  1.      "Curved face version. Not the flat face."

     

     

    Not sure what the basis/logic is for that conclusion.  The rules state:

    8.2.1.2 SSP Permitted Modifications (Inclusive list):

    1. Sights may be changed to another notch and post type. Slides may not be machined to accept different style sights.

    2. Grips may be changed to another style or material that is similar to factory configuration and do not weigh more than 2.00 oz. more than the factory standard weight for that model.

    3. Magazine releases, slide stops, safety levers, de-cocking levers, hammers, and triggers, that are stock on one SSP legal firearm may be used on another SSP legal firearm from the same manufacturer provided they are drop in replacements. Parts in this list must come factory installed on standard production firearms. Special parts that are available installed only from a factory custom shop are not eligible in SSP.

    Since the both the curved and flat triggers are from GGI and not Sig, I would think neither of them would be IPDA legal.  




    I don't play the IDPA thing anymore because I like to shoot.

    All those rules say to me is; when the Vtac is approved, flat face triggers will be legal in SSP.

    Too many Glocks with aftermarket triggers that look identical get by in SSP all the time. I did it when I shot SWIN a few years back.

    If it's an obvious replacement, then you just flip over to ESP.

    Not my rules, it's how the game is played.
  2. I do all the extra steps that many hate.

    Range brass by the tons. Separate calibers (I load most pistol stuff). I run short sessions (20 minutes) with primers to remove dirt. Dry. Dedicated press for primer removal. Tumble for 2 hours. Dry.

    Reload.

    I don't mind the extra steps. My sons also help out so it's time for us to bond.

  3. N320 is good powder.  Is it some kind of magic? No.  

    I shoot it and Ramshot Comp.  I shoot N320 at majors because my load is consistent, it's accurate, and burns clean. 

    In response to the poster saying Ramshot Comp was softer... meh, not that I've noticed.  However, my take on powders "feeling" different is that it's not all that important.  172PF pretty much feels like 172PF.  The tiny recoil characteristic differences are not going to affect your shooting.

    This IS racing though... and there is always the need to chase perfection. 

     

    1.135" Is a good length for Glocks with a PD jhp... start at 4.5-4.6gn of N320 (that will probably be to soft).


    You're right. This is racing.

    Our feelings about our individual experiences vary, and that's why we race and have fun doing it.

    I'm shooting a different gun now and maybe N320 will have a different feel at a different OAL. It's off season for me and a good time to try some things out.
  4. I have some data for this.

    I heard and gave into the hype of N320. Personally, I bought 4lbs and won't use it. I don't get what I've read. It's nowhere near as soft as Ramshot Comp with the same PF.

    OAL was 1.135. Same bullet. PD JHP. I also did 4.6gr at the same OAL with Zero FMJ and they were reading a little slower. Avg 163 PF.

    Maybe I'll use the N320 for 9mm.

    This was for my G35. I just didn't get the good feel that I've read about.
