Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. Hi Dave,

     

    A few years ago, I bought 2000 Starline .38 Short Colt for use in my S&W M627 for ICORE/USPSA/steel/etc.  You fixed me up with 25 moon clips.  All was right with the world.  And I've only lost four clips (due to people stepping on them.)   

     

    Recently I purchased 2000 more pieces of Starline brass and loaded some.  Just this morning, at our Steel Challenge match I found out that many (maybe half) of the new Starline brass will NOT load in the moon clips.  Apparently Starline's tolerances have changed somewhat?  

     

    At any rate, what do I do now?  Get new clips?  

  2. In the very early days of Hearthco Moonclips, the most consistent brass to use was Remington. The concept of specific clip and brass combinations was not popular at that time as many competitors wanted the "one clip fits all" clip. Then a handful of Ca. shooters and my Very good friend, Vic Pickett, discovered that the edm clips were very consistent and matched up well with the Rem brass. Eventually, shooters chose .Star-line as it was also very consistent and readily available. The Star-line brass had a smaller groove diameter so it required its own clip geometry.
  3. I know the moderators shut this discussion down, but the most important factor to remember is that primers, not full seated, are the biggest drawback to revo trigger pulls below 5 lbs. No matter what kind of system or science you apply, the second you promise a trigger pull of XXwhatever, you will have complaints that "It just dont work in my gun!" Randy Lee has a gun that shoots at sub 4LB, and I can promise you that he is the most critical man on the planet in his reloading.
  4. I use Billy Bullets 170 grain RN with long colt case and bout 3 grains clays.
  5. Have you seen hillary in a pantsuit?
  6. He'll be ready for a paper route pretty soon. My clips aint cheap.
  7. Thanks for all of the kind words guys! Dave
