  1. Trace: I too switched to the 124g JHPs after talking extensively with Luke at KKM; and having TSA install a KKM 1:16 match barrel. So far, the right powder/bullet combo is providing pretty impressive results. I think you'll like the switch..........
  2. Been using Federal Match SPPs for MANY years, and have never had an issue in ANY of my pistols! And your load of 3.5 N320 pushing a 147g JHP is a tack driver!
  3. @jubi351you are correct! For the small powder bar it is #13951. Luckily I dug through some boxes and found one! Thanks for your help!
  4. Anyone know if the "powder bar post" is available as a separate item; or does one have to buy the entire powder bar assembly? I've probably got one buried deep in a box somewhere, but not really sure........... I've located stock on the springs, just can't find the post! (circled in red) Thanks!
  5. I've never used WSF, so I can't comment on how well it loads or the performance it produces. However, I have used VV for MANY years and have found the recommended powders for my 9mm loads to always produce EXCELLENT results being loaded through the Dillon XL650s and the RL1100. It has also been recommend to me by very experienced loaders and manufacturers in the business to use VV N320, N330, or N340 for anything from 115g to 147g and above shooting standard velocities. If you download the VV reloading data, you can see info for several powders depending on the velocity you desire. IMO, and after using it a while instead of N320, the N330 is an awesome powder that provides excellent results and will work with about any bullet weight you can use. HTHs PS: Some good info on VV powders...............
  6. I agree with @GrumpyOne. Way too much crimp! I would toss them in the "lesson learned" bin and try again with unused bullets!
  7. FWIW: From another S1050/RL1100 user group discussing brass receiving crooked/upside down/no primers during loading:
  8. Definitely recommend the AC trigger for the P322! And the red looks GREAT! HTHs!
  9. Finally opened the box with the new Dillon RL1100 shell plate (v2?). Very easy to see the updates.
  10. Used the micrometer adjustable powder bar with a Dillon bar for a LONG time in my XL650s! Also bought one for the RL1100. https://www.uniquetek.com/product/T1231 A definite recommendation for the Dillon Powder Measure!
  11. This was the info I was sharing with you on FB. All I have at the moment with the Blue 125s...... HTHs P320Max-w-BlueBullets125gtc.pdf
  12. The "coke bottle" effect has been discussed many times............
  13. Guess it's just a matter of time on my MAX...... Thanks for your feedback!
  14. SMH........... @ddc @echotango Has Sig CS offered any insight into what might be going on?
  15. From the article I posted above. This has ALWAYS worked for any nominal sized bullet combination I have loaded in 9mm!
  16. Wow! Definitely an unusual situation......... We're all these rc springs you refer to the 6"/1911 lengths? Or the full length Sig spec?
  17. Have to agree with @HesedTechon this one. If your pic is what your finished rounds look like, then you ARE NOT removing the bell with correct taper crimp! Also, IMO, your OAL is too long. Currently using 1.108" OAL with my 1:16 twist KKM Match barrel. Follow this to fix your OAL. Applies to any 9mm pistol barrel: https://czfirearms.us/index.php?topic=103620.0 Then follow this post to fix your taper crimp: https://czfirearms.us/index.php?topic=78873.0 HTHs!
  18. @echotango @ddc This has seriously sparked my interest since I'm using the P320 MAX and probably don't have a lot of rounds on it yet. And it's been working fine with the 12# spring; even with some 136+ test loads. First thing that comes to mind is what are the torque specs for the mounting screws? IIRC, I had read that at one time Sig recommended somewhere around 30 in/lbs for the tightening torque. And IMO, that seems way too high! But I've not had to check the screws on the MAX as it came pre-mounted......... The SRO and 2 Holosuns I have all recommend 15 in/lbs..... Thanks!
  19. Wow! This in CO? What PF you running?
  20. @ddc My understanding is the PE tips are strictly for the XL750. There's also comments that they work on the 550 and 1050 machines: https://uniquetek.com/product/T1739 I've been using the SP end for quiet some time, and IIRC, it was a perfect fit and didn't alter the OAL of the primer magazine tube. Not familiar with the XL750; but it appears Dillon did make a different end and/or tube diameter for that machine. I've studied the plastic tip that comes with the 1100; and have yet to figure out the reason it's preferred over a metal tip unless the plastic will actually "flex/give" if retracting a primer that's not fully seated flush in the primer slide..........
