Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Yes! I have since loaded 500 more rounds without issue. Appreciate everyone's assistance. Thank you!
  2. Yes, it is tight. I loaded 300 rounds Sunday after tightening down the shell plate and will be testing this weekend. Thank you for the insight! Now that the shell plate is tightened back down the rounds are sittings flat on flat surfaces with no rocking back and forth. After I get to the range this weekend I will report back.
  3. The seating punch/die seems to be tight. I tightened down the shell plate and I think that might have solved my problem. Can the shell plate being too loose have an effect on primer seating?
  4. Yes, they all fired on the second strike. Sounds like high primers is the issue. I will check that. Thank you!
  5. I have a Dillon 650 that I have been loading on for a few years now. Never had any issues until now.. I loaded 500 rounds for a range session last month and had 60%-70% or more of the rounds give me light strikes with two different Gen 5 Glocks. These guns are all stock as far as the internals go and confirmed with a friends gun and ammo that was with me that its not the guns but definitely this batch of ammo I loaded. Can anyone provide some insight on the most probable causes of light strikes or what to look for on the 650 to see what could have changed to start causing this? Thank you!!

    DAWSON FRONT SIGHTS

    Thanks! It does; the distance from B-C is different between the Dawson and stock CZ sight. Based on the image I posted above, CZC measures from A-C to get their front sight heights, and Dawson measures from A-B. Maybe once Stuart gets back into the office Monday he can take some measurements of A-B, B-C, and A-C on the P-series 6.5mm CZC Fiber front sight. Depending on how far off the B-C measurements are between Dawson and CZC sights the A-B distance should be a fairly straight forward conversion. 6.5mm converts to .255906 inches... Based on the measurements you provided B-C for the Dawson is .075. .255" (A-C / 6.5mm) - .075" (B-C) = .180" A-B. So I would need a .180" Dawson front if I am on the right track here.

    DAWSON FRONT SIGHTS

    Magsz and or anyone else with a CZ Custom P-09 front sight, a stock CZ P-09 front sight and a Dawson P-09 front sight, could you take the following measurements as explained in this photo listed in the first post? A to B, B to C, and A to C.

    DAWSON FRONT SIGHTS

    Magsz, what rear sight are you pairing that .170" tall front sight with? My dilemma is pairing a .100" wide Dawson front sight with the CZ Custom HTAC rear sight on my P-07. CZC recommends a 6.5mm tall front sight with the HTAC rear on a P-07. Couple the fact that CZC and Dawson use different units to measure their front sights, they measure their front sight height from different points as you stated. Any input on how to use the formula that is posted at the beginning of this thread to figure out what front sight height to have Dawson make me for my P-07 would be greatly appreciated. Since it will not be standard height they offer it is an extra $10 to order and I don't want to play the trial and error game if I can use a little bit of math and try to wrap my head around all of this lol.

    DAWSON FRONT SIGHTS

    Reviving this thread... Would the "formula" posted early on this thread apply to the P-07/P-09 series guns? I am curious if the depth of the dovetail is standardized on the CZs or different between the 75/SP-01 series and the P-series guns. If anyone is able to; could you get a measurement of the overall height of your CZ P-series front sight, blade height and dovetail height as was done at the beginning of this thread? Thanks!!
  10. Toyotafrank missed your post! Thanks for all the info, I will be in touch. @The Donald Might make the drive down to Austin every now and then to shoot a match
  11. Awesome! That range is exactly what I am looking for. That is a bummer about the matches being cancelled due to lack of interest. Thanks!!
  12. Hey Guys, Just moved to Plano, Texas. Any info on local clubs/matches or who to get in touch with would be great! Also if anybody has any info on good outdoor range(s) nearby that would allow me to shoot & train (draw from holster, move around, shooting on the move, set up mini stages, etc.). Thanks!
  13. Does the frame have the higher cuts under the trigger guard and beavertail like a SP-01 shadow on these or is it a 75 frame?
  14. Curious about this as well. As a right handed shooter, I get very high up on the gun with my support hand and have verified that it is not my right hand thumb putting pressure on the slide stop. For me it is the meat of my support hand palm right below the base of my thumb that puts pressure on the slide stop and disabling its ability to lock back when empty. Anyone else have this issue?
