If that is true then they are not legal IDPA targets and therefore they are not running an IDPA match.

Are you saying your targets have two circles in the head box? Or are you saying your targets have a single circle in the head box that is smaller than the currently legal target? Or are you guys just now getting around to using the current legal target which as a 4" down zero circle in the head box? Or...?

Very interesting. I guess I missed that thread. Thanks!

Not a direct answer but I typically load FMJ's longer like around 1.125/1.130. HP's more toward your 1.080 number. I have not done any extensive testing; just sort of arrived there somehow. Very scientific eh? Just curious about what appears to my eye to be loads on the short side and looking to learn. Thanks.

So... let's completely blow up the sport as it is currently defined, understood and happily enjoyed by what I will assume is the vast majority of it's participants other than the minority that occasionally posts otherwise. So not only does the squeaky wheel get the grease but the entire mechanism is going to be redesigned by someone who never understood how well the original worked. In what world does that make any sense?

I was hoping for a clean sheet rewrite which resulted from an analysis of previous rule book issues. I should have my head examined. What was I thinking...

This is rested on a range bag from about 50 feet. Original X5 with a Romeo 3 Max. Five round group.

Maybe. But you're obviously not the first person to bitch about the Legion. Kind of glad now that I stuck with the original X5.

So you're saying your FS was more accurate than the legion?

One thing I've learned about reloading is that if you talk to ten different reloaders you will hear about ten different ways to get from point A to point B. And that is not figuratively either. It'll will be ten different ways. And they all work. More or less...lol...

an interesting interpretation of the new rule book, you may be in the minority, lol...

In the "old days" a circus might have a "contortionist" act that could do all sorts of amazing things with their bodies... lol...

Wow, I didn't notice that first time through. That's mouse fart level loads. I wonder about how many calibration challenges on the big poppers...

I did not realize there were powder measure sensors that would detect a +/- 0.2 grain threshold reliably but I'm not knowledgeable about Mk 7 sensors. In my limited, non-Mk 7, experience powder checks are for "is there some powder in the case: yes/no" type checking.

Just a thought of off the top of my head... if this is a more generic powder measure related issue (as opposed to a Mk7 press issue) then how many rifle re-loaders are experiencing the same behavior but don't realize it?

It seems to me location is a huge part of this. A lot of older ranges in urban areas have had problems as subdivisions were built where once there just trees. I know where I'm living now there can be a cornfield one day and 100 houses the next.

Midwest Gun works has a full size barrel in stock. It does not say whether or not it has the LCI. https://www.midwestgunworks.com/page/mgwi/prod/BBL-MOD-F-9

It is a carry gun, not a competition gun. I didn't put it in to lower the trigger pull although it did by about a pound. I have the full GG kit in my competition guns. (X5's). I didn't like the break with the stock sear. It had a glitchy two stage kind of break. I had an extra GG sear so I tried that and it fixed the break. The fact that it ended up at around 3.5 pounds was not intentional; just a by product of the better sear.

I did not try mixing sear springs. Crisp break? In your other post you mentioned a "1911 trigger break". I think it is pretty good for a striker fired gun but it is not a 1911 trigger by any stretch. I think you'd have to get a gunsmith familiar with 320's to get closer to that. I've heard good things about Robert Burke, AKA "the SIg Armorer", but have no personal experience.

On my P320 compact (carry gun) I used the sear from the GG kit and used the stock trigger return and sear springs. That gave me approximately a 3.5 pound pull.

You'd think they would have but as far as I know they have not. There have been some fairly recent threads over on Sig Talk about the issue. I notified CHPWS over two years ago about the problem. It was a phone conversation so no record but they said something to the effect of "yeah we are aware; you must have purchased some old stock". That was obviously a bunch of bullsh!t because it is still happening. It may depend on the optic; I don't know. My issues were both with Holosun 507C mounting plates.

There have been a number of complaints about the screws that come with CHPWS plates for the P320 intruding into the extractor tunnel. I can attest to the fact that it happens. Twice. Not that big a deal to grind them down but annoying to find out after you have everything locktited into place and then to find out your extractor doesn't work.

So it sounds like you are saying that the Redding die was also crimping and that is not what you wanted? Can't it be adjusted to seat only? Many seating/crimping dies can be backed out so that no crimping takes place. I don't know if your Redding die allows the same flexibility; never used one.

Numrich had some in stock a week ago. https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/1903290

This is in the preamble to the actual SIG gun list: "All calibers and models of the Sig Model P320 modular line are allowed in compliance with current rules governing caliber, and magwells, with and without manual safeties."
