    If you can single sight picture 2A at 35 why are you still experimenting. it is fun though so go ahead I guess. I will probably keep changing things forever

    I wouldn't ramp your barrel either unless you start getting feeding issues. Also I like a fast powder for snappier recoil. User preference. You won't see any benefit in compensator pressure or anything. Recoil will just feel a bit slower.

    Nailed it, doing it just for kicks. Besides if I don't experiment with other loads I'll constantly ask myself "what if". And n320 is pricey and aa#7 isn't, so there's always that need to save a buck LOL.

     

    My fear with not ramping the barrel is that I don't want it to start having issues in the middle of a match. 

     

    So so let me ask you this, Max, if it runs flawless now, do you think I could potentially upset the balance by ramping?

  2. Took my rig to the range Friday and match in Saturday. Using 130pf ammo and the jpscs with 90% spring, 3 SS & 1 tungsten weights. The bullets are 147 flat nose bayou bullets. The gun ran flawlessly and the dot movement is minimal. Practing double taps at 35' I am able to keep them well within the A! I'm pretty happy with it now. 

     

    I still plan to work on the barrell extension like Max showed. And I'm going to change from N320 and work up a load with a slower burning powder and see what else I can do. 

     

    Any suggestions on slow burning powder?

    And hes faster now. Check out some of the more recent videos lol. 

     

    **oh and pretty sure he is running round nose 115 grains right now**

    Well I'll B, no wonder he knows his $hit.  

    I think 3 things about that video.

    1. I feel bad for some of those RO's trying to keep up.

     

    2. I think that video is playing on 2x speed ?

     

    3. That barrel has zero flip!!

     

    Very awesome Max!

  4. Max, you certainly seem to know your stuff and I appreciate this thread being hijacked in the manner that it has!

     

    So to clarify something, after you essentially created a feed ramp with your dremel tool did you still have problems using the flat nosed 147's?  I know you say a round nose would be more reliable  (and now I know why) but I have several hundred 147's and I'm now somewhat hesitant to use them as I plan on shooting my ATi milspec in my very first pcc match this weekend.

    i bought this because a buddy had one and was telling me how good it performed for him. I am amazed by this trigger! Mine actually pulls crisply at 2.75lbs and does everything right. I think I'm going to get one for each AR I own! They also have the same system with a curved trigger as well.

  6. I ran my pcc for the first time today with the jp scs setup exactly as Eric's and I really like it. I was able to hit double taps within  2" groups at 40' many times over and over using 147gr bayou bullets loaded to 138pf. With the buffer in the stock form I couldn't get the doubles within 3 or probably even 4" at only 20' away. I'm anxious to see what I can do with my 130pf ammo (I didn't have it with me, I grabbed the wrong box)

     

    Btw, Eric, thanks for all your tips and suggestions thus far. I think I'm ready for a match!

  7. Finally able to shoot this afternoon and test things out. So far so good as the system works great and The handguard feels good in my hands and didn't come loose after 100 rounds or so.

     

     

     

    Range report forthcoming 

  8. So I got the 15" matrix along with an eBay comp installed and they both look and feel solid. Hopefully I'll hit the range in the next couple off days to see how they feel along with my jpscs spring with reduced weight spring and 3 SS weights and powder puff loads. 

     

    Range report forthcoming

    Hello: I don't know what the carrier weight is on the new buffer but I do know the weight of the weights. Tungsten weights are 1.4815ozs, steel weights are 0.6949ozs so you can figure out what the total of all the weights are for the two buffers. If you are running reloads get the 4 weight buffer and make it lighter. If you are running factory ammo in a 14.5-16" barrel I may think of getting the other buffer but still think the 4 weight one will work fine. I am running 16" barrels with lightened buffer setup with 147 grain bullet in the 134PF range. Thanks, Eric

    Eric, this may be splitting hairs, but do you have a preference on where the 1 tungsten weight falls amongst the 3 SS weights? I'm sure it doesn't make a shits difference, but curious if you have an opinion on that?

    If you're running a Dillon press, it can vary as much as .1gr per throw. Also, mixed brass will have an effect on consistency. 

    True on the Dillon, and the brass was mixed, but it was once fired and ultrasonic cleaned and no military

  11. 9mm 147 bayou bullets

    1.130 oal

    mixed brass

    cci primers 

    n320 2.8/2.9/3.0

    16" barrel 

    Ati milsport 

     

    so today the 3 loads were tested. Prior to changing each powder level the loader was cycled several times than the grains measured 3x for accuracy. 

     

    2.8 of n320 ran a pf averaged to 130.6

     

    2.9 of n320 ran a pf of 137

     

    heres where things get weird...

    3.0 of n320 ran a pf of 137.8

     

    and with all rounds the brass is wicked dirty afterwards

  12. Update. 

    Loaded 147 bayou bullets

    3.0 n320

    1.125 OAL

     

    my setup is using the 9mm JPSCS II as is with no midofication.

     

    the loads worked, but my dot movement was more with my reloads that they were with factory blazer 115 ammo. 

     

    I shout about 50 of each and would even put 5 & 5 in the same mag to see if I was  hallucinating, but the factory moved less. 

     

    To get even stranger, the factory had more felt shoulder recoil, but the 147's made the gun bounce more. 

     

    Thoughts?

    Looks like you got if all sorted, but just in case anyone else is looking...

     

    I love the Seekins SP3R handguard.  Im 6'2" also and the 15" fits me perfectly.  Have them on all my match rifles.

     

    Still playing with the optic position.

    Good looking weapon! 

     

    My matrix showed up today and I'm beside myself at how well built an light it is for the price.

     

    meanwhike, I actually put a seekins in my hand today and I really liked the feel of it with that flat bottom. If I build another it is forst on my list.
