We see it as a FEATURE and not a fault...Smiths, Glocks,Sigs all have brass hitting the glass, have not tried a Springfield. It seems that if the optic is behind the ejection port it is going to get hit. Tom

3 Gun Match at Catawba this Saturday. Tom

Bullseye all the way. Tom

Both sets of screens should have different velocities as they are not at the same distance from the barrel. What is interesting to me is when the farthest set of screens has the highest velocities. Tom

What is the caliber and twist rate of Your KKM barrel. Tom

Indiana Gun Club in Fortville Indiana has Checkmates is stock. Tom

I have a Fastfire 111 on a Baer .45 Bullyeye gun, it has been hit many times with the witness marks on the Optics. When in doubt try video Or just watch other shooters. Tom

Glock is very aware of this issue!! They have had my Glock 40 MOS since Dec. 2016 for this issue and say a fix may be 6 months to one year away. Same issue with other model 40's they had to test. I was told it is not ammo related (power factor). I believe the real issue here is when the Optic companies start to refuse warranty claims because of this issue. Video some Glock GEN 4 guns with stock sights and watch the brass bounce off the rear sight This also seems to now be a problem with Sigs and M&P. Tom

Glock,M&P and now Sig's...brass hitting the Optic seems to be a FEATURE not a FAULT. Tom

Thoes rings are very popular with Bullseye shooters also. Tom

Send your loads here for pressure testing. http://www.hpwhite.com/ Tom

They are on the S&W site... can you just order from them? Tom

Yes.

Great plan for a backup gun. I have yet to see a Glock or M&P with an Optic that the brass does not hit the Optic. Most do it 100%. Tom

Big butt grips really shine when shooting prone. Tom

Looking for a picture of the X5 with the optic installed. Hoping that because the plate is bigger they mount the optic all the way to the rear of the slide. I know of three Glocks MOS and one M&P core that the optics have been replaced under warranty because of broken glass .M&P Core Vortex.MOV Tom

Any pictures of the X5 with opitc attached. Hope they mount it all the way to the rear to help with the brass not hitting the glass like it does on Glocks and M&P. Tom

As Kevin says there are more than four Bianchi events.!!! Tom

This is easy. Revolvers only in Production....do not need a box Tom

5.2>5.6 gr Autocomp @ 1.09 " with Zero 115 9 mm conical projectile #135 is under 2" at fifty yards out of a rest. 5.2 gr out of a 5" M&P with a KKM barrel is 1157 Average FPS over 22 shots. 1118 average FPS over 24 shots 929. 5.6 BE @1.12" oal with a Zero 147 gr JHP is also a good load. 22 shot average 5" M&P is 938 FPS. 24 shot average 938 FPS 929. Next project is 125 JHP .38 Tom

I played with a couple M&P 2.9 today and the trigger reset is much better than my 5" pro. Tom

When it does not function as expected you are in the pits behing the wall going many laps down. Tom

The real point is in this game like my real job working on race cars, the issue is cure the sympton do not fix the problem. Which many times leads to other problems. Best line I have heard is how is your day going..." shooting alligators instead of draining the swamp" That makes me smile. Tom

Wrong ...use an RCBS or other hand priming tool to seat primers flush. Did this for years with my revolvers before the 1050. Tom
