  1. Trying to find some accuracy. The .355 coated (blues) are terribly inaccurate in my G17. .356 dia coated are better, but still lacking quite a bit. Looking to find a .357 dia in a 147g and/or 125g to test out my luck.
  2. Just bought some 147g to try out after seeing a post in another thread. Should get out to test them tomorrow.
  3. Am I reading this right. G17 with Montana Gold 124g JHP over Power Pistol shot the best @25yds. Been searching for an accurate bullet.
  4. I’m curious about what the major matches, like Nationals uses to cover the barrels.
  5. Blue Bullets at their standard .355 shot like garbage out of both my G17's at 25yds. (147g FP) Slightly better with H&S and SNS at 147g. Everglades 147g FMJ RN and Extreme's both shot best. Just ordered some Blue Bullets at .356 and some of the DG bullets to see if there is any difference.
  6. I use a 32oz mixed nut (or cashew) container. Holds 500+ rounds of 9mm. I have dozens of them.
  7. It has a defined wall and pretty crisp break in my G17’s. In conjunction with the Zev “comp” trigger spring, 4.5lb spring (one has the Wolff, feels the same) and an Apex plunger.
  8. I didn’t want a rolling brake. I swapped out my 3.5lb Ghost connector for a Zev V4 race because of the roll. I might go back to it now to see if I like it.
  9. Since CO has been becoming more popular, I've looked at converting my back up G17 into a CO gun. I've read a bunch of earlier posts on the topic, including the multi-brief from Feb. 2016. Does that still hold true? "Note that many Production division guns can be easily modified to compete in Carry Optics as well as Production, but be cautious with the modifications you make, as many will render your Production gun illegal for that division. You can mill the slide of a production legal gun to install an optic, and replace the optic with a filler plate for competition in Production without risk." http://multibriefs.com/briefs/uspsa/USPSA020416.php
  10. I’m going with the dovetail mount for starters, to see if CO is something I’ll shoot from time to time. I’ll go the milled aftermarket slide if I enjoy it.
  11. I don’t watch much TV, but this looks like something I might try. Can probably get the wife to watch since she was(is) a big “The Office” fan.
  12. My first ever match I was the first shooter. Probably wouldnt have mattered if I shot 10th.
  13. Looking like I’ll have to try the JHP next. My G17 didn’t shoot Blue Bullets 147g worth a damn. (.355) May try the .356 just to be fair.
  14. I just tried a sample pack of the Everglades 147g FMJ and I liked what I got. Going to try their 124’s now.
  15. In Cali, they have arrest powers 24/7, they are considered Peace Officers. Same as AZ. In Nevada, they only have arrest powers while on duty.
  16. Good point. I would consider National Guard "Military" on that basis. Just a question that was floating around in my head. I'm none of the above, so It doesn't really affect me, just curious how USPSA handled it.
  17. Federal Corrections Officers have arresting powers. Different states also have sheriffs deputies work jails. Not so easy an answer.
  18. I looked around but couldn’t find an answer. As far as catergories go, do Corrections Officers qualify as “Law Enforcement”?
  19. I just tested some loads through my G17 and my buddies Shadow 2. My groups were much better with the Shadow 2, a Gun I’ve only shot maybe 30rds through. ?
  20. That’s fantastic. Yeah, hopefully you have a good range somewhere close enough to utilize.
