I placed an order back on July 24 2020 and have not received any shipping information yet. It sounds like is may be a little bit longer.

I am currently running a C-more Slide Ride on my JP GMR-15. I went with this sight because I was running this optic on my Open Guns. I recently purchased a Trijicon SRO Red Dot Sight for my CZ Shadow 2 to use for Carry Optics. I like this sight so much I am going to purchase one for my JP GMR-15.

I have a Dan Wesson PM9 and the weight should not be an issue. As far as spring weight I run a 10lb ISMI spring. The only other item I added were Techwell grips and magwell. The Dan Wesson is one of my favorite handguns to shoot.

Had my Gunsmith fit a new Nowlin barrel and bushing on my STI Eagle 5.0 45 ACP Bull Barrel and it is working great.

I like to others have been using Small Rifle Primers in my 9 Major Open gun for years without any issues at all.

Since I have not been able to find any on line I stop by Bass Pro in the Memphis area and I have been able to pick up a few 100 pk Small Pistol Primers. It's just going in at the right time.

whats the barrel length ? if its a 4 I personally would go with 2400 over H110. I use 2400 in my 5" Ruger.
I havent tried it in 44 yet, but I think Be 86 would be a good powder as well for mid range loads. Burn rate is between Unique and Power pistol. Low flash, works good with coated bullets. Seems to be working well in alot of rounds for me.The Barrel lenght is 6 inch.

Thanks to everyone for the information. This is my first 44 Magnum and can't wait to get to the range and try it out.

I use H110/296 or 2400. These are good for full power loads.
Thank you very much.

This week I picked up a S&W Model 29-10 in 44 Magnum. For those who reload this caliber what powders are you using. Thanks

Thank you all for the information. I will let you know how things went. Have a great evening.

I have an STI Eagle 45 ACP Bull Barrel that I would like to change over to a Bushing Barrel. Can this be done and if so what do I need to do. Any information you have would be appreciated. Thank you.

50/50 mix of apple cider vinegar and peroxide. Let it soak about an hr. Then I just use Qtips to clean it out. All of my comps are brand new looking.
I also use this method on all of my comps. I also spray Dillon case lube on my comp before and in between each stage. I helps with the cleaning.

I just checked Powder Valley and they are showing 48 1lb jugs of VV N320 available at this moment.

You are correct on the amount of VV N320 that was available. I have several 4lb jugs, but did order two more 4lb jugs just in case there is a shortage. Grab a few primers also.

There is one 4lb jug available at Powder Valley at this moment!!

I use Techwell grips along with their magwells on my 1911's and they have worked very well for me. I like their thin grips the best.

I have a 6 MOA Cmore Slide Ride on top and I am looking at placing a 6 MOA Cmore RTS2 on the side.

I personally zero mine in at 15yds, but many of the other PCC shooters at our club zero theirs at 25 yards.

I currently own an STI Eagle 45 acp that I recently purchased, but have not shot any semi wad cutters out of this gun. Years ago I do own a Hard Chrome STI Eagle in 45 acp that I shot 200gr semi wad cutters that I purchased from Missouri Bullet Company. I do not remember having any issues with shooting these bullets out of the STI Eagle, but I do remember that they made very big holes.
