  1. I can tell you that an 18" rifle vs. 16" interm. gas "feels" softer to shoot. The recoil to me on an 18" seems to be a"longer" push and not as short/snappy as 16". Now saying all this, a 223 has very little recoil anyway so its kinda subjective. I have a few sbr's and they is noticeable more snap to them but they are 10-12" also.
  2. I use the Nitro Fin by shooting sports innovation. The position of them are perfect for me.
  3. September 23-26, 2021 Microtech Pro-Am 3 Gun Championship at the Clinton House.
  4. I like Power pistol, AA7 and HS-6. AA7 to me meters as good as anything on the market. Also, I use it for 38 super.
  5. If your serious about buying a builders kit..... I may know someone. Let me know.
  6. If it comes from Dissident, count on it running 100% with proper ammo. The VR80's I've seen are about 85% most of the time. There are a few that run close to 95%+ the time but they are few.
  7. They test 1200fps before shipping out. Anything less I don't think they would recommend. Typically, most everyone uses 1250's. With the great comp on them you dont have to shoot low recoil. My go to load is AA 1300fps.
  8. Call Matt Lucroy at Ammobrassllc.

    Es/sd

    FWIW-Below are one of my sets of results for my long range load. I usually test 5 sets of 5 (not sure why 4 here) and this is the avg. of the sets. This 24.0gr of 335 with a Hornady 75 BTHP. The Hornady Black, which is an accurate round in my rifles, had a SD of around 23. I'm sure my 55gr burner rounds have a higher SD as I pump them out at a much quicker rate. Bullet Weight(gr): 75.00 Temp: 49 °F BP: 1019.46 inHg Altitude: 500.00 # FPS FT-LBS PF 4 2734 1245.01 205.05 3 2738 1248.66 205.35 2 2728 1239.55 204.60 1 2754 1263.29 206.55 Average: 2738.5 FPS SD: 11.1 FPS Min: 2728 FPS Max: 2754 FPS Spread: 26 FPS Shot/sec: 0.4 True MV: 2741 FPS Group Size (in): 0.00
  10. If you decide to go 2011, look at Tommy Guns USA. Jeff does an amazing job on his builds. He has touched in some way most all of my 1911 and 2011's. The llast one he built for me was a dedicated 3-gun 9mm shorty.

  12. Check out ammobrass.com. I buy all my processed brass from him and almost never have any to kick out.
  13. My cases from PD took almost 3 weeks. Not complaining though
  14. I have had a 550, 650 and a LNL. I prefer the LNL to both Dillons I've had, I am one of the few that finds the Hornady smoother and easier to set up. The switch over between calibers is just as easy on the LNL as it was on the 650. The primer system on the LNL is way better than the 650 as far as I'm concerned. Much simpler design and no wasted primers. The powder drop seem to be about the same on both as far as consistency. Maybe a slight edge to the LNL. I have never used the Dillon warranty but you cant beat it if needed.
  15. My .02 cents- I am an open 3 gun shooter. I have use vortex and C-more RTS. Vortex- rifle and shotgun. I really like them both but had a couple of issues with Vortex's but like the warranty says, for life. They fixed the problems and returned to me the same week. Hard to beat the customer service at Vortex. My 9 open I use the RTS and have not had any issues at all, even throwing in dump bucket pretty harshly, but only have about 5-6k rounds on it. My 38 super I use the original C-more. My opinion this is the best optic made for a handgun, you cant get a better field of view than the big circle. If I could tune a 9 open gun for a top mount C-more to be 100% reliable I would use nothing but C-mores.
  16. I grab just below the belt for a 20 or 12 rounders. I have the clip located on the mag about 1/3 from bottom so at least I have over half of mag below bottom of hand when inserting. Not a big deal on the 12 but on the 20's it helps with balance.
  17. I shoot right handed. If I carry on my left side I carry mags with brass front. I want to grab mag with left hand, pull straight up and turn left hand fingers rear to fingers front and slam mag in place.
  18. I will throw out a vote to try Power Pistol. I have used in 9 major and minor and it produces a lot of gas. If you shoot a lot indoors you will want to double plug ears!
  19. I use Power Pistol for 9 minor -hot (145-150 pf) and 9 major. I really like it. Produces a lot of gas.
  20. I use the JP recoil eliminator in open 3 gun. I works very good.
  21. I use a custom made kydex on an ELS on back of belt. Usually place a full 12 of bird in that mag and use dissident hooks on 10,12 or 20's off each side or front of belt. The hanging hooks seem to be the fastest to on reloads. The 12 on back is usually reserved for emergencies or oops.
