New Limcat grip weighs about 5oz less than other grips if memory serves me correctly.
I prefer silicone carbide over stippling any day.

I have owned one SV 9mm IMM and it ran fine but only owned it for a short time. The other two I have had are Limcat Phanterras and they are utterly reliable. Of course I do my part with keeping them clean and lubed up and also checking and sorting brass, etc. The only issue I have had (which cost me the match) was a broken STI mag catch and it caused the craziest of symptoms. Now I run only Dawson and they work perfectly and prevent over insertion. Both of my Limcats were bought used from the original owners. To me the gun builder backing the gun makes all the difference. Johnny is incredible and his guns have a lifetime warranty regardless of owner. I just bought my third open gun (Beastcat) and will be selling my Phanterra to some lucky buyer out there who gets to enjoy a gun that runs and runs and has an incredible company backing it.

I have (2) 170mm and (3) 140mm and they run great. I have been reloading with 140mm as that is what I am used to for limited. That being said, all the locals told me if I was buying new get the 155mm for open reloads and use one big stick to start. For me since I will be shooting both open and limited I will stick with 140mm for reloads.

I always take material off the cheapest part. Also you are more likely to change the magwell in the future than the grip.
Very true. What did you use to remove the material? Do you happen to have a picture of the modified magwell?

I spoke to Johnny Lim yesterday as I am needing a V2 for my PT Evo grip. He said it's best to grind the little tabs off of the grip. He may just not like taking material off of his magwell but I would imagine both methods word. Either way, this is the only magwell I will use moving forward. Fits my hands perfectly and feels incredible.
I will try and post pics of my limited gun (with PT Evo grip) with magwell removed to show the tabs that were ground down.

The Gen1 bodies are crazy solid for all my guns. I had a couple Gen2 and had issues with them and sold them. Currently I am using all Gen1 tubes with Grams guts and TTI basepads for my open gun and MBX 140mm for my limited gun. Both are great.

Med flat, but I had a GM tell me to try a short flat to help with trigger freeze.
Interesting. I’ve ran a long flat SV on all my guns and it feels like it has the most comfortable angle for my long fingers but the trigger freeze comment makes me think. I do get trigger freeze every so often. May go shorter.

It has to be the heat. I will get it cleaned up and post results

OK. I’m not embarrassed to admit when I’ve been wrong. I’m new at all this and I’m just trying to find out the best way to do it.

I don’t have a blaster but going to buy a toaster oven. Haha

Could you explain the glass beed process?
Thanks

Add weight and make it flatter. I could tell the difference on my Hbar Phanterra
-
I’m using HS6 and like it a lot. It does get hot though as stated above. Has anyone tried N340 with 124 grain jacketed hollow point bullets? I came across about 13 pounds and Johnny Lim says it’s really really good. I have not used it yet.

What is the preferred method for getting these bad boys nice and clean again?

Having fired both the perfect sight h bar and the tracker, the perfect sight h bar was flatter shooting. Both were shot with 180 xtreme hp over n320 @ 1.18 .
These were friends guns that i shot , i never tried one in a match, just messing around on the range .
Thanks

For those that have/had a tracker or perfect sight what bullet weight did you end up with? I have always liked 200 but after trying 180 I did like the speed in which the slide worked and how the targets came back on track. The other site trackers I owned seems to be ok with both weights. A heavy Hbar perfect sight may like the 180 better but I don’t know.

The mags couldn’t go in any easier with the V2 magwell on my Phanterra. It does have Johnny’s new grip on it though

He’s local to me. What did you leave with and learn as say the top 5 things?

^^^This! I am pretty poor at stage design and like to see what the more experienced shooters will do and tweak my plan accordingly.
In every hobby I’m involved in I always will try to perform up to the next level. The key is to not shoot “out of your shoes” and try to go too fast or be like the top shooters. It’s a fine line.

I pretty much took the last 18 months off and have been playing competitive softball and coaching my daughters team. It’s been a blast and I am just now coming back to the forum more seriously and also competitive shooting. During the break I did a lot of recreational shooting and it was really fun to shoot my carry gun and my Gen5 G19. Forgot how fun it was to just shoot. Now it’s time to roll! I also learned to shoot what division you want and have fun!

Right hand shooter here and both eyes open is how I shoot but I noticed after watching a few recent videos that I am now tending to slightly squint my left eye maybe 20% to better focus with my dominant right eye. Weird. Need to see if it is hurting or helping me.

100 yards was easy with my Dan Wesson PM9.
150 yards with a Gans .40. The hold over was crazy but it wasn’t bad to hit the 10” plate once you figured it out.

With my PCC I could clear them quickly until I shot a falling steel match that had one on the last stage. It went completely the wrong direction than I expected and it was a disaster. I’ve never seen one spin that fast. Needless to say I need to work on it.
Limcat Razor Cat, Czechmate Parrot or Atlas Chaos?

Limcat for all the reasons listed prior to this post. Johnny is the best for a reason. Heck, he will reply to Facebook messages in the middle of the night!
