+1 for Montana gold. They are reasonable in price and with JHP I have no leading issues.

I've had a couple of PM with Brian Enos and he recommended slide glide as a lubricant for my 1050. He didn't say whether to use the regular or the heavy. Anyone have an idea which one is best?

Try that in a competition! Also loading a magazine with 3 rounds in it gives your friends a good chuckle during a competition.

Gunbug beat me to it. I did my first steel challenge two weeks ago and had to work transitions for practice. I can already see the improvement translating over into USPSA.

So is the consensus that the TT can hold one more round of 38 super?

Thanks biglou.

New to competition shooting and was a little depressed to see I was a D class shooter. I've shot for years and thought I was "better than average". I'm shooting for C class by end of year.

Good drill. I did the exact same drill both facing forward and turning around. I'm new to competition shooting but my par time was under 5 sec. I'll have to work in this during the week and I'll let you know how low I can get it

I'm at 0.3 sec differential also but I'm closer to 1.7 sec

I'm doing the same and they have cut my Par times by 30% in less than one month.

Took some inspiration from your post and switched to 8. Much better! I also put on an Arrendondo sun shade cover. I had to modify it but it helped even more.

I had this exact scenario that the OP described. I traded the recoil master with a Dawson tooless and switched from microlon to slide glide lite. No issues since then.

I'm using 14# as well and I use a small buffer from EGW.

I read in the forum on how to improve eye dominance. Done posts recommended putting tape on the non-dominant eye lens. I put a little dawn dish soap on my left lens to make it very slightly blurry and did dry fire practice for two weeks every day. I was having a lot of problems "finding my dot". After the dawn trick I have made dramatic improvement.

Just ordered 16 lbs of VV N350 from Midsouthshooterssupply.com. Best price I could find on the net at $108 for 4# jugs. They also have VV 3n37 in stock.

Do you need to use the lemishine and the cascade?

+1 on the EGW buffs.

I tumble all of my mags in a rotary tumbler with corn cob with the green colored jewelers rouge which is the correct color for stainless steel (available at harbor freight). I broke the rouge up into small pieces and tumbled for 24 hours. The mags come out with a mirror finish and my feed lip dimensions did not change.

I have a thumblers B, a habor freight vibratory tumbler, and the Frankford Arsenal and the FA is the best you can get IMHO. Don't forget to get the magnet to pick up the pins with.

I put red colored hot glue from a glue gun and injected it through the primer hole. After it hardened I shaved it flat with a razor blade. Now I have snap caps that are easy to identify and the hot glue can be hit many times with the firing pin during dry fire. I also put orange nail polish in the jhp so I have two visual indicators. My friend also put a really heavy crimp as well. With the heavy crimp and hot glue the bullet doesn't move. I imaging silicone caulking could do the same thing as the glue but it would dent easily with firing pin strikes. Good luck. Doc

I have an Ed brown with snakeskin front strap and slide serrations and love it. I would call them

What exactly did you do to tune the extractor?

+1 on both zig and brazos
