I thought CZs have 1/10?

Do 147, 124 and 115gr bullets shoot better out of barrels with certain twist rates?

Do most GMs and Ms practice classifiers to help get their ranking?

Looks like there is a Strongmount made for the 650 (6.5") and one made for the 550/650 (8.5") For the XL 650, is one better than the other?

My Glock 17 (4.5") gets about 5 PF less than my Glock 34 (5.3") with the same load.

How long is your M&P barrel? Longer barrel = higher velocity.

Been having good results with EWL30. Same formula as EWL but in a 30 weight viscosity. Doesn't dry out or run off.

For an SP-01 Shadow with the re-profiled slide stop - what is the longest OAL it can run reliably? I'm using 147gr Xtreme RN.

I don't know how your local clubs are, but the ones around here - you find plenty of "competitive" shooters who just enjoy shooting the local match. They arn't interested in winning or getting better - they just enjoy guns, shooting and the cameraderie. They don't run drills or practice. The match IS their practice.

Let's look at it by the official numbers: 2014 active members = 23,747 GM = 1.5% M = 5.8% A = 10.6% B = 24.8% C = 40.9% D = 16.5% Most shooters = C + B = 65.7% of the classified membership. 65.7% = 15,601 of which 62.3% are C shooters and 37.7% are B shooters. Now take out those that do drills, practice and dry fire - and only take shooters that shoot matches once a week max. What is the best they are going to rank? My guess would be C.

I meant your average shooter, average natural talent, not practicing and only shooting matches once a week max.

I was talking about 1 match per week max. And if you don't care, why are you posting in this thread?

What is the highest classification do you think most shooters can attain by natural talent and shooting matches alone? No practice, drills or dry fire.

I have had very good results with my 550b and Lee dies. I recently switched to the EGW U-die (made by Lee) and that in combination with the FCD, yields 99/100 rounds passing my EGW case gauge using mixed headstamps.

I realize that the CZC Short Reset Trigger System ($135) is hand-fitted, but how much shorter is the reset in SA compared to the Pre-B Disconnector?

Yes, it was a very good investment and keeps the charges consistent.

Thanks. So single action pre-travel is about the same?

Is there any difference in the single action pre-travel, between the Pre-B disconnector from CZC and the CGW type-1 disco?

Some interesting data: AAA 147gr crimp = .376 (measured different head-stamps) Win White Box 115gr crimp = .375 Fed Champion 115gr crimp = .375

Interesting formula. Anyone have a ransom rest and some free time to test different crimp measurements?

Saami specs are .380 to .381 for 9mm

Would .383 pass the case gauge?

I'm getting .0135 for WIN brass and .012 for FC brass. I use Xtreme 147gr plated, which are .356 So WIN=.383 and FC=.380?

Yes, makes sense. It will be interesting to see what you find with the Standard Lee and thin walled cases.

Have you found too much crimp effects accuracy? I have been crimping to .377 - What measurement do you find gives the best accuracy in 9mm?
