Just purchased my 1st CZ Shadow 2 OR and was trying to decide on what optic plate to get. I was looking at C & H Precision, but would appreciate any input from the forum on any other options. Thanks!

That sounds like a good plan to take up. Thanks!

Currently I'm in my first year in USPSA, and the feel of shooting 147's is less snappy, but don't notice a difference between 125 or 147 grain bullets using the same powder (N320). I have been told stay with 147's because there flatter shooting. I tend to see the dot better with the heavier bullet in practice, but not so at a local match.. so do I shoot both in practice and then decide?

Most likely is your thumb is riding the slide stop, allowing it to not lock back.

R. P. = Remington- Peters Corporation.

Benstoegerproshop has them.

I take about 200 rounds (9mm), 2-3 squirts of Hornady One Shot, shake for 30 seconds and then dump into arco bin, reload.

I have a Glock 17 gen5 and reload using Bayou & Blue bullets. I recently loaded up some Bayou 135's and Blue's 125 RN. My O.A.L. was 1.120-1.140 with Bayou, but could not load past 1.125 for the 125's(.356), I've heard that the 125 TC in Blues works with no overall length restrictions. Anyone have experience loading to a longer length with a bullet profile that fits gen5 without reaming the barrel? I like the accuracy of the blue 125's ,but would like more wiggle room in the cartridge using N320. Thanks!

Actually I just checked, Bayou’s will plunk at 1.114(gen5), so I’m going with this OAL.

Plunk tested: had to go to COAL 1.115 using Bayou 124RN; 1.110 w/ Blues 125RN.

I was getting “ failing to fully go into battery “. I tried Bayou 120TC, didn’t work; 124RN did.

I recently purchased a gen5, 17 and also have a G17 gen3; went to the range and had some feeding issues with the gen 5 with various bullet profiles (FP, RN and different COL). The bullet diameter is .356, and I'm wondering if I need .355..Thanks in advance if anyone out there has dealt with solved the problem.

DK closed shop; Johnnyglocks is the way to go!

Tough decision.. I'll likely go MOS, and later get another slide milled for my G17.

Are your friends milled slides for glock? I ask because Glocks POA is lower than 1911's, CZ's, etc.

How much lower would a milled slide be over MOS slide? Thanks!

Thanks! The cost difference for non MOS is about $80. I’ll go for MOS.

I’m trying to decide if it’s better to get a G17 gen 5 and have it milled for a Holosun 507c optic, or buy the mos version. I have read that having it custom milled would provide for for better fit and lower fit to slide.

Thanks! I’m looking to get a G17 mos. CO is gaining fast in USPSA from what I’ve seen in my area matches.

How long did it take you to adjust to CO from iron sights?

Tha1000 - ya I had it backwards lol. I’ll bump up powder a bit, hopefully that’ll do it, or I’ll order an 11 or 12lb. spring. Thanks!

My PF is about 130. No brass to face but some come back to top of my cap. With stock 17lb. spring, ejection pattern was better, but that was with factory ammo.

Hi. I have a gen 3, Glock 17 and I shoot minor PF reloads. I have a Jager guide rod with a 13lb. ISMI recoil spring. At times, brass doesn't get ejected very well (maybe 2ft.). Should I go with a 15lb. spring instead? Thanks! Paul
