    Ford Taurus SHO. 365hp of twin turbo glory. I have the Explorer Sport and love it.

    Rugged part. You'll love it. What's better/different about the Nordic?

    Welcome to the club - you'll love it. Mine just finished up its first brutal waterfowl season, and the switch back to competition mode was as simple as cranking the RCI tube back in (I actually did that in time for Arkansas Snow conservation season). I feel pretty unnatural holding anything else after hunting/shooting pretty much nothing but an 870 my entire life.

    I'm interested. What are you planning for the bolt release?
  5. hpnewby
    I bought my Vinci for the intended purpose of dual use. I can change from the OEM two-shell tube to the RCI 10-shell tube in about 30 seconds. No plugs to worry about. I just finished opening week of duck season in south Louisiana as a very satisfied customer, and I have a multigun tonight.

    Thread drift, anybody? How does the little trick part work? What part of the stroke is the pocket actually swaged?

    "Always learn to load on a single stage before you go to progressive." Yeah, right.

    I really need to buy a chrono. I only had one load with me and the guy I was with just had enough to test what he was doing. I have some easy access H335. When I have time (ha ha, duck season starts Saturday) I'll make some of those and a few 27.5gr CFE rounds to try. Who knows, I may finally spring for a $115 chrony.

    Not a big difference, but it's an 18".

    Still haven't bought a chronograph, but a friendly range member let me shoot over his today. I'm at 27.0gr and shot 2860fps, SD 24fps in 5 shots. WAAAAAYYYYY slow, right? Hodgdon website show starting loads around 25-26gr for 55gr running 3100fps. Anyone got some chrono data with CFE?

    It could be my imagination, but letting cases go to .750-55 improved accuracy over .730ish. I was after the same thing - more loads per trim. What I found to be better than that was reducing FL sizing as much as MY chamber would allow to reduce growth after each load cycle. I can't even measure the difference between length in some cases after they've been shot and sized multiple times. Also extends the life if brass by preventing work hardening.

    I shoot XDm over Glock because it fits my hand better. I love it and have never had a problem, but the aftermarket leaves some to be desired vs the Austrian.

    For me, range brass grows 0.003-.005" in a FL sizer. I trim everything back to 1.750" max and load away.

    27.0gr CFE223 55gr v-max 2.255"

    Almost exactly what I did. 'Cept I used what I had laying around - empty primer box and scotch tape for labeling ammo boxes.
