Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Been reading this thread because I bought a X5 Legion last month and had two case ruptures, extractor disappearance in slightly less than 200 rounds. Yes they were reloads, 4.5 grains of Titegroup with the 115 Hornady HAPs which Hodgden lists as the starting load. Son bought one also and had a rupture and blown extractor in about 200 rounds of the same ammo. Lots of case exposed by the breach like some of the pics on here. Haven’t made it all the way through a match yet
  2. I use the Dillon case lube on an open class 38 Super and it works, I spray mine before every match (192 rounds in a match)
  3. I got the adjustable comb when I bought my 725 but have never had to adjust it from all the way down. I bought a used 425 a with the adjustable comb and had to raise it one spacer. I bought a new BT 99 and had a Graco butpad system and the adjustable comb added aftermarket and it also need one spacer. I figured different guns may need different systems so I get the adjustable just in case I need it, if I don't well ok.
  4. Ron Power built a model 66 for me as the ultimate duty gun (and it was )and I have shot a couple of his PPC revolvers that I thought were the cats meow. Then I actually bought one of Warren Moore's 686 PPC revolvers and shot PPC with it and I think they are every bit as good as the Powers revolvers. Mine was absolutely a masterpiece. After I quit shooting PPC I sold it to another PPC shooter so it would continue tearing up the PPC course (I even shot the Bianchi Cup course with it some and it was awesome there too!)
  5. I had decent luck using Silhouette with 125 grain Extreme plated
  6. Is it possible to change a 6 shot S&W 617 to a 10 shot by swapping the cylinder (if I could find a 10 shot cylinder)?
  7. Warren made one for my MkIII that just slides on the barrel and has a set screw. If I can figure out how to post a pic I will try if you want.(Wish I had seen this post earlier I could have brought it and let you look at it at the Show Me cup)
  8. I have always used Simichrome polish, just a dab of that and a cloth cleans them right up.
  9. Mine do not always drop out and I have to reach up inside the magwell and fish them out. Since I shoot Action Pistol it's not that big of a deal but I used to see weighted baseplates and have not seen them lately. I could just load the mags with extra rounds to add weight but knowing me I would shoot too many times (but only in big matches, usually smooth as silk in practice)
  10. Does anyone know who makes weighted mag baseplates for a 38 super (Bianchi Cup Open Class pistol). All I can find are for Glock or STI 2011's. Mine is a single stack.

    New to Clays

    I shoot a 725 sporting clays (32") for sporting clays and I am not all that muscular. Love it and would not hesitate to take it bird hunting. I have the adjustable comb but have not had to adjust it from the factory setting as I am shooting well with it, but intend to hit the pattern board and tweek it if need be. The stock dimensions are different on the field guns and I have a longer length of pull so I like the sporting clays model. Have not tried it for trap yat but intend to, I have a dedicated trap gun I shoot for that game. The 725 seems to shoot flatter than my BT99 trap gun

    Best choke

    I use an Improved Modified most of the time. Tried modified for a while but I seem to do better with an improved modified. If the handicap is 23 yds or further I switch to full, but that doesn't happen often on my team
  13. Warren, could you look at it if I brought it to you Monday?My gun has the fluted barrel if that complicates things
  14. Surgi, missed you at the Show Me Cup. I have not put a mover base on mine yet but I probably should huh? What kind of holster does he use that accomodates the wings? I would like to see the mover base/wings if you can post a pic
  15. Anyone know if anyone makes these? I have seen the wings on 1911 rimfires but I have a Mark III 22/45
