The rough magical weight in a blowback PCC for the combined weight of the bolt and buffer is 20oz's. A light buffer requires a heavier bolt. Balanced with the right spring weight and length. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Running the same 135g bullet requires 3.3g of e3 in my SP-01 to make a 130PF Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I run 135g xTreme RN with 2.7g of e3 with avg of 965 FPS - 130PF Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Thanks!

I've been using a UTG Alpha Battle Carrier Sling Pack - 34". I can put the PCC inside with my magazine bag (6 mags loaded) and belt with pouches. Outside pockets fit tools, parts, small ammo box (225 rnds). I also have a scabbard to take the rifle to the line. I roll it in a cart along with h2o and such. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I've found a scabbard to work. Easy in and easy out. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Ben Stoeger's books are good for PCC as well. His latest one is an improvement of the last few and one I would recommend. https://www.amazon.com/Skills-Drills-Reloaded-Ben-Stoeger/dp/1985644657/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1531505267&sr=1-5&refinements=p_27%3ABen+Stoeger There are multiple sets of drills to focus on fundamentals through small stage movement. The PAR times he has are goals for Production. Practicing with PCC you will be establishing lower times for the same drills. You can experiment with starting positions you might encounter during a match as well. I have found that the fundamental drills allow you to focus on transitions which for me is an area of improvement.

For me there is a clear advantage running a green dot over the red. I shoot pistol and pcc with both eyes open and a target focus. Green easily appears in my overall picture better than red. I know part of it has to do where green light is positioned in the visible spectrum. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I target a 130K PF. You also need to look at the SD of the load to ensure you don't have a significant portion of your distribution falling under minor PF. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

You can download the classifier stages and WSBs from the USPSA website if you wish Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I run a 11# in my TS with either 180g or 200g Bayou's at Major PF. I perceive that the sights get back on target quicker than with a higher # spring. I felt as though the higher # springs forced the nose of the slide to dip before resettling as well.

My general observations on this topic is that over the course of PCC being a division in USPSA: 1. The rules have evolved about handling (case, no-case, slung, cart...) 2. The rules have evolved about written stage briefs (starting positions...) 3. That the attitude of Match Directors, RM's, CRO's, RO's and shooters on the division and the folks who participate has ranged from embracing to being dismissive Given the above it is not surprising that we are struggling still with the rules-of-engagement for the division. I expect stability will arrive in the not too distant future and many of these differences in perception and interpretation will subside.

I bought my Walker Silencer ear buds for under $150 on sale. I've been happy with them. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Certain combinations of bolt, buffer and spring with a given load can cause what you are seeing. If the rearward movement of the bolt is not far enough extraction isn't complete before the bolt starts moving forward. You'll need to find your right combination for balancing smooth feeding while minimizing dot movement. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I believe the advise in the comments above is on the mark. If you were having troubles with feeding or ejection then I believe you might look at experimenting with spring-buffer combinations. A lot of fire control setup for AR's (223/5.56) may not be dimensionally compatible with a AR-9 bolt so, you search till you find the one that other's recommend for your combination of components and give it a try!

Checked them. They're back ordered currently. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I have short fingers so it fits great compared to the Chechmate version I had previously Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

A picture of the TS with the Nitro Fin. I've shot several matches with it. I eliminated the ability to lock the slide back Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

The Walkers use hearing aid batteries and yes they will last an entire 1-day match

Walker Silencer ear plugs have work like ed well for me. I've seen them for as low as $140 routinely. Comfortable, all-day wear. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Same one I use Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I use a wagon for all my matches so, a scabbard works well for me. I have another large case for transport but it's way too big for match use. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Good advise to buy agew of each brand to try to see what works in a particular PCC. I would add the Magpul magazines to the list to try, especially for classifiers. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
