Just because the sight is centered on the slide, does not mean in is centered over the barrel, drift the sight and shoot those groups in the center of the target
We hold SC matchs here in Central Cal, we welcome what ever you got, and I think most clubs do, after all first place receives an Atta Boy, if you want to get serious then get all the equipment that meets the requirements of a SC division.
Use your trigger finger, and you'll never have a AD when slamming a mag in, most AD I've seen are right hand shooters during a load and not getting there finger off the trigger, power to the lefties.
70 here in Central Cal, we have a match Sunday, not trying to rubbing in to you folks were outside activity is difficult, everything is a give and take, are gun laws suck, and are weather is great.
H110 and 4227 are king for the full house load, my load for my 357 10in Freedom Arms Is 15.5 gr of H110 pushing a 180gr XTP, if you can't buy the 180 XTP, try 14.5gr of 4227 pushing a 200gr cast bullet, these are the two loads I use for IHMSA matchs.
If your going to shoot production and maybe go to limited, G3 35, loaded down 40 makes a great production gun bigger holes make good line cutters few more points, and it makes a good limited gun. Just a thought.
Yup agree with back from the dead, don't worry about it, just toss the failures in box and use for practice, I find that 99.9% of those failures run just fine.
Just saw the news, some crazy weather in St George, interstate 15 washed out, I'm heading over on the 20th from California (ok no Cal jokes heard them all) hope the range is ok, interstate 15 looked bad on the news.
