good info

agreed

very informative thread

Any certain ones you suggest? I'll be shooting open. Not sure if I stated that in original post. i'd be interested in this as well

do you think they will make an ssp trigger?

what a great resource!

I would love a 22 conversion!

thanks, that gives me a good on where to start. My pleasure. Please report back in what you find with your XD. I'll report back in this thread once I have chrono results on the Bayou. I plan to shoot off a bench after that and see if there are any differences in group size between charges and bullet type. will do. i'm still waiting on my n320, but should be here soon.

I'm using 4.0gr VV N320 with Xtreme plated and Berry's plated with a 180gr. Gives me about 740FPS on average (you only need to hit 695FPS to make PF in IDPA). That's out of a Glock 35 which is only a tad longer than your 5.25" (5.31"). As always, work up the load and use a chrono. I am experimenting with 3.8gr VVn320 with coated (Bayou) bullets and they "feel" the same but I have not had the chance to chrono them yet. Just wanted to see if they would cycle. But the recoil impulse felt almost identical. 3.6gr felt softer, but again I don't have velocity data yet. Probably in a month I will get time to setup and test some new loads. I used to have a guy load 180gr moly coated with 3.5gr of titegroup for me and they were a little hotter so they could cycle the gun with stock springs. That was before I started loading myself - I will have to see if I can find any of his old stuff in the safe and chrono it next time I have it setup. But for me, the smoke was a turn off. The coated stuff doesn't smoke so that is a plus. I'm still playing with it though. thanks, that gives me a good on where to start.

thanks for the info, care to share your load?

guess i need to get reloading!

I don't think it matters with the new rule since it does not come on an ssp factory gun, only as an option from the custom shop or PRP. I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time!

I received a reply from PRP today stating that they are waiting for a ruling and will let me know when they know for sure.

i plan to shoot idpa up at the iredell county fop range. what local matches do you shoot, or know of? There is also a USPSA match at that range you should check out. at the iredell county fop range? what days do they shoot?

Thanks!

what wt. would you suggest?

Thanks, mwdshooters.com looks promising.

thanks, which do you run?

What can be done to the xdm and still be an ssp gun? I'm a little confused about which prp kit would be allowed, and what else I can do. Any insight would be appreciated.

I'm looking to getting into some idpa action and was curious about the 200 grainers. Is there a reason most are shooting 180's? (coated bullets)
