1008 + 3 x the SD of 16). Bump up the charge for the FL Open and try to lower your SD in the future. Although, I agree 16 ain't bad. Ray
  6. Parralax.... Make sure you have the powder hopper on the right way.....with the hopper opening directly over the charge bar opening. I have the same setup and its always right on. Ray
  7. Had the same trouble with my Grandmaster. Went to Aftec and sideways mount( Cheely or Quinn 2 ). Problem gone. Clean the Extractor tunnel and Aftec frequently, certainly before every match. Ray
  8. Tactical Solutions barrel will produce 3/4 " groups at 25 yds from a Ransom Rest. Using relatively cheap ammo (CCI) and its a bolt on , no FFL part. Have test data to prove it. Ray
  9. I know several folks that run the Ultradot Pan AV (~$240) on Rugers for steel. You have a choice of reticles and the frame that holds the glass is very thin, that allows good visibility on 3 sides. Ray
  10. Oak Hill Enterprises (www.oakhillenterprises.com) is offering subject gun (this AM) for $2,299.00 vs normally advertised price of $3,299 and MSRP of $3,650.00. I have one already or I would pursue myself. Ray
  11. I have not been able to get the OAL variation below +/-.005" on my Lee Loadmaster. I have a Redding Competition seating die and have added "C" clamps to the toolhead to prevent verticle movement. Even when I segregate the ammo produced from each shellplate hole I still get variations of +/- .004". Although this drives me bats, I calculate a difference of .010" OAL only makes a ~1.3% difference in case volume. So, forgeddabouit ... Ray
  12. The DA RM block fit my 226 X 5 with a little coaxing from a file. Ray

    170mm mag

    A picture or 2 would be a real help. Ray
  14. I'm using the MG 124 JHP's over 8.0 gr of True Blue at 1.170 OAL with Fed SPP. Gives me a chrono of 1380-1400 FPS out of my TruBore Grandmaster. I have tested Sil but found it dirtier. Also found that the JHP's grouped much tighter (2 vs 4" @ 25 yds)than MG's 124 CMJ's. True Blue is clean and meters very well and I'm sticking with it.
