    Check your email too on match day. I drove for an hour last year only to get to an empty parking lot and the match director telling me the match was canceled because of impending rain. Had I looked at my email before I left, I'd had seen that. At home!

    Okay. Good! I feel like I just found $200.00. I abandoned trying to look "cool" years ago.

    Other than doing slide cuts to get a Shadow 2 or a Stock II to make weight, does it offer any advantage to making cuts on a pistol that's already legal? Like an SP-01.

    I run 3.5 of 231 under 147 gr. TC 1.125 OAL. The Hodgdon site only shows Berry's Hollow Base 124 gr. at 3.9. and a OAL of 1.15. I'd start there.

    I switched to ACME just recently. They were the best deal I could find of all the coated ones. I've gone through about 3000 without any problems. More accurate? I haven't noticed a discernible difference. They don't pull out easily in my RCBS bullet puller. Only about half the the time and it puts a bite ring around the whole circumference. I would say that's my only downside. Copper plated pop right out and are still in perfect condition.

    Yep. Or yourself. When I fumbled a mag and inadvertently and instinctively tried to grab it, I just barely muzzled myself while in slide lock. DQ! Now I think about doing whatever I can NOT to DQ at every start.

    If I had to choose from those 3, I'd go with the M&P 9mm already able to accept the RMR. A little more investment upfront, but cheaper ammo. less recoil to get dot back on target, more ammo in the 140mm mags. 40 offers no advantage in this division.

    I want to order the +4 Mag extensions for my existing CZ SP-01 18 Round tubes. Has anyone done this without changing spring and follower? Capacity? Reliable feeds?
  9. kipdynamite
    Order a dovetail for your CZ? That's what I did. My slide is still being milled, but I'm curious to see if the indexing is going to be effected.

    I have Shadows, so I carry a few in my range bag. They seem to go down about every 10-15k.
  11. kipdynamite
    Slowly on my 650. I've re-used all of them. They've all gone off.
  12. kipdynamite
    I researched for a while. When it was time the DPP was the clear winner.
  13. kipdynamite
    Hum...Might have to check these out. Pricing is good.
  14. kipdynamite
    147 TC in my Shadows. No issues at all. 147 RN can be persnickety out past 1.14 COL.
  15. kipdynamite
    For me I guess it didn't really matter. I've yet to shoot in either division.
  16. kipdynamite
    The RO was a friend and a GM who brought me along to see how I liked it, so the former is most likely the reason.
  17. kipdynamite
    I made the same mistake with an unloaded start at my first match, but got moved to limited minor.
  18. kipdynamite
    I went with Primary Machine. About $180 Black Nitride refinishing.

    I stand half the time. My wife is a photographer, so I use one of her stools to sit when I'm doing it for a long while. They have the most adjustment and can be set pretty high. BH Photo sells them relatively cheap.
  20. kipdynamite
    I've always just used the CZC thin alum. and Pro Grip. Seems to work well.

    I don't think any gun with an SAO is legal in Prod, regardless if it's a 1911 or not.
  23. kipdynamite
    I bought the DPP 2.5, but didn't even un-box it. It went straight to Primary Machine to be put on my slide. All I read pointed to this one. I've got a Razor 3 MOA on a dovetail mount and haven't had any issues, but the auto on/off and changing the battery without un-mounting was the icing on the cake.
  24. kipdynamite
    I used to run Titegroup, but recently switched to WIN 231. It's been working well. Softer shooting too.
  25. kipdynamite
    I have only shot Production for the last few years. Just now getting into CO. I shoot about the same 2-3.
