I wet tumbled some 9mm and thought I had thrown out the steel cases. They all looked like brass to me. After laying them out in the sun to dry an hour later I saw some rusting cases. Ran a magnet over the drying cases and found about 60 that were rusting, head stamp Sig. They must use a copper/brass wash or something, if they were plated don’t think tumbling would remove plating.

Best reloading bullets for 9 Major Open Gun
beechnutbob replied to Murzikrv's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
Rocky Mountain Reloading. RMR. In stock. Also Montana Gold. Forget all the major brand names as they are way over priced -
I had Shot Coach but it quit working and is no longer available, then I found a app called Clip Shot which was similar to Shot Coach but that also is now not downloading to my iPad, says it is no long available on the App Store. Does anyone know of an app the will work similar to Shot Coach.

Federal SPP eroded breach face in 400 rounds. Those are to soft.

Fords hard chrome is done in house. I had them chrome guns that I prepared for plating. Dropped them off on the first of the week and got them back before the weekend.

FYI. Watch for pitting on the breech face. Had that happen on my gun after 400 rounds with Federal SPP. I think they were to soft for that gun - bullet- powder combination

I believe the case is not well supported in the factory barrel. FYI. Try this with your legion. Push the slide Back about 1/4 hold it there and then try the trigger. Then Let it move about 1/16 forward hold there are try the trigger again. See if the striker falls. Mine does. At that point the barrel is up and the slide is touching the hood. So they will fire when the slide is not fully forward and would this condition be the issue for bulges and case separation? Just an observation. Mine blew a case, extractor gone and grip module is now missing a big piece. Pic shows ( in my opinion ) way to much of case unsupported compared to other 9mm guns I have or have had

That’s what I though was discussed. Found some CCI. Off the LGS I go. thanks

I did a search but had no luck finding info on this. Anyone use small rifle primers for open? Any issues? I know it has been discussed before

They have these at club in Florida. It depends how high u set the steel in front of the target to increase or decrease the amount of the target that shows when bobing and how much of the head shows when at rest. Then add distance and it can be a easy or difficult depending on skill level of the shooter. The steel will ring so you know if you miss low and can make up shots
-
Made up this Bobber target. Can give material list and dimensions of anyone is interested. Requires addition wood or metal stand to hold piece of plate steel to block off part of the target. If you have some weights laying around cost of the steel around 30 dollars

Mine works also but looks like it is not available now -
Told a friend about it and he tried to find it on the App Store or a google search. He could not find it and neither could I. Anyone know if it is still available.

My son started shooting this year. Which Ben Stoeger Training Book would be the most beneficial for improving skills. His accuracy is good not classified yet but would be a c level according to some we have set up and ran.

If the gun is functioning fine just remove FPS and file down the area that is causing the problem.
-
Been there done that, Gun, (right gun type wrong caliber in gun bag,) mags, (40’s and 9 look a lot alike) Ammo, (wrong power factor) but luckily not all at the same time

Just finished this gun, test firing, cloudy day never saw any flame, yellow-orange while shooting it, neither did the person using the camera. This is from the video which was done in slow-mo and the loaded into ShotCoach and the ran at 1/10 speed. Was only able to then catch it in one frame of the 1/10 speed of shot coach. Don’t think there would be a problem unless it was almost dark.
