Extractor. Hook sheared right off.

I did not like the feel of the transition of the grips to the front strap. Too much of a ledge for me. I did like the way it felt in the palm however. I normally use slim VZs.

I had one go down in the same manner on a Dan Wesson Valor with around the same round count. Ordered and fitted two extras just in case. Talking to others, it seems that we are on the low end of the spectrum as far as round count goes.

Thanks! I think I'll try the same. I noticed some play in the bullet in the dummy rounds I made when crimping in the cannelure.

What OAL are most loading this bullet to? I have mine set at 1.195, with the case rim in the cannelure of the bullet. Crimp is at .471.
Do you seat above, below, or in the cannelure?
Thanks

4.6gr Vectan 9.5
1.250 OAL, crimped to .471 gets me 739fps average out of a Dan Wesson Valor at sea level.

Where are you guys seeing up to date results?

That looks like it will work!

i want the 16rnd nickel plated ones, any manufacturer. not that easy here in CA.
Following up on this as I'm in the same situation in Hawaii. I just need an alternative to the factory blued mags as things tend to rust extremely quickly here.
Ideally, I would have a nickel body with a limiter/plug.
Thanks

Three to four 20 min dry fire sessions per week plus three sessions of some sort of cardio training.
I'm usually running through the drills from your book.

I noticed that they increase the OAL by about .005 compared to other mixed brass. Works fine, but it did affect accuracy.
Exact same experience with regards to OAL. CBC consistently loads longer.

My grip cannot last more than 20 - 30 minutes a session. Weak hand fingers start getting numb.
BTW, Ben's latest dry fire book is an absolutely stellar piece of instruction. Micro drills, explanations on WHY and WHAT you are working on, and sample dry fire schedules.

Awesome job. Thanks a bunch for the data! Any range results?

I use 4.6 for 124/125 jacketed/plated at 1.110
4.2 for 124/125 coated at the same OAL
3.6 for 147 plated/jacketed at 1.145
3.4 for 147 coated at 1.120
All do 130 PF in my guns YMMV.
Good info, I got lucky last month to find 8lb jug of this powder, will do some testing soon!
Nice find! Only 1 lb bottles here, but glad I could find something

Thanks. When I punched in my data I got info for the Berry's bullet. Is it safe to assume that I can use the data for a plated hollow back bullet for a coated flat base one?

Would anyone have some data on Bayou 124 RN or BBI 125 RN over IMR 7625? Most of the data I find is for plated or jacketed HP or Berry's with the hollow back.
I did see the IMR 7625 thread over on the CZ forums for a load for the BBI, but wanted to see if there were others out there.
Thanks!

Walther Q5 Match steel frame or Sig 320 Legion?
in "Other" & Pistol Comparisons
Posted
Handled both and ended up with the Walther.
I liked the balance better on the SF and despite the grips being a tad too thick for me, pointed and handled better.
Trigger is a no contest win for the Walther despite it being heavier and a smidge longer reset. Just could not get a feel for the squishy Sig trigger.
If you have bigger hands, the Sig has longer grips and will fit better. I have small hands and my palm is at the end of the grip.
Sig sights looked better, but I was going to go with a dot anyway so that didn’t play into my decision.
