  1. Does anyone know of someone who will do the port widening on my M3000? If it wasn't the Fourth of July weekend, I'll call Tom at Moa Precision and ask him. I don't feel comfortable doing it myself. The other upgrades I ordered from Moa don't involve grinding and filing the port.
  2. If you have a new model M&P, you don't have to modify the candy Cain. It will drop in. When I called Apex, they told me I could keep my Apex competition trigger spring. I also had the competition spring in my sear. Call Apex they will tell you what to do.
  3. My FSS trigger is 2 1/2 pull. It doesn't make me faster. It just gives me more control over my shots. Meaning less pull for me equals a greater chance the gun will stay on target and less jerk in the trigger. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
  4. Is time that important to you? Let me start by saying I had a loadmaster for all of one week. Nothing but primer issues. I got frustrated and drank the blue cool aid. I've never looked back! I have a xl650 and load 9mm and 223 on it now. The changeover with a changeover kit from 9mm to 223 takes me about 2 minutes as they both take small primers. I prep all my rifle brass on a Frankfort prep station first. I also still have my little Turret press that I reload 45acp, 243 win & 308 win on.
  5. I have a Pro that I installed the flat faced FSS in. I agree that it took me all of 5 minutes to get used to the lack of pretravel through dry fire. As far as the springs go, when I called Apex, they told me that I could keep the competition trigger return spring and striker spring in the gun. I love the 2.5lb trigger pull and 1/8" reset. I just wish the reset was a little more aggressive like my Glocks but I'm not complaining. Apex states that the trigger is as close to a 1911 as you can get. Everyone who tries my trigger says WOW! that's nice.
  6. Do you know about Gunbot.net? Its updated regularly and I've used it to help me buy 12lbs of Titegroup and 8 lbs of H4895, and 5k pistol primers. Here's a link (sort by age) Http://WWW.Gunbot.net
  7. I have a 650XL I load 223 and 9mm on it. I also load 45acp and 308win on a Lee Turret press. Its not about the quantity but about the quality. Keep the SDB!
  8. I wear it in the front and shoot production
  9. The machine is the extension of the person using it. You get out what you put in! My 650 does exactly what I want it to do, make quality ammo for my guns.
  10. Isn't that why we all buy a Dillon? Customer service is second to none!
  11. +1 on the pancake compressor. It works great, its Small and it stores nicely under my bench.
  12. I agree. Crimp should just remove the flair from the case.
  13. +1 on the dillon press. If you're only going to load 9mm then the dillon square deal is the way to go. If you plan on loading more, look at the 550 and the 650. My XL650 was the best investment I made, but I reload 9mm, 45acp, 223/556 and 308.
  14. I saw this video on two other social media sources. When I have a stage that has barriers, I always walk out to the furthest point down range and walk the stage backwards and check the entire stage before going hot. My questions is... Who is taping because you can see the guy on the right side of the camera. Why didn't they scream STOP before the string started?

    Exactly what jhr1986 said
  16. If you notice the new rules referencing stage descriptions the wording changed also. Stages are now either limited or unlimited not Vickers or limited Vickers. Round dumping has been going on for years in IDPA. After all, at the end of the day, IDPA is just a game. All games have written rules, interpretation of those rules are different among each Safety Officer.

    DQ?

    At our club, we discuss this in our initial safety briefing and equipment check. DQ IS DEFINITELY WARRANTED.
  18. Did magpul come out with their Glocks mags yet?
  19. I would agree with the others in saying it's your sizing die. I also use everglades 55gr v2 in my AR. Great ammo at a good price.
  20. 3.1gr Titegroup behind a 147 gr Bayou at 1.130 OAL. GREAT LOAD!!!!

    DQ?

    DQ faster than you can say DQ.
  22. Same here. Although I usually come home with more brass than I left the house with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Exactly
  23. Federal still makes small primer 45acp
