When I started with open gun, I went to a 9major in 2001
even before 9major became popular, everyone said to me
that its not soft as 38super, few years later, everyone
started shooting it and found a way of makin it work.
I switched over to 38 super but after about 3 local
matches, I went back to 9mm coz of PIA of picking
up brass. At the time, my shooting skils couldnt tell
the difference from both anyways. Now, that my skills are
highly developed(master class) I still shoot 9major.
I buy 9mm brass for 15k for about 500.oo compare to
5000 pcs of 38 super and recycling the brass every 6months and buying
more to keep my brass at 5000pcs for $500.00
really big difference in amount of brass.
