So I assuming your main gun went down and you were not able to make a range repair. So what was your primary and backup and did they give a specific reason for not allowing it.
This ^^^ is why I don't wet tumble. Lot of work. It is the cleanest brass but a lot of extra steps and I was always concerned the brass was not dry and would cause issues with the powder or primer. Dry tumbling is just simplier and does a good job.
I am running them through my 550 with full length sizer. I was shooting these loads through my Glock 35 and never had an issue. I will admit I am bad at quality control and do not case Gage but that should not be an issue as they are feeding and firing. Correct?
I am trying to diagnose my failure to extract problem. I recently purchased the gun new. Love the gun but have had 4 failure to extracts in about 600 rounds. Today was 2 in a 100 on classifiers. Yep pretty much washed them. The case is staying in the camber and the slide is functioning. It grabs another round and causes a double feed.
The extractor looks good as well as the spring. Everything is still stock on the gun and I am running the heaviest recoil spring that came with the gun ( 10.75lbs???).
I am just looking to for possible solutions. Plan on getting a new extra power extractor spring and extractor just to make sure.
Any other thoughts???
don't know exacty where you live, but check out mnuspsa.org and go to match calender. It has all the USPSA events, plus most clubs put there other events (steel challenge) on there as well.
I have pretty much exclusively run titegroup. It is a hot powder but it is around the cheapest. $20 a pound pretty much anywhere. It is always usually available because a lot of people seem to prefer 231 or 320 but they are the first to complain that they can not get powder. I don't really notice the difference. I just picked up #12. For me it is about cost and availability.
